    Scripture Two weeks ago I began a sermon series About the Collection. My intention is to preach four messages on the biblical principles of financial stewardship with respect to giving to the Lord. I would like to reiterate that these messages are intended to help you who are Christians grow in ...read more

    Scripture Two weeks ago I started a short series of sermons called “Forgiveness and Reconciliation” from Paul’s letter to Philemon. Part of the reason I am preaching this series is because I want to learn how, when I sin (and I do sin all the time), to repent well, and to seek ...read more

    Bone Weary

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Oct 29, 2010
    based on 4 ratings
     | 10,544 views

    Like Jeremiah, we get bone weary when we feel abandoned, when we are living out of tune with the times, and when we suppress the desire to live in integrity. But In Christ we see one who experienced all this but lives to give us new life.

     | 1,746 views

    Moses stretched forth his rod. In the last set of three plagues, the earthly agent was Moses (Exodus 9:10; Exodus 10:13, 22), whose timidity seems to have worn off as time went on, and he became accustomed to putting himself forward.

    The Plague of Hail Exodus 9:22-26 (NIV) INTRODUCTION Then, the LORD said to Moses, "Stretch out your hand toward the sky so that hail will fall all over Egypt—on people and animals and on everything growing in the fields of Egypt." 23When Moses stretched out his staff toward the sky, ...read more

    In today's study, Peter exhorts Pastors to carry out their God-given responsibilities faithfully and sincerely. He goes on to encourage submission and humility in the church, and to be aware of the wiles of the enemy, and finally reminding us that God will see us through any suffering we face.

    There are many parallels between our relationship with our children and God’s relationship with His. We may gain much profit and insight by comparing these two relationships.

    And you fathers, do not provoke your children to anger: rather, bring them up in the training and exhortation of the Lord.(Ephesians 6:4) For this is the love of God -- that we keep His commandments, and His commandments are not burdensome.(1 John 5:3) There are many parallels between ...read more
