    Maslow claims that our physical needs for food, water etc. are the most basic and fundamental. But the Bible tells us that our spiritual needs are even more basic. And only Jesus, the Bread from heaven, can satisfy those needs.

    [Sermon preached on 11 March 2018, 4th Sunday in Lent / 3rd year, ELCF Lectionary] Recently, a survey was held in the US among people from all ethnic backgrounds, cultures, religions, social strata and walks of life. One of the questions they were asked was: How satisfying or fulfilling is your ...read more

    Our text tells us that “Isaac digged again the wells of water, which they had digged in the days of Abraham his father…” Can we learn some lessons from this Old Testament man’s service in “well digging”?

    WELL DIGGING Genesis 26:18-19 INTRODUCTION: Our text tells us that “Isaac digged again the wells of water, which they had digged in the days of Abraham his father…” Can we learn some lessons from this Old Testament man’s service in “well digging”?

    The Importance Of Baptism

    Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 30, 2021
     | 3,709 views

    The Bible is also very plain that you do not have to be baptized in order to be saved. Water doesn't save anyone regardless of whether it is a spoon full or a tank full. The only liquid in the Bible that saves is the Blood of Jesus Christ.

    Jesus had a ministry that lasted a little more than three years. Of all the things He could have started His ministry with and ended His ministry with, He started it by being baptized and concluded it by commanding the church to make disciples and baptize others. Now, since baptism was the bookends ...read more

    Survive Or Thrive

     | 1,607 views

    In light of all that is going on in this world and in our personal challenges, we have a choice, we can either just survive or thrive. You can try to handle life on your own or be like a tree planted by streams of living water.

    God had called Jeremiah to preach the truth and prophesy to Israel and Judah at a time when people were abandoning the Lord God, His Word & His precepts. God’s people had been engaged in pagan religions and practices, idol worship (which speaks of worshiping an image or fantasy) and this turned ...read more

    Living Waters Fellowship is inviting you to a special Mother’s Day celebration on Sunday, May 12th at 10 a.m. We’ll be looking at “A Mother’s Journey” from the life of Mary, the mother of Jesus.

    Mother’s Day Message: “A Mother’s Journey” As we begin our time together on this Mother’s Day, I remember years ago when I was preparing for a Mother’s Day message and Michaela said, “And what’s the problem, you already know what to say.” Now, it’s not so much what she said, but it was the tone ...read more

    Legitimate Use Of Rituals Series

    Contributed by Richard Tow on Apr 29, 2024
     | 718 views

    For a person to be declared righteous by God, rituals/sacraments are unnecessary. Justification is by faith alone. So, what is the value of rituals like water baptism and the Lord's Supper? Using Romans 4:11, this message seeks to answer that question.

    Intro Last week we expounded Romans 4:9-12. There Paul used Abraham’s experience to prove circumcision is not a prerequisite for justification. In that study, we did not have time to talk about why God gave Abraham the rite of circumcision. If it is of no value for justification, then what is its ...read more
