9/20/20 James 3:13-18 “The Best Deal Around!” I think that this is the fourth Sunday that we have looked into the book of James. There are a couple of things worth mentioning about the book as a whole before we get into today’s lesson. The first...
9/13/20 James 3:1-13 “Two Ears, One Mouth!” This is always a fun time of year when I can start to welcome people back from their summer vacations. Have you ever noticed how even if you take a vacation or the summer off, life doesn’t take time...
9/6/20 James 2:1-13 “Warnings and Angels” I think that it is interesting how sometimes after I give a sermon on a certain topic, that I will open the paper, or hear on the radio or be involved in a conversation that is the exact point of...
8/30/20 James 1:17-27 “Bobblehead Jesus or Loving Your Enemy?” I think that there is a nasty trend in this country to try to package Jesus in a way that is pleasing to everyone. I went on the internet the other day and this is what I...

8/9/20 John 6:35, 41-51 “A Record Amount of Love!” I was thinking this past week of the year that we have had. I’m talking about the year from last fall until now. We started out by having a lot of snow although we didn’t get much...
8/2/20 Ephesians 3:14-21 “You Can Have Power Beyond Belief!” When I was growing up, we had very few things that ran on batteries. The things that did would only run for little while as the batteries weren’t that good. Transistors were just becoming popular so then...
7/19/20 Mark 6:30-44, 52-56 “Be in the Midst of Jesus!” I have a confession to make today. I’m a man. There it is. I do things like men do because that is the way we are made. Unfortunately, one of these things is that I think...
7/12/20 Mark 6:14-29 “Saving Face or Saving Grace!” Some of you may already know this but I am a pretty strange guy. I am one of these people who reads a story for the sake of the story. I have read hundreds of books in my...
