    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Jan 19, 2003
    based on 30 ratings
     | 3,913 views

    Money may actually distract us from Kingdom priorities. Some things money cannot buy are compassion for the needy, passion for the lost, and love for one another.

    I begin this morning with an invocation from my favorite poet, the bard of Baltimore, Ogden Nash, who addressed our favorite god in prayer: “Oh, money, money, money; some may think thee holy. But I cannot figure out how thou goest out so fast and how thou comest in so slowly.” Ogden Nash, ...read more

    One of the reasons we can win the spiritual battle and get through the storms of life, is the fact that we have a Savior in heaven who is praying for us.

    A. Over the years, I have enjoyed reading Readers’ Digest and especially the humor sections. 1. One of the humor sections is called “All in a Day’s Work” where people write in humorous things that happen at work. 2.

    Are we really listening and expecting God to speak with us or are we too busy being distracted by many things that we can’t hear Him call?

    April, 2007 “Finding Your Calling” I Samuel 3:1-10 INTRODUCTION: During three centuries of rule by the judges, the word of God was rare. By Eli’s time there were no prophets speaking God’s message. In fact there had only been two prophets--Deborah (Judges 4:4) and Othniel (Judges 6:8) during ...read more

    Construction Site Or Warzone?

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Aug 25, 2021
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,036 views

    God is calling the church to rebuild after the Corona Virus pandemic lock-downs. Any church that rebuilds becomes a construction site, which is a warzone for spiritual battle. This message can be re-worked for a building program.

    Last week I mentioned how I believe that God is calling us to rebuild our fellowship after a series of setbacks. This means that our church is currently sitting smack dab in the middle of a spiritual construction site. I remember how I once pastored a church where we built a multipurpose ...read more

     | 756 views

    Every Christian's spiritual effectiveness and impact for God are limited by their leadership ability, which acts as a ceiling. We must intentionally develop conviction, responsibility, and continuous growth through mentorship.
