2/10/19      Acts 2:42-47        “Building a Contagious Faith!” Several years ago I met with a very interesting man.  He was from Pakistan and had been raised a Muslim.  Somewhere in his twenties, he came to know Jesus Christ as his personal Savior.  But the cost to him...

2/3/19     Acts 2:36-41      “There Is Only One Truth!” In a few weeks our taxes will be due again.  Now I don’t know about you but I don’t like to do or pay the taxes.  I even have someone do them for me and I still don’t...

1/27/19   Matthew 4:12-23      “Pay It Forward the Christian Way!” I just read an interesting article in Guideposts magazine that got me to thinking.  Look out everyone when you get the pastor thinking!  Anyway it talked about how much healthier people are if the spend 15 minutes...

DEC. 30, 2018   MATTHEW 2:13-23        “GETTING FULFILLMENT!” I hope that everyone had a very merry Christmas this past week.  But what I really pray for is that no one got depressed when it was over because it was over.  It is done.  We won’t have Christmas...

  12/23/18    “THE FORETOLD BIRTH”    ISAIAH 7:10-16 I don’t know if you have noticed, but I try to give credit to the proper person when I tell a story or make a quote.  Today’s sermon idea came from my wife, Sharon, and I would like to give...

12/09/18    MATTHEW 3:1-12       “JESUS ALWAYS HAS TIME FOR YOU!” Many of you don’t know much of my history so I’m going to fill in a couple of blanks today.  I was born and raised in the very northwestern corner of Minnesota.  I grew up on a...

12/2/18    MATT. 24:36-44       “ARE YOU READY FOR JESUS?” This is the time of the Christian year when we get ready for Christmas and we call this season Advent.  It is a time when we look forward to the birth of our Lord Jesus Christ.  Christmas has...

11/25/18       LUKE 21:5-19       “I HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THAT!” When I first looked at today’s Scripture, I began to look for alternate readings right away.  I didn’t want to preach on the end times.  The first one I looked at was warnings against idleness...

11/18/18    LUKE 20:27-40       “WHEN EVIL ATTACKS” I think that many times in our lives we take things for granted.  This is ok when we are talking about things like air, gravity and so forth in the physical world.  And even these things will not be a...
