You are Blessed by God
You may not realize it, but you are blessed. You may not feel it, but you are blessed. You may not even expect it, but you are blessed. About the only time you realize you have been blessed by God is when you look back at where you have been. At that time, Jesus stood…
Read MoreEpisode 441 – Gratitude is a Way of Life
We say ‘thank you’ all the time, but we rarely live a life of gratitude. Being truly thankful requires a life-change, more than just a few words. When we want to thank God, we come to His Church, bow and worship Him, and live a new life of gratitude. Transcript: My brothers and sisters, in…
Read MoreIs there a limit to God’s Power?
The power of prayer. The power of faith. As Christians we are always talking about and invoke the power the God. Still, bad things happen. Still, sick people die. Still, evil seems to be spreading. You might begin to wonder if there is a limit to God’s power. Well, yes and no. About that time,…
Read MorePlanning the Unplannable
Do I invest in a retirement plan, or live paycheck to paycheck? As Christians we are expected to live in the moment and let the future worry about itself. What happens when the future comes, and I am not ready? That doesn’t sound like ‘fun’ to be out in the cold if only I had…

Read MoreKnow Your Place
There is a place for everyone in the Church. That place is not just in the pews, but in the ministry of the Church. Nobody can do everything, but everybody must do something. If the ministry of Christ depended upon only the clergy, the Gospel would never spread. BRETHREN, grace was given to each of…
Read MoreTemptations Never End
We wake every day to the same reality. The sun shines. The winds blow. Temptation attacks. Like a natural force of weather, temptation blows, and we get ‘pushed around’ like branches in a tree. The key isn’t to avoid the wind, but to prepare the branches. In those days Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee…
Read MoreWanted Dead or Alive!
As you may know I was raised in the west, sometimes called the wild west, where legends of famous outlaws blanketed history. In every small town you could always find a sign to purchase to hassle your best friends. The saying was for outlaws, but Christ wants us alive, not dead. Brethren, all who have…
Read MoreGod Was Seen Among His People
When people say ‘seeing is believing’ they are expressing more than just doubt. Something that can be seen is real and tangible. With our human perception and sensory system, we all eventually believe what can be ‘revealed’ to us. Well, God was revealed to His people. TIMOTHY, my son, those who serve well as deacons…
