Are we seeking first the Kingdom of God, or are we focused on getting all we can in this life? We find all we need in Christ. Let's freely give, expecting nothing in return.
Are we selfish or selfless? The next pair of vice and virtue deal with our attitude towards possessions and people. Greed $ In the Movie Wall Street, Gordon Gecko, a ruthless broker, bluntly proposes in a stockholders meeting, “Greed is good.” His code leads him to conclude that ...read more

Scripture: Luke 17:28-32
Lot's life demonstrates where we go when we look at what we like instead of looking up for the Lord's guidance. Loving God is learned through life's challenges more than life's pleasures.
Lot’s name is mentioned only 4 times in the New Testament. Three times in Luke 17 and once in 2 Peter 2:7. In both places the scriptures are talking about God’s judgment. Here are the places and contexts: Luke 17: 26 And just as it happened in the days of Noah, so it will be also in ...read more

Lot moved his family into Sodom. Was he better off?
Better Off Or Better? Gen. 13: 10-13, 19:1-11 Missionary Dan Crawford, who served in Africa during the early 1900's, had complete a mission trip and was preparing to go back to England. He loved his mission work but he was always excited to go home. He was describing London to an elder tribesman ...read more
Scripture: Genesis 19:1-11
Wilfulness is sin on a mission and Lot edged closer and closer. The world holds attractions for people, like the fishing spider that dangles a blob on the end of strands of web to allure its victims and pounces. Sodom was alluring Lot and about to pounce.
LOT – PART 2 – A LOT OF TROUBLE FOR GOD – FOR ABRAHAM – AND FOR HIMSELF – GENESIS 13 – 14 - LOT IN SODOM INTRODUCTION We take up this account from where we left off last time. Because of the strife between the herdsmen of Lot and Abram they had to separate. Abram and Lot had separated with Lot ...read more

We embark on a 6 part series on Lot. The Genesis record of Lot is one failure after another and deep involvement with sin. We will look at how all this happened and the sorrowful end of a broken and failed man. Lot walked the road to ruin always.

: "Remember Lot’s Wife!" Why would Jesus warn His disciples (and us today) to remember Lot’s wife? After all, we don’t even know her name. There must be a powerful lesson for us hidden somewhere in Genesis 19. Let’s take a look!
Luke 9: 62 Jesus replied, "No one who puts his hand to the plow and looks back is fit for service in the kingdom of God."Gen 19: 1 The two angels arrived at Sodom in the evening, and Lot was sitting in the gateway of the city. When he saw them, he got up to meet them and bowed down with his face ...read more

Lot’s choices in life turned him into a spiritual loser. His losses wound up being far greater than he could have ever imagined.
LOT, THE LOSER Text: II Pet.2: 7, 8 Intro: As I gave the title of this message, you may have thought it a little unkind. However, the point of that title was not unkindness, but to simply encapsulate the overall outcome of Lot’s life. In a very real sense, Lot lost everything of any ...read more

The ship master awakened Jonan and said cry out to your God, and then they cast lots to see who had caused God to be angry.
They Cast Lots Jonah 1:7 Intro. The shipmaster awoke Jonah and said, “Call upon your God.” The Bible doesn’t mention what Jonah replied, if anything.
