In spite of all of the blessings that God gave to Abraham's family they still acted selfish and self-centered. They are good examples of what NOT to do with all that God gives us.
Setting a Good Example
We all know that our children mimic many of their parent's actions. Abraham's descendants did that with similar, unfortunate results.
Legacy
We know that our actions can, and often do, affect others around us. This is especially true for our children. What are we doing to guide them towards our Savior?
Providence
The providence of God is strong evidence of God's love for the believer.
Abundant Life
Are believers really living the fullest life that God intended for them? Or are we satisfied with the life we have? God wants us to live our lives in the power of the Holy Spirit.
Reasonable Faith
In spite of a bizarre command, Abraham knew that God would keep the promise that He had made. He didn't need to worry about to details.
Trusting God
Would we have the faith of Abraham? Isaac was his beloved son. The son of promise. But Abraham trusted God at His word, and God delivered him.
God's Greatest Gift
Often at Christmas we think about gifts. Either what we might get, or the gifts we will give to others. We should never forget about God's gift. He gave us Himself.
Desiring Peace
The world has been on a desperate search for peace. They can't seem to find it. That is because they are looking within their own desires. True peace can only be found in a life centered on Christ.
Child of Promise
God's plan for us might take a lot longer than we think it should. But the wait is always better than any plan we could think of.
Thanksgiving Praise 2023
Each day should be Thanksgiving Day for the believer. When the annual Thanksgiving Day comes around each year it reminds us to share our blessings with others. It gives the Christian family an open opportunity to share with non-believers God's goodness to us.
Clear Conscience, Clean Hands
A clear conscience is something that we all desire. But feeling that our conscience is clear, and our hands are clean from sin is not always the way things really are. The only way that we know that is true is to seek after God's will and be obedient to Him.
Loyalty
Recorded November 12th, 2023. Where does your loyalty lay? Most believers would say that it lies with Jesus Christ. But would your family, friends, and co-workers say the same about you? Maybe you have other "gods" in your life. Also, a brief presentation of the purely scientific, non-biblical evidence of the destruction of Sodam and Gomorrah.
Sodom and Gomorrah
They were two of the most evil and sinful places in history. But what of Lot's family? In spite of God saving them from the destruction of the city, they had been contaminated by the sin and sexual perversion that surrounded them.
Missions Festival
Our Sunday morning service with missionary Charlotte Hisle from Portugal.
Trust and Obey
We need to understand that God's plans are always perfect. Even when we don't understand what's going on.
Dedicated to the Lord
If we fully surrender ourselves to God, He will show us His perfect plan for our lives.
The Sign of the Covenant
Abraham was just like us. Often going our own way. But if Abraham would be obedient, God had great plans for him.
The God Who Sees
There are times in our lives that we feel invisible, un-noticed. But God sees our hardship and distress. He always sees us and always loves us.
How Can I Know?
Scripture says that God's promises are sure. But as human beings we can sometimes doubt if we can't see God's hand at work.
