    An uplifting sermon offering hope and encouragement when seeking God's help during challenging periods.

    One day, a man took his young son to the top of a high hill. He pointed in every direction - north, south, east, and west - and said, "Son, God's love is as big as all of this."

    Dealing With Doubt

    Contributed by Dan Erickson on Nov 21, 2000
    based on 145 ratings
     | 10,139 views

    When it comes to Chris-tian truth, God doesn't want us to be skeptics, but I don't think He wants us to be gullible either. In fact, our faith can be strengthened when we ask tough questions and even when we struggle with doubts.

    Some people are natural skeptics. My Grandfather was one. When man first landed on the moon in July of 1969 and the TV pictures came back from the lunar surface, my Grandpa thought it was all being faked. He figured those pictures were coming from a desert somewhere in Arizona. Sometimes he was a ...read more

    How Was I To Know?

    This sermon is a first-person narrative from the perspective of the innkeeper. We have all too often made the innkeeper into a bad guy. What if he did everything for the family that he could do?

    Well, it would seem I was between a rock and a hard place. I was in a situation, where there were no easy answers. I looked hard for the simple answers because, you know, they say the simplest is always the best. But, it wasn’t a simple lesson I faced. Later in his life Jesus faced several of those ...read more

    This sermon's main point is to encourage believers to rely on God's strength in times of weariness and weakness, drawing hope and renewal from His divine power as expressed in Isaiah 40:29-31.

    Good morning, Church family! Have you ever felt so tired, so worn out, that you thought you couldn't possibly take another step? I know I sure have. And I'm guessing, if we're all being honest here, that you've felt the same way too. I'm reminded of what C.S. Lewis once wrote: "God, who foresaw ...read more
