Palm Sunday, often overshadowed by Resurrection Sunday, holds four key significances. It also poses a question - how do we react when Jesus enters our lives?
Palm Sunday is often overlooked because it is overshadowed by Resurrection Sunday. However, it holds significant importance for four reasons. Additionally, it is important to consider how we respond when Jesus approaches our lives. Palm Sunday is mentioned in all four gospels: Matthew 21:1-11, Mark ...read more

Exploring the invaluable contributions of mothers and their impact on our lives.
Today, we gather to worship the Lord and show our appreciation for our mothers. It is not only a commandment to honor our mothers, but it is also a loving and sensible thing to do. Many of us here today wish we still had our mothers with us so we could honor, remember, and love them. Mothers are ...read more

Many in Paul's day feared those believers who died prior to Christ's return for the church would be forsaken and left within the grave. The apostle offered words of comfort and assurance regarding all the saved and their hope for the future.
The Reality of the Rapture 1 Thessalonians 4: 13-18 Today, we have come to the most recognized passage in 1st Thessalonians, and one of the most familiar passages in all of Scripture. It is a passage that is often read at funerals because of the comfort it affords to the families who have lost ...read more
Scripture: 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18
Denomination: Baptist
All of us are interested in things that concern us. On the other hand, when a conversation is about things that do not interest us we become bored.
For example, many who have too much time on their hands are interested in watching- - THE “SOAPS.” - The people who are interested in the “soap” operas can sit around in a circle and talk about those programs as if what was going on had something to do with real personal friends of theirs. They ...read more
Scripture: 1 Samuel 20:1-3
The very group of men Jesus hand picked to be the foundation on which He would build His church were the first body of skeptics in the Christian church.
Ministers frequently call at a home when the man alone is there, and he will respond in some such manner as this: "I'm sorry my wife isn't home. She takes care of the religious matters in our home." I have not just read about this, but have experienced it, and have wondered how ...read more
Scripture: Mark 16:1-14
Christians have different views of accidents. Some feel there are no accidents, but that all is God's will. In this message I make it clear that accidents are real and seldom ever God's will.
No doubt everyone of us has had our share of accidents. If not in a car, or with a knife, or some other sharp object whereby we cut ourselves, then all of us have at some point in our life fallen down. It is a part of growing up to fall down, and so it is hard to conceive that even baby Jesus did ...read more

When you think of a treasure, what crosses your mind? Perhaps something buried by a pirate? When I was a boy, when I thought about treasure, I thought about Jim Hawkins and Long John Silver from Robert Louis Stevenson’s novel “Treasure Island”. By the way, Long John Silver was the ship’s cook, not ...read more

The Bible speaks about a real place called hell, and it’s a place where many people will unfortunately go when they die. But some individuals reason that hell is contradictory to God’s love and mercy and should not be preached.
I have entitled our message this morning “The Reality of Hell.” Hell is a topic that tends to be avoided in a lot of churches and by a lot of pastors today. One person has accurately identified the perception of hell today when he said, “Since the days of fiery sermons from Puritan preachers like ...read more
Scripture: Mark 9:43-48, Matthew 22:11-13
G. Campbell Morgan said, "The resurrection is a fact that cannot be proved except to the faith of the heart." The evidence must be approached with faith, or it will not convince the skeptic.
The redeemed have been reconciled to God through Christ the Lord. The miraculous reconciliation is too wondrous to comprehend. Along with the blessings associated with reconciliation come responsibilities.
The Realities of Reconciliation 2 Corinthians 5: 17-21 The passage we have read today is rich in doctrine and blessing for the believer. Through the atoning death of Christ on the cross, providing our redemption, God has reconciled believers to Himself. We have been freed from the bondage of our ...read more
Scripture: 2 Corinthians 5:17-21
What is Biblical Joy? Throughout the New Testament, we are encouraged to be joyful and to rejoice. But does that mean that we always have to be happy?
The question that Paul seems to be trying to answer for most of this passage of scripture is, how Jewish do you have to be to be a Christian? It was the question of whether or not Christians had to follow all of the Jewish regulations and guidelines was an ongoing debate throughout the New ...read more
Scripture: Philippians 3:1-11
Spiritual warfare is real.
INTRODUCTION • In life, it is easy to stick our heads in the sand and act as if we do not see something, or if we do not acknowledge something, it is not happening. • Since I graduated High School, I have struggled with my weight. • I was not struggling because I thought I looked ok until I ...read more

People often question what it takes to get to heaven. People question and wonder what heaven is really like. But you never really hear anyone ask about what hell is like. It makes me wonder if people even realize how real hell is.
For the last couple of weeks you may have noticed that we have talked about Jesus being the only way to heaven and we considered the question “won't all people ultimately go to heaven?” People often question what it takes to get to heaven. People question and wonder what heaven is really like. ...read more
Scripture: 2 Thessalonians 1:3-12, Revelation 14:9-12
Just as the heart pumps life-giving blood to every part of the body, so the truth of the resurrection gives life to every other area of gospel truth. The resurrection of Jesus Christ is the pivot on which all of Christianity turns & without which none of the other truths would much matter.
1 CORINTHIANS 15:1-7 [RESURRECTION REALITIES SERIES] THE REALITY OF THE RESURRECTION [Psalm 16:8–11; Psalm 22; Luke 24:25-27] 1st Corinthians, chapter 15 is devoted entirely to doctrine, to a single doctrine, the Resurrection. In these 58 verses Paul gives the most extensive treatment of the ...read more
Scripture: 1 Corinthians 15:1-7

How many of you happened to be here a few weeks ago when I showed the State Farm commercial as the opening illustration? The point was to show how easily it is to misunderstand a conversation, especially if you are only hearing one side of it. This week, when I was working on my sermon, I was ...read more
