12/29/24 Christmas Carols “Three Christmas Songs” I remember last week I talked a little about how this Christmas season just kind of snuck up on us due to the late Thanksgiving. Of course it didn’t but it seems that way. As fast as Christmas came, it...
12/15/24 Matt. 1:18-25 “The Greatest Love Story Ever!” As I sat down to write this, I found that it is hard to believe that Christmas is this close at hand. Where has the time gone? You know what I mean? I guess it seems like this...
12/8/24 Matthew 3:1-12 “It Doesn’t Get Any Better!” We just celebrated Halloween a few weeks back. This is always a very fun time for the children and some adults. They get to dress up in a costume and pretend to be someone that they aren’t. It...
12/1/2024 Romans 13:8-14 “Jesus Will Take Care of the Rest!” Well, I hope that you all had a very Happy New Year and a Happy Thanksgiving as we are now once again starting the season of Advent. If you remember, I say Happy New Year because...

11/3/24 2 Thess. 1:1-12 “Prayer Works So Well!” I learned a lot of things when I taught confirmation, things we don’t think about too often. For instance, we were made in the image of God. To me, this really makes God more personal. Therefore, for me,...
10/27/24 Joel 2:12-13, 23-32 “Did You Bring an Umbrella?” I’m not sure if you know this or not but being in formal ministry can have many pitfalls. And because there are times when I engage my mouth before my brain, I have made my share of...
10/20/24 Romans 15:14-22 “Save One More for Jesus” I have to make an admission today. This is not my favorite time of year. I know that the leaves are very pretty. I know that the crops change and the harvest is on if the weather remains...
