    Doing Church Together

    At its best, the church is communal, creedal, charismatic, and caring.

    Doing Church Together Ephesians 4:1-16 August 6, 2006 One of the things that I have learned through the years as I have taken scores of psychological tests for ordination and continuing education is that I am terribly introverted. I am so introverted that I am almost off the scale. Extraverted ...read more

    Be Quiet, Be Still And Behave

     | 27,443 views

    Being quiet and still drives us nuts! But we are told in Scripture to seek God in the stillness -- not in the noise and busy-ness of life.

    If there is one thing that drives us almost insane, If there is one thing that we cannot stand, If there is one thing that makes us uncomfortable it’s...

    Why and how do we rejoice and give thanks?

    In All Things Rejoice, Pray and Give Thanks 1 Thessalonians 5:16-5:18 Why and how do we rejoice and give thanks?

    Many times we as Christians live our lives in the dark. We think we are reasonably good people trying our best. But our past, our associations, the flesh, and the culture around us, conspire to blind us to many things that are not like the Lord going on i

    The church today is in trouble. Two recent surveys show that church attendance, even among professing Christians, is way down. Many people today also feel that while they acknowledge faith in Jesus, also want a Burger King style religion—the “have it your way” mentality of ...read more

    A Warning Against Laziness & Procrastination Series

    based on 14 ratings
     | 28,090 views

    Ants are used as models of industrious workers whose diligence provides for the present & prepares for the future. Laziness keeps one from fulfilling their physical & spiritual responsibilities & realizing the potential of their earthy & eternal future

    PROVERBS 6: 6-11 A WARNING AGAINST LAZINESS AND PROCRASTINATION [John 4:31-38] God speaks to us most clearly and directly through His Word, but if one does not trust the wisdom of His Word, then he can extract wisdom from observing nature and fallen man. Nature teaches us to be prepared and ...read more

    Super Cool Or Super Real?

    based on 4 ratings
     | 3,976 views

    Are you real? That might seem like an obvious question but consider the lengths you go to in order to present yourself as "all together" to your friends and brothers and sisters. Being impressive by appearance can actually impede both your growth in the L

    We talk a lot about natural human behavior and how that often runs counter to the real life given to us in Jesus Christ. Today I want to talk about your image. In our natural state we try really hard to present a good image to the world. We try to clean up, dress well, and act civilly. Beyond that, ...read more

    Only 26% of the adult population believes that the Bible, the Word of God, is inspired, is infallible and is inerrant. These three aspects are vitally important in understanding the Bible.

    The Holy Bible was written over a fifteen-hundred year span, by forty different authors from every walk of life. It was written by kings, servants, fishermen, poets, doctors, herdsmen and even a tax collector. It was written on three different continents, Europe, Asia and Africa in sixteen ...read more

    There is a call to every life that seeks to break us out of our isolation and independence. Apart from God we are like actors without a story…and this series is about rediscovering the story that defines our lives.

    At the heart of Christianity is the invitation to discover something new. God is an inviting God and wants each of us not only to know him but to discover life in Him and the body of Christ at its fullest. To discover means to uncover or to explore a new

    Cantate Sunday, 1986: Music has power to involve every facet of our beings in worship, it helps build the body of Christ, and it can offer a credible witness to the world.

    It was offertory time in the morning worship, and everyone had settled down quietly – settling down, I suspect, for a little nap to get themselves ready for the big nap they would take during the sermon! And, as was customary, the organist began the slow and solemn strains of an offertory: music to ...read more

    What About What The Bible Doesn't Say

    Contributed by Michael Bolin on Jun 7, 2009
    based on 5 ratings
     | 6,187 views

    what we eat is irrelevant-- but how our actions affect others in the body is not irrelevant.

    In our scriptures this morning, Paul moves now to a heated Corinthian dispute over an issue of doctrine. Should Christians eat meat from animals that have been offered first to pagan deities, and can they take part in a dinner party the host dedicates to a god or goddess? Doesn’t it seem peculiar, ...read more

    Noah was obedient to God and received his reward of salvation.

    Text: “This Noah did; according to all that God commanded him, so he did” (Genesis 6:22). The story of Noah is one of my favorite Bible stories.
