    The world paints those who oppose immoral sex as being prudes and bigots. It's hard to withstand the humiliation and embarrassment that we can face when we speak up. So why should we? And how should we stand for morality in a faithless world?

    Years ago I heard a famous radio preacher tell of an experience he had while doing a seminar in a large city. After he had gotten done speaking he returned to his hotel, got on the elevator, and as he touched the button of his floor, a couple of very attractive women got on with him. "What ...read more

    "Love" should be more than just a buzzword for Christians. God showed his love for us when we were still sinners. Likewise, we should love our friends and our enemies alike and show it by treating them the way we want to be treated.

    [This sermon was preached on 8 July 2018, 7th Sunday after Pentecost / 3rd year, ELCF Lectionary] Years ago, a man came to me for help. His life was in a mess. When he looked to the past, he saw many relationships that had shipwrecked. Several of them were still haunting him almost daily. His ...read more

    Series: Wow! Whose Beautiful Young Daughter Is That? (Part 9) When Is A Child Better Than Seven Sons?

    Contributed by Jeremiah Menyongai on Mar 9, 2020
     | 1,927 views

    The focus of parents should not be just the quantity of children they should have but the quality of children. Parents must not just have children but be ready to sacrifice for them to become vital to society. One child brought up well is better than seven sons ill brought up.

    SERIES: “WOW! WHOSE BEAUTIFUL YOUNG DAUGHTER IS THAT? (PART 9) WHEN IS A CHILD BETTER THAN SEVEN SONS? 1. Ruth 4:13 So Boaz took Ruth and she became his wife. When he made love to her, the Lord enabled her to conceive, and she gave birth to a son. 14 The women said to Naomi: “Praise be to the ...read more

    Palm Sunday: This message on "The Triumphal Entry" teaches us some things about worship, concerning what we should be thankful for and what we should celebrate when we find ourselves in the presence of the one true King, Jesus Christ.

    One Palm Sunday, a little boy had a sore throat and had to stay home from church with a babysitter. When the rest of the family came home, they were carrying palm branches; and the little boy asked what they were for. His father told him that people waved them in celebration as Jesus passed by. ...read more

    This sermon delves into the profound reasons we should express our gratitude to God. Our decision to thank God should not be contingent on His recent actions for us, but rather on the everlasting love He has shown us through His Son and His continuous blessings.

    Today, I want to talk to you about the importance of gratitude. In a year filled with challenges and difficulties, it may be hard for some to find reasons to be thankful. The COVID-19 pandemic has affected everyone's lives in various ways, making it even more crucial to cultivate a spirit of ...read more

    In this message we examine what Jesus taught about the sixth commandment. While the commandment says we should not kill, Jesus explains the true intent of the commandment - unjust anger.

    The atonement is essential to the Christian message and should always be a priority. Although there are many teachings that are appropriate, we must not allow the peripheral to push out the essential.

    1 Cor. 2:2 2-1-15 I want to take as our subject this morning, The Cross as absolutely Essential to: (1) God’s plan of salvation, (2) The Church’s message, and (3) The Holy Spirit’s work in our lives.

    When a young person has something to give, we should accept it, bless it, and immediately begin to look for a significant role in the church for them.

    God says to make His house a house of prayer for all people but we pick and choose who is welcome in God’s house. That should not be!

    We’ve all entertained in our homes at one time or another. We’ve had somebody drop by or invited someone for lunch or dinner. Maybe we’ve had people over for a weekend or longer. How do we treat visitors to our homes? We treat them pretty well don’t we? We try our best to make them feel at ...read more
