    We live in a very wealthy land...God has blessed us but are we mis-using our wealth? Do we notice the poor, the child captured by child trafficing, homeless prenant teenager.... can we help? or do we not notice. Our culture has taught us to "want more"

    Finding Contentment In A World Built For Greed Series

    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,371 views

    It was Bob Dylan who said, everybody worships something and he was right. Many times, that has led to the drive for more. The more we have, the more we want, and when that doesn’t bring happiness we want all the more.

    Finding Contentment in a World Built for Greed Luke 12:13-15, 20-21 The goal of the Game of Life is to get married, have kids, and try to accumulate as much wealth as possible so that you can become a millionaire. It teaches the lesson that the one with the most toys wins. The Game of Life portrays ...read more

    The God Of The Box - "More Than Enough” God Series

    Contributed by Jeff Strite on Jan 2, 2005
    based on 67 ratings
     | 16,803 views

    Pagans doubt God because they try to put Him in a box. But Christians sometimes doubt because they forget that He was in the box to begin with.

    OPEN: (I had brought a large cardboard box on stage that my children had turned into a house) I suppose some of you have wondered what this is. Does anybody know what I have on stage with me? That’s right - it’s a box. But, it’s not just any box. This is a marvelous box. This is the creation of ...read more

    Spiritual Growth And Learning Is A Life-Long Adventure

    Contributed by Michael Koplitz on Jun 1, 2021
     | 4,196 views

    No matter what your age spiritual growth and learning is for a lifetime. The more you investigate the more you will want to learn more.

    Parables can take on many different interpretations. One way to examine this parable is that Yeshua was talking about spiritual growth. Yeshua met many people during His ministry, and they immediately followed Him. Why? They determined that Yeshua was the Messiah that the LORD had promised to His ...read more

    What Does The Lord Want From Me?

    Contributed by Daniel Habben on Mar 17, 2008
    based on 7 ratings
     | 5,832 views

    So, what does the Lord want from us? Nothing. He’s done everything and continues to do much for us. God isn’t like that impossible boss or teacher; he’s a loving Father who graciously provided salvation for us. That knowledge will lead us to stop mutterin

    Did you ever have a teacher or a boss for whom you just couldn’t seem to do anything right? I had an art teacher like that. Now I admit, art is not something that I especially excel at but I did always try my best. In spite of my efforts, this teacher never seemed to be satisfied with any of the ...read more

    “EVERYBODY Wants to Go to Heaven” 1 Thessalonians 4:13 Who wants to go to heaven someday? A recent Christian book is entitled, “EVERYBODY Wants to Go to Heaven, but Nobody Wants to Die”. There is a lot of truth in that title, but if we believe what was taught by Jesus ...read more

    How do you ask God for things?

    As you know, this Lord’s Prayer is all part of what we know as the Sermon on the Mount. Just a few verses from where we are here… Jesus says something else about prayer. In chapter 7:7-11, He says, “Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: ...read more

    Yes, I Love You, More Than You Can Imagine

    based on 3 ratings
     | 6,528 views

    Jesus asks Peter if he loves him and if he is truly ready to become a disciple. It is a question that Jesus asks of us today. If we know he loves us, how come we don't always do what he wants us to do which is to spread his message to others.

    Our reading this morning comes from the book of John Chapter 21: verses 1-19. It is a story that we might be familiar with, but if not it is an easy story to follow. It was written by the Apostle John, who by now if many of you don’t know is my favorite Gospel writer. John to me is the ...read more

    Why did Elisha insist (3 times) to go with Elijah to his fiery chariot ride... but all of the "sons of the Prophets" insisted on standing some distance away?

    (I opened the sermon by leading the congregation in an old hymn called "If Jesus Goes With Me I'll Go Anywhere". And then ended the sermon by singing the first verse and chorus with them again). In 1936, a 17 year old Bob Feller became a pitcher for the Cleveland Indians, and he ...read more
