    Habakkuk 1:5-10 KJV Behold ye among the heathen, and regard, and wonder marvellously: for I will work a work in your days, which ye will not believe, though it be told you.

    Put your trust and hope in God, not government.

    As a political libertarian I found myself somewhat irritated with the section of scripture we’re studying this morning. The Egyptians lost their money, their livestock, their land, and their freedom. The Egyptian government assumed control of their property and their persons. How did Pharaoh ...read more

     | 46,858 views

    This sermon stresses the benefits of thanksgiving in our day to day lives and unveils what the bible has to say about seeing our troubles from the proper perspective.

    I hope you all had a nice Thanksgiving… It has always been so strange to me how Thanksgiving has changed since its original conception—even from when I was a kid. For instance, how ironic is it that the very day after Thanksgiving just happens to be the biggest shopping day of the year! Think about ...read more

    In this sermon, we discover what kept the apostle Paul ticking even though he took a licking. Four "f"s kept him going - foundation, force, faith, and focus.

    Introduction: A. I like the story told of the boxer who went to his corner after getting knocked down in the first round. 1. His trainer patted him on the back and said, “Great round. Now go back out there and get him. He hasn’t laid a glove on you.” 2. The boxer was a little confused by that ...read more

    We all need spiritual renewal from time to time. Where does it come from?

    My text this morning comes from the book of Isaiah, chapter forty, verses 28 through 31: "Do you not know? Have you not heard? The Lord is the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He will not grow tired or weary, and his understanding no one can fathom. He gives strength to the ...read more

    44th in a series from Ephesians. How followers of Jesus differ from unbelievers in the way they respond to sin in their lives.

    In his book, Listening to the Voice of God, Pastor Roger Barrier shares the account of how he was led by God to preach a one sentence sermon one Sunday morning. The account in the book focuses more on how that was an act of faith on his part than it does on the message itself. But the message ...read more

    35th in a series from Ephesians. Our lives are to be consistent with what God has already done for us.

    We’ve probably all heard the phrase “Clothes make the man.” But I wonder if you’ve heard Mark Twain’s take on that familiar adage: Clothes make the man. Naked people have little or no influence on society. Clothes really are important. But it seems to me that our clothes don’t really make us as ...read more

    This sermon concludes part one of a series on who we are in Christ based on Ephesians 1-3. It focuses on the magnitude of God’s love for us and Paul’s prayer that we be filled to overflowing with the knowledge of this love.

    “FILLED” “Empty” or “Full”? Which would describe you this morning? Perhaps that’s not fair. You may feel half-full and are quite fine with that. I thought my tank was better than half full this week until I realized it was nearly empty. My Dad instilled in me a quirky ...read more

    INTRO.- ILL.- An elderly man visited a doctor for a thorough exam. After the exam, the doctor said, “You’re as fit as a fiddle. You’ll live to be eighty.” The man said, “But I am eighty!” The doctor replied, “See, what did I tell you?” Most of us don’t mind growing older as long as we can stay ...read more

    The Bible is clear that righteousness can only be found in God.

    PUT OFF, PUT ON Col. 3:9-10(KJV), "Lie not one to another, seeing that ye have put off the old man with his deeds; And have put on the new [man], which is renewed in knowledge after the image of him that created him:" "Put off...put on."
