     | 5,793 views

    Paul was a model preacher, missionary, leader theologian. But he began as a baby Christian like all of us. He was also a model baby Christian. This sermon teaches us how we can grow in Christ and maximize our usefulness for the kingdom of God.

    9th Century Israel Or The End Of All Things? Series

     | 4,376 views

    Joel's prophecy causes some confusion for interpreters because it seems, and is, a description of two very different events. Very different, yes, but very related, also. See for yourself.

    2. History and Prophecy. The book of Joel There are two portions of Scripture that I believe need our further scrutiny on the subject of locusts. Actually the subject is Bible prophecy, a favorite of mine for sure. The first portion is the prophecy of Joel. I quote here from a former blog of ...read more

    God Of 2nd Chances

    Our sins can never be greater than the grace of God. Our failure can never be greater than the love of God. Our failure in the past does not determine what we will become in the future.

    God of 2nd Chances Intro: A little boy went out to the ball field by himself, wearing his baseball cap and carrying a bat and ball. In his eye was the look of steely determination. He was so full of confidence that he put his bat on his shoulder, tossed the ball into the air, and said, ...read more

    Competing According To The Rules Series

     | 6,623 views

    Divine rewards demand that we conduct our lives according to God's rules provided in His Word.

    I consider the initial verses of this chapter to be among the most significant verses of the book. They are, as well, perhaps the most neglected verses of the missive which Paul wrote. I confess that I am ploughing quite a narrow furrow in these expositions. Note that the Apostle appeals to ...read more

    Have you ever met someone or know someone and you heard about a position they have or was offered. And you wondered how in the world did they get that position? They don’t seem to have any qualifications for that position!

    1 Timothy 1-12-17- And I thank Christ Jesus our Lord who has enabled me, because He counted me faithful, putting me into the ministry, although I was formerly a blasphemer, a persecutor, and an insolent man; but I obtained mercy because I did it ignorantly in unbelief.

    God can get their attention, but what will you do with it?

    There are some things that only happen once in a lifetime. Occurrences that make you stop in your tracks and say to yourself, “I can’t believe that just happened.” Maybe you remember the fall of the Twin Towers or something joyous like the birth of your first child? At the ...read more

    Sooner or later the cock is going to crow, and if it's like the rooster across the way from my house, it could be...at any time! Like Peter, we are sinners in need of a Savior. But, like Peter, we have a hint that the rooster is going to crow, eventually, no matter what.

    Happy "Crowing" Saturday, Everyone! There is a rooster that lives across the road into the valley below on my neighbors farm. That crazy bird will cock-a-doodle-do anytime of the day. What a crazy bird! He reminds me of the lesson this week. This week's Sunday School lesson is from Mark 14. The ...read more
