    A church that’s on fire for God is not only endued w/ power, but equal in position, and evangelistic in priority!

    Church on Fire Acts 4:31-33 http://gbcdecatur.org/sermons/ChurchOnFire.html Don’t worry—if the church were truly on fire we wouldn’t announce it in the bulletin or by way of a sermon. But I’m proud to announce that this church is officially ‘on fire for God!’ Village atheist was not a bad man, ...read more

    Church Laziness While Waiting For God

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Dec 1, 2022
     | 1,215 views

    What is Laziness? It is being unwilling to work or being idle. Here is where Paul admonishes the church against laziness.

    There were a few people falsely teaching the Thessalonian church that being as Christ was returning soon, people should stop working, lay aside any responsibilities, quit planning for the future, and just sit back and wait. Be that as it may, their absence of action just drove them into ...read more

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Jun 30, 2024
     | 268 views

    What does the word “laziness” mean? Laziness is being unwilling to work or being idle.

    Certain individuals in the Thessalonian church were dishonestly instructing that since Christ would return quickly, individuals ought to save their obligations, quit work, do no future preparation, and simply just stand by and wait. Be that as it may, their absence of action just drove them into ...read more

    Not only commutative, but distributive and social justice must be part of development for the Christian

    December 21, 2009 Caritas in Veritate There’s a great deal of jumping around in this week’s Scriptures, excitement not unlike that of children who are out of school for the week before Christmas. In fact, there are two different OT readings we can use today, and they both are full of ADHD action. ...read more

    Introduction: A. I want to begin with a story I used several years ago from Max Lucado’s book, In The Eye Of The Storm (published in 1991). It is a story about a parakeet named Chippie. 1. Chippie the parakeet never saw it coming. One second he was peacefully perched in his cage, and the next he ...read more

    There is a famine of the Word of God in our country and the people are hungry for the truth. Amos 8:11 “Look! The days are coming” declares the Lord God, “when I will send a famine throughout the land— not a famine of food or a thirst for water— but rather a famine of hearing the words of the Lord.

    2 Kings 4:38-41 (NKJV) Serve It Again October 03, 2010 We begin today with Elisha returning to Gilgal. Returning to his holy place where he was taught by his father in ministry Elijah.

    ​are We Truly The Salt Of The Earth Or Have We Become Bland?

    Contributed by Chris Swanson on Apr 28, 2023
     | 1,185 views

    What does it mean to be good for nothing? Does it mean that a person is of little worth? How does the concept of salt compare with the Christian?

    What is salt used for and for what is it good for? In Matthew 5:13, assuming a seasoning has no flavor, it has no worth. On the off chance that Christians put forth no attempt to influence their general surroundings, they are of little worth to God. If we are like the world in an excessive amount, ...read more

    When Jesus washed the feet of the disciples, he broke cultural conventions but also provided an example for his followers to emulate.

    Surprised by Underwhelming Expectations I rarely introduce myself as Pastor. It’s not that I don’t want people to know the role I play, but I don’t want my title to become a barrier. Sure, it may open some conversations, but it may also hinder others as people might think I’m some holy man - ...read more

    No doubt there were many acts of helping and kindness, neighbors checking in on neighbors that we will never hear about. We call the people who do these kinds of things “Good Samaritans.” One writer said the parable of the Good Samaritan “is one of the most gripping that Jesus ever told...
