Speak God’s Name with Respect
Today my message is entitled “Speak God’s Name with Respect.” This is from the Sunday School material being used right now. We are looking at each of these commandments in a series of sermons and Sunday School lessons. Parents and children will be looking at the same subject each week…
God Says to Have None but Me
Today my message is ‘God says have none but Me’ – We are to worship God alone. Last week, we looked at the setting for Moses receiving the Ten Commandments on stone tablets. The people were grumbling again, and God wanted to talk to them, to give them some guidance…
God gave Moses the Ten Commandments
Today my message is “God gave Moses the Ten Commandments.” God gave us loving laws to keep us safe. This is the beginning of a series on the Ten Commandments. We are going to look at why God gave these tablets of writing and how we deal with them today…
God is an Awesome God!
Today my message is “God is an Awesome God!” There is so many examples in the Bible of God’s mighty work and guidance. I want to look at some of the times where the people were in awe of God and what that means, to them and to us today…
Trust on God
Today my message is ‘Trust on God’. Last week we looked at ‘Call on God’. We found that God will hear our call and respond. Today we are looking at trusting and depending on God, which is what faith is all about. It is through faith that we can trust God and depend on the love of God that Molly’s poem describes…
Call on God
Today my message is ‘Call on God’. We have talked about who God is and how He made mankind, why Jesus came to earth and died, came back to life and taught us that God wants an intimate relationship with us and we can have that relationship through faith in Jesus Christ…
Can you run from God?
Today my message is ‘Can You run from God?’ We are looking at the book of Jonah today. This is one of my favorite stories of God reaching out to give direction and grace to one who has turned away from God’s leading. I relate to this story because I did the same thing as a young…
Seven Habits of Highly Effective Churches
Today my message is ‘Seven Habits of Highly Effective Churches’. I found this list in a book by Robert C. Girard, “The Book of Acts- the Smart Guide to the Bible.” It caught my attention because I see this church fitting into the list and it made me appreciate all the work you all do…
God Does Miracles, Nothing is Impossible
Today my message is “God Does Miracles, Nothing is Impossible!” Why do we doubt that miracles happen? How come we do not see miracles when they happen? Why do we limit what we can do for God?…
God Transforms Tragedies into Triumphs!
We all suffer tragedies, setbacks, or illness at some time. Do those tragedies overcome us and destroy us? Or do we overcome them and grow and be stronger and wiser? How can we make sure we survive? Today, we will look at the answers…
What a Celebration!
Paul wrote in Romans that salvation through Jesus Christ was the only way to God. He spent lots of verses in teaching us how that is true. Now I want to look at two verses from Paul that give us cause to celebrate on this day of celebrating our God-given nation’s birth…
Holy Spirit, Who Are You?
We have been looking at the Triune God – the Trinity. We have studied the Father and the Son these past two weeks and today we look at the Holy Spirit. Who is the Holy Spirit? Is the Holy Spirit God? How do we know the Holy Spirit?…
Good, Good Father
Last week we started looking at the Triune God (The Trinity), and we looked at Jesus Christ, the Son. Today on Father’s Day, we are looking at God as the good, good Father.
Jesus Christ The Son
For three Sundays we will look at the Triune God, the Trinity. We will see how the Bible teaches that God is Father, Son and Holy Spirit – all one. I started with the Son since it was more appropriate to do the Father on Father’s Day. It does not matter which order you look at the Triune God – the truth is the same. This series came about from a question I received from several people, “How do we know and prove that the Trinity is real?”…
God Grows Me
For many years the answer I gave when people questioned my actions, in light of my professing to be a Christian was, “I am a work in progress, God is not finished with me yet.” In their eyes, I was not walking true to their understanding of God’s Word. Now I can use the title of the sign outside – it says, “God Makes Me the Person My Dog Already Thinks I Am!” as my reply…
Building Relationships
We want to share our belief in the Lord Jesus Christ with everyone because Jesus can change their lives. Unfortunately, we sometimes put the teaching ahead of the relationship and never get a chance to be heard…
Pentecost, a Fresh Start!
Today my message is “Pentecost, a Fresh Start!” We will look at some Scriptures that answer the two obvious questions that pop up in your head – “what is Pentecost and how does it create a fresh start?”…
Powerful Women
It is Mother’s Day and as we celebrate all mothers, I want to consider why mothers are “Powerful Women”. To do this, I am going to look back at several mothers from the Bible and some from right now today…
I believe in God but I do not think the church is important
Today my message is “I believe in God but I do not think the church is important.” When God gave this to me, I did not think about how this title would stir people up.
