     | 4,709 views

    So what do we learn from this parable? We learn who the Father is, and what His nature is.

    Intro Today, Jesus tells us a parable, a story. You probably know the Parable of the Prodigal Son. And the point of the parable is simple: When the lost are found, you rejoice. Instead of being a spoilsport, looking down on someone else, you rejoice when a sinner repents, and you join the ...read more

     | 5,981 views

    All of us have pain, struggle, turmoil, and trouble; and we need to be reminded from where our comfort comes.

    The Comfort We Need 2 Corinthians 1:3-11 * There is an old adage which says, “You can lead a horse to water, but you can’t make him drink,” yet, this is not entirely accurate. If you need a horse to drink water, you can feed him salt to create a needy thirst. Before we actually get to God’s word, ...read more

    Running through Paul's writings is the power of the cross and our need to turn from our sinful nature and desires. This sermon speaks to that power and that need in our lives.

I was wasting my life gratifying the cravings of my sinful nature as I turned down the voice of morality in my head ...read more
