    Unqualified Leader Series

    Contributed by C. Philip Green on Aug 27, 2011
    based on 1 rating
     | 7,113 views

    Trust Christ with your life today, and let Him make you into the leader He wants you to be. Let Him give you a heart for God. Let Him save your family, and let Him make you a real and genuine Christian on the inside as well as the outside.

    Peter Falk (1927-2011), who died just this last June, will always be remembered for the role he played as an eccentric, sloppy detective in the TV series called “Columbo.” More often than not, he played dumb, but that put his subjects off guard, and he was always able to solve his ...read more

    Studies In Genesis: Chapter 37 Series

    Contributed by Edward Hardee on Oct 17, 2011
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,800 views

    This is a study of the book of Genesis. Genesis and Revelation are two of the most disputed books in the Bible. The premise of this study is the foundation of creation.

    Note: When doing a study on a book in the Bible you use a lot of resources. The major influence for me on this study of Genesis is The Genesis Record by Henry Morris. Genesis 37 1. And Jacob dwelt in the land wherein his father was a stranger, in the land of Canaan. 2 These [are] the ...read more

    The inclusion of Tamar in the genealogy of Jesus demonstrates that, even when we find ourselves in a sinful situation because of our desperation, God is still willing to include us into His family line.

    Sin in the life of a child of God will be exposed by the Father who loves us too much to permit us to hide our sin.

    “In the course of time the wife of Judah, Shua’s daughter, died. When Judah was comforted, he went up to Timnah to his sheepshearers, he and his friend Hirah the Adullamite. And when Tamar was told, ‘Your father-in-law is going up to Timnah to shear his sheep,’ she took off her widow’s garments ...read more

    We Owe Everything To God Series

    Contributed by Paul Clemente on Jun 1, 2009
     | 9,372 views

    When we say “we are simply saved by grace”, aren’t we saying that we really owe everything to God?

    Last week we talked about Genesis 37 which talks about the beginning of the story of God’s hero, Joseph. As we will note, there is no mention of Joseph in Genesis 38 and Joseph’s story continues in Genesis 39. God takes a break in telling the story of Joseph with a story about Judah and Tamar. What ...read more

    Last week we discovered the beginning of the story of Joseph. His story began with his brothers selling him into slavery that would take him to Egypt. A tough way to begin your adult life – but God would use it to shape him into the man he needed to be. But the story of Joseph seems to get ...read more

    Perfect… You’re Not Perfect… ~ God

    God doesn't perfect us... then bring us into the church and into church leadership. He perfects us through change, challenge and allows His will to be done through imperfect people.

    Have you ever felt like life never goes the way you plan it? In my life, I had plans to do different things.

    What’s So Amazing About Grace? Series

    Contributed by Paul Barreca on Apr 12, 2013
    based on 4 ratings
     | 12,752 views

    This story of Judah and Tamar reminds us that God’s grace comes in spite of our sin - even through our sin. Grace overcomes the mess that we make of our lives and provides us with something that we could never provide for ourselves.

    There are many passages in the Bible that are difficult to preach. Genesis 38 is right up there at the top of the list. It’s not BORING It’s not DEEP THEOLOGY It’s not IRRELEVANT Simply put, it’s TOO RACY! But the story must be told, because it’s an amazing story about GRACE. The story concerns ...read more

    The Testimony Of Judah

     | 7,516 views

    Judah finds both repentance, and amendment of life.

    THE TESTIMONY OF JUDAH. Genesis 44:18-34. I have often wondered why the account of Joseph’s plight in Egypt is interrupted by a chapter about his half-brother Judah (Genesis 38). However, this part of the narrative (Genesis 37-50) is headed ‘the generations of Jacob’ (Genesis 37:2). The whole of ...read more

    The Choices That We Make

     | 11,957 views

    Life is full of choices. Our choices will affect our future destiny. We must learn to make the right choices with regards to the people we associate and with our duties before God and family.

    THE CHOICES WE MAKE We are now in Genesis 38. This is the story of Judah and Tamar. Not too many preachers talk about this chapter because this is like a parenthesis from the story of Joseph. One whole chapter devoted about the life and sin of Judah while Joseph was sold to Potiphar in Egypt. In ...read more

    To show that GOD will never tolerated wickedness in man, and if that man will not humble himself and come to GOD to repent, GOD will destroy him together with his sins.
