    The Good, The Bad, & The Snuggly

    Contributed by Jonathan Meyer on Nov 1, 2016
    based on 4 ratings
     | 12,495 views

    Jesus points to our salvation by the Father's grace alone, not by our works--first through a parable, and then in action as He welcomes children (even infants).

    The Word of God that engages us today is our Gospel reading from Luke 18. And in our Gospel reading, Jesus challenges the presuppositions of those around Him. Our Gospel reading is really broken down into two sections—and quite often you’ll get a sermon on one or the other, as if ...read more

    There are things God wants to build in you. There are things God wants to do for you. Many times we tie God's hands because of our ways. This sermon addresses this subject and encourages us to examine ourselves.

    Haggai 1:5-7 • Expound on the House of God NOT being built and the ramifications of it. • God’s response was… CONSIDER YOUR WAYS • God’s want to be THE PRIORITY in your life.

    God wants us to experience His adventure, His miraculous provision and defense, His Word, His will, and, like Jesus, His choice of ending to the story. The story may not be like the storybooks, fairy tales, and superhero movies. It may end in martyrdom.

    Revelation Chapter 11 continued 7. and when they have completed their testimony (witness), the beast will come out of the Abusso and make war with them, and overcome them and kill them. 8. and their bodies will be on the street of the great city, which is called spiritually Sodom and Egypt, where ...read more

    Week Three Series

    Contributed by Robert Butler on Mar 15, 2021
     | 2,349 views

    “Lent is one of the oldest observations on the Christian calendar. Like all Christian holy days and holidays, it has changed over the years, but its purpose has always been the same: self-examination and penitence, demonstrated by self-denial, in preparation for Easter.
