Last week we began this message on, “Our Bodies Are not Our Own.” My desire for us is that I want you to see based on God’s Word that Our bodies are not our own because God is ultimately the one who has given them to us. He has uniquely designed each and everyone of us and He has fearfully and wonderfully…

Modern medicine truly is a marvel. A drug, made up of both active and inactive ingredients, combined in the right way, administered in the right way, at the right time, at the right dosage, for the right duration, and for the right purpose can achieve the right results.

I appeal to you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God, which is your spiritual worship.

Message What is the mind? Our minds are almost always working - even when we are asleep. As we go about our day, our minds are busy processing and analyzing everything that our senses tell us, but I would guess that very few of us have ever spent much time thinking about our own thoughts. We don’t normally…

C.S. Lewis once said, “Christians have talked as if Christianity thinks that sex or the body, or the pleasure we experience within our bodies were bad in themselves. But they are wrong. Christianity is almost the only one of the great religions that throughly approves of the body, which believes that…

I know of a young man who grew up in church. Every Sunday he was in the pews and every Wednesday was at youth group.

Secular - Here are a couple of stories about people who faced consequences for their actions, lack thereof, or someone else’s actions. A pastor is walking down the street one day when he notices a very small boy trying to press a doorbell on a house across the street. However, the boy is very small and…

Things that inspire awe The view of creation, our feelings on our wedding day, an expensive steak or meal, getting your dream job, riding a motorcycle for the first time, beautiful music Nothing is more crushing than if we have something that inspires awe in our lives taken away.

Read Psalm 91 Affirmations together Faith that Works series… 18 But someone will say, “One person has faith, another has actions.” My answer is, “Show me how anyone can have faith without actions.

Romans 3 In times past many of us here today would have been viewed with suspicion in many of our churches. Only the upright, respectable christian who hadn’t publically done anything remotely scandalous was welcome. Wild clothing, financial difficulties, divorce, children who had gone off the rails,…

A man shopping in his grocery store one day and noticed a lady with her 2 year-old in her cart. The child asked for cookies but her mother said no. The little girl began to cry loudly. The mother patiently said, "Now Missy, we’re half-way done, it won’t be long." The same thing happened in the candy…

Where is the hope It would seem to me that very few people have hope these days. For instance if I were to mention politics, I generally get a big groan, and regardless of whether you are on the more progressive side of politics, or the more conservative side, the thing that seems to unite everyone is…

We are all searching for something. The ads have told us so. Maybe we have been poked and prodded to “make a list”. Our politicians tell us we are searching for their leadership. May I ask this evening, “what are you searching for?” Our world is hurting. We have drugs, disease, division and pain all…

Rise and Shine! That’s a wake-up call if ever there was one. Whether it be at boot camp or at kids’ camp, those words ring out loud and clear. They proclaim that the night is over, a new day has come. It’s time to move from sleep to action, from rest to work. Throughout the Scriptures, from beginning…

What Does Your Forgiveness Cost? 16 “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. 17 For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. 36 Whoever believes…

The Secret of a Loving Heart – Gratitude. Luke 7:36-47 1/ Humiliation is something we all seek to avoid! I guess most of us have been extremely embarrassed at some time in our life.
