     | 11,058 views

    Jesus, the one who taught us love and forgiveness, tells us that we need to hate our parents! ...

    Now large crowds were traveling with Jesus, and turning to them he said, "If anyone comes to me and does not hate his father and mother, his wife and children, his brothers and sisters—yes, even his own life—he cannot be my disciple. And anyone who does not carry his cross and follow me cannot be ...read more

    Rather than struggling against His parental protection, quiet faith snuggles in, and takes refuge in the LORD.

    SHELTERED BY THE MOST HIGH. Psalm 91:1-2; Psalm 91:9-16. Psalm 91:1-2. The opening verse of this Psalm seems to state the obvious: “those who take their shelter under the Most High are sheltered by the shadow of the Almighty” (Psalm 91:1). Yet there is a reason for this turn of speech: even ...read more

  • Banned From Facebook Series

     | 27,083 views

    Did you know you can get banned from Facebook? And according to this text, you can get "banned" from church too. But why would God ask a church to do that to someone in church? That doesn't seem very loving or kind. What is God trying to accomlish in this

    (We opened with an approximately 2 ½ minute video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t-CeW-5Do9o&feature=related). They ban people from Facebook? Did you know that? Well, I knew it… I just didn’t know how common it was. And – as we heard on that video - it’s shocking ...read more

  • Heaven Help My Home!

    Contributed by Scott Maze on Nov 29, 2021
     | 2,196 views

    The word “honor” means to esteem your parents or to value them. The Bible calls on you to respect them. You don’t have to think your parents are marvelous. You don’t have to do everything they say once you are an adult. But you must honor them.

    If your home is anything like mine, see if this sounds familiar. You have more expenses than money. Your house isn’t anywhere near as clean as you would like it. You’re embarrassed by the messiness of your garage. You have not won “yard of the month” in a long, long time. There is more arguing than ...read more

     | 7,572 views

    We love because God first loved us, especially when we were completely unlovable. We must remember it is God who made our relationship with Him possible, and Christians should approach Him with confidence knowing His love for us is without end.

    No Fear in Love 1 John Bible Study, Part 11 1 John 4:14-21 Introduction - A person saved by love (Christ’s love for us) must be able to show love -- We may have trouble loving perfectly, but there is a difference between: • Loving perfectly, and, • Not loving at all - ...read more

  • Raising Boys To Be Men

    Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 22, 2021
     | 3,097 views

    Gender-role confusion is an increasingly serious issue in American churches. Many men and women have lost the concept of what it means to be masculine or feminine.

    Measured against the biblical teaching on marriage and family, there is no other conclusion to draw than our culture is decaying. In place of biblical roles where men, women, and children find their identity, we have elevated freedom to be whatever you want as the supreme good. In place of the ...read more

    Today we dedicate a child to God. What does that mean for his parents and the community of faith in which he will grow?

    This morning, for the second time in three weeks, we welcome into the community of faith a new child, Lars Hickey. Two weeks ago it was through infant baptism, today through dedication. It’s not my intent this morning to debate the issues of infant baptism vs believer baptism. Rather, let me ...read more

    based on 66 ratings
     | 16,729 views

    Jesus’ parable helps parents distinguish between the needs and the wants of their children, and teaches us how to invest attention in them.

    Several years ago a mother wrote to “Dear Abby”: “Dear Abby, My son is in jail for running his mouth at a cop. They’ve given him one phone call a day, and he’s calling home to ask us to bring him things. His dad has gone over there with whatever he has wanted: two Big Macs on Monday, a pizza on ...read more

    1) God’s Discipline is Parental 2) God’s Discipline is Perfect 3) God’s Discipline is Profitable

    Learn how to get along as parents and children - and how to deal with a difficult boss at work in this practical guide to everyday living.

    At church everyone is at their best behavior (most of the time) - hair combed, attitudes straight (after the argument in the car on the way). We come in and look and act so pious and pure. But when does our real character reveal itself? At home - and sometimes on the job. Overbearing parents, ...read more
