    A sermon about change. Churches must be willing to change or die.

    “Picking Up Our Mats” John 5:1-9a I don’t like change. It scares me. It’s like diving into the unknown. When I was a child, my family moved around a lot. By the time I entered the 6th Grade I had already lived in four different states. I remember when I moved from Dayton, Ohio to ...read more

    God had graciously spared Nineveh in Jonah's day. But their repentance did not last. Josiah started a reformation but it did not last either. Judgment awaits those who trample upon the grace of God.

    Don’t Trample on God’s Grace: An Overview of the Book of Nahum Introduction We continue our study in the Minor Prophets today by taking a look at the Book of Nahum. We don’t know all that much about the prophet. Nahum identifies himself as an Elkoshite, but scholars have difficulty identifying ...read more

    Paul had just finished mentioning the hardships and sufferings that he had faced in the service of God. It takes great faith to stay steady under such continual sufferings and still boldly preach the Christian gospel. He has such a steady faith.

    based on 45 ratings
     | 23,945 views

    Do the Dew (of Heaven!) (Note to pastors, here is a link for a "Dew" commercial where the thrust is that you can’t do life without your dew. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AlKVbt8K7kY) Ho 14:4 I will heal their backsliding, I will love them freely: for mine anger is turned away from him.

    If we are honest we can all admit to having moments like Peter when we want to turn back to the old life. Go back to fishing instead of living for Christ. But friend: that can never be for you or me.

Today we look at what is regarded as Jesus third appearance to the Disciples. It is a week later so it is another Sunday morning. ...read more

    Contributed by John Gaston on Jun 3, 2023
     | 2,519 views

    Cana was mysteriously chosen to be the site of Jesus' first two miracles in Galilee. Cana means "a rod for measuring." At Cana a desperate man met Jesus. His perspective was changed and his gold-like faith emerged.
