    Contributed by Brad Beaman on Mar 19, 2024
     | 1,567 views

    Are you discouraged? Listen for the gentle whisper of the Lord. Elijah was transformed by the still small voice of God. You can be too.

    In 1 Kings we see the victorious bold Elijah and we see the opposite extreme when Elijah faced discouragement. The background comes from long years of drought in Israel. Elijah made a prophecy that there would be no dew or rain in Israel. This drought was extremely severe. Now Elijah the ...read more

    All Saints Day: God causes his saving grace to flow bringing the ’Water of Life’. God gathers his saints at the ’river’s shore’. We will be there one day too!

    Some of the most beautiful places and some of the best times I can remember have happened at or near rivers. I was born and raised some 250 miles south of here in place called the Rio Grande Valley. I can still remember my science teacher saying, “This really isn’t a valley. This is a delta.

    The more seed that is cast in the park, the greater the number of pigeons that will come. The same holds true if we want to see a harvest in the souls of men. There has to be a lot of bread cast upon the waters.

    Casting Seed By Pastor Jim May Some time ago I walking in one of the parks around town and I saw an old man sitting on a bench feeding the pigeons. It seemed that the more seed he cast out, the more pigeons would appear. There were only a few to begin with but it wasn’t long until the sky will ...read more

    Jesus talks with a Samaritan woman who is "drinking" of the water of relationships. 6 men can’t satisfy her. But the 7th Man, the God-Man Jesus Christ perfectly satisfies!

    Please open your Bibles to John chapter 4. We have a very interesting story here before us this morning, a story of Jesus speaking with a Samaritan woman at a well. This story is interesting because the Jews did not speak with Samaritans. Samaritans were called “half-breeds.” You see when Assyria ...read more

    Faith is an active process and something we must work at. When we become lazy we begin to drift and can end up in waters we dont want to be in.

    Jesus gives his followers a powerful promise when he says that they will accomplish greater works than him. How can we do something greater than walk on water?

    John 14:8-17 “Greater Works Than Jesus” INTRODUCTION Words and phrases leap out at you, at times, when you are reading the Bible. This was certainly true for me in this gospel lesson for Pentecost Sunday, the birth of the Church. I was struck by Jesus statement that his followers will do ...read more

     | 6,037 views

    If you want a happy new year, separate yourself from the world and saturate yourself in the Word. That way you can situate yourself by the water. Otherwise, you will be sifted like wheat.

    In 1948, nobody expected Harry Truman to win re-election as president of the United States. But on election night, the first scattered returns showed Harry Truman leading over Thomas E. Dewey.
