    How does God want me to pray?

    We’re going to be talking about four letter words that, when used here in the Church make us cringe, raise an eyebrow or we shy away from because they make us uncomfortable. And I’m not talking about curse words, although we might give a similar reaction. I’m talking about ...read more

    Instead of going into a long explanation on subjects, Jesus taught in principles saying, "When you pray, say, . . ." and He gave them a pattern that also included prayer principles.

    WHY ARE YOU WEEPING JESUS? Luke 19:41-42 INTRODUCTION: A. This morning you heard the children from Wacky Wednesday sing a song proclaiming “Hosanna.” 1. The idea for the song is taken from the account of what has been called “Christ’s Triumphal Entry” and is usually preached on Psalm ...read more

    We see in the Bible that the curse is why Jesus died. To remove the curse of sin and death. We will also see the cross where Jesus died and the Crown why Jesus lives.

    Intro: Paul’s letter to the Galatians is addressing what man seems always to do. Either add to or take away from God’s word. It began in the garden with Adam and Eve. Adam disregarded God’s word and Eve added to it. I’ve got to quote John Piper, “Satan is continuously at work tempting us to ...read more

    Why do the people in Capernaum seek Jesus? What does the world seek? Why should we seek Jesus?

    What do we seek? Today’s Gospel is set in Capernaum on the day of the Sabbath. Jesus had a support base here with two Disciples, Simon Peter and his brother Andrew, calling this place home. With friends nearby, this city will become Jesus’ Galilean home and the staging point for part of His ...read more

    The great thing is that as Christians, we don't have to wait until there is proclamation, or wait for a certain day in order to pray. The call to pray is stated clearly in scripture. One place especially clear is found in II Chronicles 7:14.

    Alba 5-5-2024 PRAY II Chronicles 7:14 This past Thursday, May 2nd, was the National Day of Prayer. A bill was passed on April 17, 1952 stating that: “The President shall set aside and proclaim a suitable day each year, other than a Sunday, as a National Day of Prayer, on which the people of ...read more

    Relevant principles for all believers that would help in developing and sustaining a vibrant prayer life

    Introduction: That prayer is important and is powerful is a statement that I would like to believe most of us would agree on. Yet despite this firm belief, we all, at one time or another, or perhaps even now, struggle to maintain a strong and healthy prayer life. In fact, truth be told, of all ...read more

    The Bible teaches that before we can really begin to talk about Heaven…before we can really begin to prepare for Heaven…we need to understand the Resurrection.

    The No. 1 Best Seller of books on Amazon.com in the category of Christian Living (and now made into a movie) is a book called Heaven is for Real: A Little Boy's Astounding Story of His Trip to Heaven and Back.

    Since we need to talk about the Passion film with our friends, we have to be prepared to answer their questions. It’s a mystery to non-believers: Why did Christ have to suffer so? Why did He have to die?

    Sarcastic reviews. Late night jokes. Hateful criticism. Promises to ban him from work in Hollywood. Mel Gibson has faced all that and more over the last year. All because of the making of The Passion of the Christ. Why all the controversy? The brutality? R-rated slasher movies come out ...read more

    What’s this season all about anyway? Consider what it would be if Jesus had not come. Even our Calendars reflect the coming of the Christ.

    Charles Broadrick sent me this list of things that feel good to experience or just think about: Laughing so hard your face hurts. No lines at the Super Walmart. Getting mail from a friend. Taking a drive on a pretty road. Hearing your favorite song on the radio. Lying in bed listening to the rain ...read more
