    Here, the Israelites became distracted from their purpose by a desire for worldly gain. They sought a more luxurious existence, with the ease of someone else doing all the work, and they ran from battle and confrontation.

    In 1797 the governor of Louisiana granted Daniel Boone ten thousand acres of land in Missouri; however, he failed to make the trip to New Orleans to complete the title. He instead became distracted by an opportunity to be appointed chief of the district of St. Charles.(1) While he was ...read more

    The deceitfulness of riches and the feeling of self-sufficiency are threats to Christian faith and life. Jesus warns against worldliness and the lukewarm attitude of Christians in Laodicea. Christians must return to their first love of Christ to avoid

    Revelation 3__4-22 the Lukewarm Church "Blessed are the Lukewarm." Jesus never said that, but from the lackadaisical attitude of many of his followers, you would think that was one of his beatitudes. That is the attitude of our Western Civilization and cultural Christians. That was the attitude ...read more

    This sermon addresses the reason that many Christians find themselves struggling in the world that they should be impacting. Unfortunatly if we let little foxes roam in our lives then we discover ourselves slowing slipping into living a life of compromise

    A world full of slipping standards – Song of Solomon 2:15 Do you believe that God has a plan for your life? We all know Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the plans I have for you declares the Lord. Plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you a hope and a future. It really is a cool piece ...read more

    The rise of two ancient world powers, Rome and Babylon, during the Great Tribulation, only to be destroyed by Christ when He comes again, presents us with a choice. We can choose to pursue this world, which is passing away, or Christ, who reigns forever.

    Once upon a time, a really cool young man bought one of the best cars around: a Ferrari GTO. He took it out for a spin and stopped at a red light. An old man on a moped pulled up next to him. The old man looked over at the sleek, shiny car and asked, “What kind of car ya' got there, ...read more

    Under The Sun Series

    The focus of this sermon is to introduce the series on the book of Ecclesiastes and the idea that life lived in the hear and now (i.e., under the sun) cannot compare to a life lived under the Son (Jesus Christ)

    Good morning. It is great to be back in the ‘burgh rain and all. For some of you who don’t know, I was away for a few weeks for a sabbatical. It was a study time, and I was able to feel somewhat productive. I also had a time of rest. The better news is Debbie and I got to see our lovely ...read more

    Marriage–avoiding Fornication

    Practical instructions for righteous behavior. The assembly at Corinth was having problems with division, worldly sinful behaviors within and how to cope with non-believers. Satan was still deceiving them as he continues deception today.

    We have studied, in past weeks, practical instructions for righteous behavior in the assemblies of God. Apostle Paul wrote letters to a mixed assembly of Jews and Gentiles at Corinth; new converts, being young in the faith, and older, more seasoned members in the faith of Jesus Christ. The assembly ...read more

    based on 3 ratings
     | 15,037 views

    Satan’s aim is to destroy our faith and to destroy our church. If he can destroy our faith, then we’ll destroy our church for him. And if he destroys the church, our faith will follow.

    The Devil goes to church … did you know that? He has his favorite pew. He has his favorite hymns. He loves to see a church stuck in a rut because that’s a dying church. He loves a divided church because constant conflict keeps the church distracted from what it’s supposed to be doing. He’s ...read more

    This church instead of impacting the world the world had an impact on it. Sadly to say this appears to be much like today.

    The World in the Church Revelation 2:12-17 We are about to study the third Church in which the Lord writes. The Church of Ephesus was challenged to fall in love with Him again and the Church of Smyrna was praise for their faithful in the mist of persecution. They were poor by the world’s ...read more

    Who's Your Daddy?

    Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Apr 23, 2013
     | 8,419 views

    Wikipedia states that, “Who's your daddy? is an expression used as a boastful claim of dominance over the intended listener. We see it in sports when someone beats their opponent. It’s like another saying, “I own you”. It’s fitting to use in a spiritual s

    WHO’S YOUR DADDY? John 8:31-47 Introduction: According to Wikipedia, “Who's your daddy? is a slang expression that, in one use, takes the form of a rhetorical question. It is commonly used as a boastful claim of dominance over the intended listener.” We see it often in the sports ...read more

    How cynical are you? How has it affected your faith?

    I want you to think back a few years ago to when you were three-years-old. If three is a stretch for you, how about thinking back to being five? What were you like at that age? Do you think you were more or less cynical than you are today? If you are anything like me, you don’t have to ...read more

    HoHum: A 4 year old was at the pediatrician for a check up. As the doctor looked down her ears with an otoscope, he asked, “Do you think I’ll find Big Bird in here?” The little girl said nothing. Next, the doctor took a tongue depressor and looked down her throat. He asked, ...read more

    By faith, do what others cannot do and live a life pleasing to God: fear God more than you fear anybody else; forsake whatever this world has to offer; and follow the Lord to victory in your own life.

    On Memorial Day, our thoughts often turn to those who have passed away, especially to those who gave their lives serving our country. They risked everything so we could have the freedoms we enjoy today. If you served in the military at any time, would you please stand, so we can express our ...read more
