12/7/25 2 Peter 3:8-15 “It’s Party Time!” This is a great time of year, Advent. One of the problems we might have with our organized Christian walk is that we have to observe Advent now, then Epiphany and then Lent and so on. What we should...
11/30/25 Psalm 147 “Count Your Blessings” Sometimes when we do a mini-series like the one we have been doing off and on about prayer, we might begin with an attitude of ‘what more can I learn about something as basic as prayer?’ This might be very...
11/23/25 Ezekiel 34:11-16, 20-24 “Christ the King!” Once again, I would like to say to you, “Happy Christ the King Sunday!” This is not only Christ the King Sunday but it is also the last Sunday of the church year. I guess that would make this...
11/16/25 2 Thess. 3:6-16 “You Can Be an Inspiration!” As we are going to talk a little about work today, I thought that I might define work. The definitions were a little vague so I found this from David Owens. I have to agree with him...
10/26/25 Matt. 22:34-46 “All of Your Heart” I think that most of you know that this is my favorite time of year when we have all our church meetings. I’m only joking. The meetings are good but not all the paper work that goes along with...
10/19/25 Lev. 25:8-24 “Jubilee for Everyone!” We talked a little last week about parts of the Law that are found in the New Testament that we are supposed to follow. I think that sometimes we don’t like to do things or follow things because they are...
10/12/25 Romans 13:11-14 “GET UP!” We are heading into another season of fall. At least we don’t have major elections this year. I don’t know about you but I get really tired of all that. But I guess that it is a very necessary part of...
10/5/25 Romans 13:8-10 “Be a Loving Apple Tree” I have been watching the news this past week with a somewhat heavy heart. There was a time early on in my life when I didn’t read newspapers and only saw the TV news once in a while. ...
9/28/25 Romans 12:14-21 “A Little Bag of Jelly Beans” Last week I talked a little about love from our series on Romans 12 and we found that love isn’t always what we think it is. There might even be people who hear me talk about what...
9/21/25 Romans 12:9-13 “Love Is Hating Evil!” No matter what people say, I think that we still live in one of the safest places on earth. I also know that we aren’t nearly as safe as we were 100 years ago, 50 years ago or even...
