    This life is nothing like a fairy tale where we live happily ever after. Life is a constant challenge, and we fare better at it if we embrace some realistic realizations, some of which seem slightly cynical and ironic.

The dictionary defines a cynic as, “a person who believes that people are motivated purely by self-interest rather than acting for honorable or unselfish reasons.” 2. One definition of the word “irony” is “a state of affairs or an ...read more

    We all give excuses. but when we give one to God, He knows the truth. An excuse is a reason not to do something. If you do that with God then any excuse will do!

    Any Excuse will do! Luke 14:16-14:24 This morning we are going to talk about excuses. We all have made them. Some excuses are better than others. Some are more valid than others and some are just plain lame. I have heard that some girls when asked out on a date, and they did not want to ...read more

    A preacher friend of mine once told me, that he had a hard time finding something to preach about. We take a look at the theme of effective preaching.

Yet, sad but true, many are boring. One guy described some preachers as being, "drier than cracker ...read more
