Elijah And The Woman With Sticks (A Mothering Sunday Sermon) Series

Contributed by Dean Courtier on Apr 2, 2014

God will always find a way to speak to us. Sometimes it's a verse of scripture. Sometimes it’s a song. Sometimes it’s His voice we hear. Sometimes He will use a person. For this woman, God brings the prophet Elijah into her life.

Abraham Lincoln said: No one is poor who has a godly mother Napoleon said, “The future destiny of a child is the work of ...read more

The Pleasure Of Perfection Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Apr 5, 2021

Psalm 84 begins with an expression of pleasure in God's dwelling place. "How lovely is your dwelling place, O Lord Almighty." There is a deep longing in this song to experience again the pleasure of being in this lovely environment where the presence of God could be felt.

Christians have always had mixed feelings about pleasure. They know God made us to enjoy many pleasures of life, and yet there are also the forbidden pleasures. These are often just extremes of what is acceptable. Sex is good, but immorality is bad. Food is good, but gluttony is bad. Abundance is ...read more
