    I. 1. And first, as to the sleepers here spoken to.

    Just as there twins in people, there are also twin truths in the Bible.

    INTRODUCTION This morning I’m beginning a new series from Paul’s first epistle to the Thessalonians. Some people think an epistle is the wife of an apostle, but it’s just a letter. When I finish 1 Thessalonians we’re going to go right into 2 Thessalonians, and then 1 and 2 ...read more

    In a series on the Seven Marks of Discipleship that have been identified by the elders of Good Shepherd Church, this sermon prepares for that series as the congregation participates in a Renewal of Baptism service

    The writer of Ephesians says, “There is one baptism.” Presbyterians believe that very literally. Other churches may baptize their members many times. I know if I were to suddenly become a Southern Baptist, my baptism wouldn’t count. I’d have to be rebaptized. I know some people who every few ...read more

As the shuttle was entering the atmosphere something went terribly wrong. Later studies indicate that some of ...read more

    Funeral service for Elizabeth Wilkey Abernethy, a quiet yet committed long-term church member who struggled with cancer for nine years. We can wait if, like Liz, we are self-controlled, upright, and godly, for the glory of the risen Christ is coming.

    I am not very good at waiting. Are you? I do not like to sit and twiddle my thumbs waiting for something to happen. Do you remember that in days past shoe repair shops would advertize, “Shoes repaired while you wait”? You would go in, sit down, take off your old clodhoppers, and turn them in, ...read more

    To be effective in ministry, let us not focus too much on self but rather be concern for the welfare of others.

    To be effective in ministry, we need to learn one thing – don’t take yourself too seriously. Don’t be too bothered about how people see you or treat you. Get over yourself. Don’t get stuck inside your own ego, because over time it will become your prison. It is amazing that while Jesus was ...read more

    Those who derive their reality from the world they see and hear about them are not living in the true reality that God wants for them.

They had this confidence for two major reasons; they could trace their lineage back to Abraham, and they bore the sign of the covenant which was circumcision. Jesus acknowledged their physical lineage in the previous section ...read more

    Laban confronts Jacob after God tells him to leave and go to Canaan. We learn how God peels away the flesh and transforms us with His character through the confrontation between Laban and Jacob.

    I don’t like confrontation - especially with people who I know have ulterior motives and are trying to trip me up and get the best of me. I get obsessed about it - and it makes my stomach churn. I’m sure Jacob was feeling some of those feelings as he thought about Laban - who at every turn cheated ...read more
