    Make Yourself Heard Above The Crowd

    Can you imagine a mother hearing her baby cry and just ignoring it? No way! A mother will do whatever she can to find out what her baby wants or needs and tend to that need. Can you imagine God knowing that we have a need and ignoring it? Not a chance!

    Good morning boys and girls! How many of you have a little brother or a little sister? How about a puppy or a kitten? How do they get attention when they want something? They whine or cry when they are hungry, thirsty tired or wet. For example, babies don’t care if they are home or in a ...read more

     | 6,756 views

    Some in the Church were complaining. The text makes it appear that their complaining was like the “buzzing of bees.” The topic was the welfare of the widows in the congregation. In that day the only help that widows received came from the Church.

    Two Lessons We Must Learn Acts 6:1-15, 7:54-60 Introduction Our study of the book of Acts makes it clear that the Church has displayed its ability to handle the opposition of an unfriendly world. For example, last week we read that the ...read more

    Christians are taught to treat the vulnerable with compassion and with generosity. The study is based upon the practised instituted by Moses for Israel, which practise is continued among the churches to this day.

If you do mistreat them, and they cry out to me, I will surely hear their cry, and my wrath will burn, and I will kill you with the sword, and your ...read more

     | 5,887 views

    The Story of the widows mite shows us what it really means to give. It is not some percentage that we are required to give. Instead the widows meager offering shows how we are to give all to our Great God.

    Intro: One Sunday in church a little boy took off his tie and put it into the offering plate. “What are you doing?” asked his mother. “The preacher told us to give our ties and offerings.” It is apparent that the young boy misunderstood what the preacher said. It is also apparent today in ...read more
