    Hope In The Lord Series

     | 3,085 views

    When we find ourselves in the depths of despair, we have the gift of Jesus … the very embodiment of God’s “hesed” … God’s steadfast love … and we have the cross to remind us of the greatest Christmas gift of all, amen?

    Advent is a time of tension. There is the joy and anticipation of the season and the stress and strain of trying to prepare for it, amen? But the season itself represents an historical and theological tension as well and I am going to use songs from the Jewish song book and songs from our own ...read more

    Singing To The Lord

    God, the Master Musician, has ordained that we praise Him in song, and music is where Heaven touches the Earth.

    I’m conducting a funeral and looking out over the congregation while we’re singing a familiar hymn…and noting how many of the people gathered are not singing. I’ll even say, “Let’s honor this person’s memory by singing one of his favorite hymns.” And all I get are mostly blank stares. I realize ...read more

    Baptism Of The Lord

    I once heard a preacher who said something like, “My old man has died with Christ in baptism but sometimes the devil does CPR and manages to resuscitate him.”

    Romans 6:3 Do you not know that all of us who have been baptized into Christ Jesus were baptized into his death? We were buried therefore with him by baptism into death, in order that, just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, we too might walk in newness of life. The ...read more

     | 8,008 views

    We see the spiritual lives of Christians today in a state of confusion and disarray. Reason? Lack of Biblical teachings and knowledge.

    ABOMINATION TO THE LORD! Not every sermon I’ve preached or written were a home run and a blockbuster hit; many have boomerang and hit me back instead – this one I write today may be one. Just a caution before I proceed! We have talked a lot of ‘joy of the Lord’, ...read more

    Understand and celebrate God's unchanging goodness and care for us, even in times of trouble, and to find our joy and happiness in Him rather than our circumstances.

    Good morning, church family! Isn't it wonderful to gather here today to bask in the goodness of our mighty God? Today, we're going to delve deep into the book of Nahum, specifically Nahum 1:7, which states, "The Lord is good, a refuge in times of trouble. He cares for those who trust in him."

    Has there ever been a time in your life that everywhere you turned there was a wall of trouble? That's just what Moses is facing in this passage.

    Ex 14:10-14 10 And when Pharaoh drew nigh, the children of Israel lifted up their eyes, and, behold, the Egyptians marched after them; and they were sore afraid: and the children of Israel cried out unto the Lord. 11 And they said unto Moses, Because there were no graves in Egypt, hast thou taken ...read more

    The Way Of The Lord Series

    Contributed by Robert Butler on Apr 7, 2025
     | 186 views

    The Way of the LORD is a path that requires trust, obedience, and a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. Through the Scriptures, believers are encouraged to walk in this way, trusting in God's guidance and living in accordance with His will.

    God has an amazing life of adventure and purpose waiting for us all. But very few people find it. A lot of people think “I tried the God thing, but it didn't work.” The problem is that the promises of God don't happen without the practices of Jesus. AND Most people aren't taught what ...read more

    The Sabbath is to be Holy as unto the Lord. But what does that mean for the people of the New Covenant? Could doing the works of God be the best way to honor the Lord.

    The Lord’s Day Matthew 12:1-14 Do any of you remember the old ‘blue laws”? For those who are younger than 30, our state used to have rules about what could and could not be done on Sunday. Almost all stores and restaurants were closed on Sunday. The vast majority of people did not have to work ...read more

    Jesus Christ both unites and divides. Those who have trusted in Him as Savior are united in Christ. When Jesus returns in the air, we shall be caught up together, never to be separated again.
