    Crises have their advantages. They focus our attention on things we tend to take for granted. Like oil. Now we realize there is no illimitable supply. And how much of it we waste. It’s the same with time.

    Look at the choices of three men with authority, who have the privilege of meeting Jesus face-to-face in His last week on earth. Learn from their mistakes, and take responsibility for our choices in life.

    Mark 14:55-65, 15:1-15 Take Responsibility for Your Life God bless us with the freedom of choice. • We have in our hands the power of choosing what we want in life. Every choice has a consequence. By not choosing, that itself is a choice. • By not choosing, we are allowing life to go on ...read more

    Exhaustion: Finding Rest In Taking The Sabbath Seriously Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 7,512 views

    Running ourselves to death is nothing new to God, who created everything with a precaution in mind-or perhaps an antidote-to exhaustion: Sabbath Rest. Wouldn’t you like to emerge from a Sabbath day refreshed and ready to tackle the most important things o

    It is obviously a scheme of Satan to keep us running in circles until we’re exhausted and totally uninterested in discipleship. This scheme is nothing new to God, who created everything with a precaution in mind--or perhaps an antidote--to exhaustion: Sabbath Rest. God has never stopped desiring ...read more

    When Jesus talks about us denying ourselves, taking up a cross & following Him – what does He mean? What does the Bible teach about "cross-bearing?"

    MELVIN M. NEWLAND, MINISTER RIDGE CHAPEL, KANSAS, OK (Revised: 2011) This morning I want us to look at a passage of Scripture found in Mark 8:34-35. "Then Jesus called the crowd to Him along with His disciples & said: ‘If anyone would come after ...read more

    Committed Disciple Series

     | 4,916 views

    To say you’re a “Christian” carries the idea that you’re a disciple but does it? Many in the Christian world today the understandings of what it means to be a Christian for many is to include a lot of don’t such as movies you can’t see, places you can’t go, things you can’t read.

    For the last several weeks we have spent time considering that we as followers of Jesus we are to be His disciples. This term “disciple” carries the meaning of being a student or pupil of Jesus. Today we identify with Jesus using the term “Christian” which implies an association or follower of ...read more

    Written in 2020, this message applies to all fear; but especially addresses fear of the Corona Virus. Fear is part of the human condition; but our fears would cease if we would place our hope in Jesus Christ, instead of our false securities.

    I’ve entitled our sermon for this morning, “Take Off Your Mask and Be Unafraid.” All of us want to feel as though we have a good handle on life and that nothing ever shakes us; but in reality, we are fearful creatures. So, what are some common fears we might see? Well, some people fear growing ...read more

    Jesus has just said, "No one can serve two masters; you cannot serve God and money" (Luke 16:13). Then Jesus goes on to share his parable of the Rich Man and Lazarus (Luke 16:19-31). Paul's words to Timothy (I Timothy 6:6-19) support Jesus' claim.

    “Take Hold of Eternal Life” Amos 6:1-7; I Timothy 6:6-19; Luke 16:19-31 Proper 21-C, September 25, 2016 All three of the Scripture lessons read in our worship service this morning could easily remind us of that old adage: “You can’t have your cake and eat it too!” ...read more
