    Restoring My Awe Of God

    Why would you want to settle for just “doing church” when you could be filled with the awe of God?

    Mary and I are truly grateful to the church for providing us with some extended time off to celebrate our 40th anniversary. As usual, it was great to have some down time just to relax and be refreshed on our vacation and, other than the cold that I think I picked up on the way home when there were ...read more

    If we strive for nothing, we will get it every time! Receiving and achieving what we are believing God for starts with making S.M.A.R.T.T. goals.

    Nothing just happens! In order to receive what you desire when you pray, there must be a desire and there must be prayer. What do you desire? What are you praying for in your life? What are you goals? Make sure goals are SMARTT goals! SMARTT is an acronym that stands for: SPECIFIC: A ...read more

    INTRO.- ILL.- A 77-year-old granny made a citizen’s arrest in Germany when she rugby-tackled a 25-year-old jay walker.

    based on 1 rating
     | 7,995 views

    The hope of the believer is settled in Christ our Lord. He is the theme of the Bible, and the Gospel is the central message of the ages.

    Series: Saved, Settled, and Sanctified The Hope of the Gospel 1 Peter 1:9-12 As we continue our study in regard to the benefits of salvation, the passage before us is actually a continuation of the previous verses. In fact, verses 3-12 deal with a central theme: the lively hope we have through ...read more

    Open Your Eyes And Your Ears

     | 14,090 views

    Normally when we think of spiritual blindness in the Word of God we equate it with the lost or the hypocritical Pharisees. In our text God charges His peole with unparalleled spiritual blindness. It is time for God’s people to open their eyes and see.

    OPEN YOUR EYES AND YOUR EARS ISAIAH 42:14-20 INTRODUCTION: An elderly woman stood on a busy street corner, hesitant to cross because there was no traffic signal. As she waited, a gentleman came up beside her and asked, "May I cross over with you?" Relieved, she thanked him and took his arm. The ...read more

    Based on the classic Christmas Eve Luke 2 text, I tried to speak to a largely seeking congregation regarding Christ's unconditional love.

    Barbara Bush tells a Christmas Story about a little boy who really, really wanted a Red Sled for Christmas. He sat down and wrote a letter to Santa pleading his case. He wrote: “Dear Santa: I really, really want a red sled for Christmas. If you will bring me a red sled, I will be a perfect ...read more

     | 1,126 views

    There were 4 watches of the night according to the Roman law. People were required to warn others of oncoming dangers. Do we hold our self accountable to warn others of the dangers we are facing.

    Jesus commends the servants who risk trusting the master and produce good return but scolds the servant who is motivated in fear and fails to trust the master.

    26Pentecost A Matthew 25:14-30 17 November 2002 Rev. Roger Haugen This summer, while we attended the Synod Convention in Swift Current, a friend pointed out one particularly fine house. It belonged to a person who was somewhat of a hero in the area. In that ranching area, one gains a certain ...read more

    Living A Life Of Purpose By Pst. Joseph Ondu

    Contributed by Joseph Ondu on May 2, 2024
     | 695 views

    But in order to fulfill that purpose, we must first discover it. We must take the time to listen to the voice of God speaking to our hearts, guiding us along the path that he has laid out for us.

    Living a Life of Purpose Ladies and gentlemen, brothers and sisters, today I want to talk to you about the importance of living a life of purpose—a life that is guided by faith, driven by passion, and fueled by a sense of mission. In the book of Jeremiah, chapter 29, verse 11, we find these ...read more

    An eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth seemed rather fair but Jesus had a better, more difficult way to settle things.

    As some of you remembered back in May, four weeks before my very first cruise, I fell at the local Y injuring my shoulder. What followed was accident reports being filed, doctor visits, ex-rays, MRIs, and the diagnosis of shoulder surgery. Looking on the internet I was discovering the cost was to ...read more

    Divine Settlement

    Contributed by Dr. Abraham Obadare on Jun 30, 2022
     | 13,541 views

    As we all desire to settle down in life and enjoy God's goodness, I hereby affirm that settlement is indeed possible if we let God have His way, as it is His promise to settle and establish us - as stated in 1 Chronicles 17:14.

    Settlement means ? “an official agreement intended to resolve a dispute or conflict ...” (Google) ? As far as I am concerned, this is the best realm of settlement that anyone could wish for. I say this because, once upon a time, we were in conflict with God because of the fall of man in the garden ...read more

    Back To Bethel, Part 2

    Contributed by Jonathan Spurlock on Sep 5, 2020
     | 2,300 views

    Jacob had returned to Bethel before he settled Canaan with his family. Many years later, his descendants were carried away captive and foreigners were brought in to settle some of the cities. One of these was Bethel. What happened to this second group of people at Bethel?

    Introduction: This is the second message in a two-part series on the theme, “Back to Bethel”. The first message was based on Jacob’s return to Bethel, in Genesis 35, and how he led his family to get right with God. This message displays the other side of that concept, namely, a much different “back ...read more

    The Cross And Sacrifice

     | 5,123 views

    Taking up our crosses means no less a sacrifice than it did for Jesus.

    Advertisements often make all sorts of big offers, but we find out afterwards that there are hidden catches. These sorts of things are always hidden in the ’fine print.’ Companies that sell computer software do this a lot. When you buy computer software, you have to agree to all sorts of ...read more

    People want a Saviour, but not a Lord; God will only be Saviour and Lord, nothing less.

    PEOPLE ARE WANTING A SAVIOUR – NOT A LORD… BUT GOD WILL ONLY BE SAVIOUR AND LORD – NOTHING LESS LET’S EXPLORE THIS STORY FROM A DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVE This seems to have been a rather unfair encounter with the rich young man – don’t you think?
