    God has sounded the warning time and time again. And each year that warning is louder than ever before: Judgment is coming, but there is a way out through Jesus Christ.

    Alba 2-11-2024 BE READY FOR CHRIST'S RETURN I Thessalonians 5:1-11 Soren Kierkegaard, a Danish theologian and philosopher of the 1800's, once told the story of a variety show in a crowded theater with various acts.

    Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on Feb 5, 2024
     | 626 views

    There are at least seven things we can know about the Second Coming of our Lord, Jesus Christ found in I Thessalonians 4:13-18. And the apostle Paul, who wrote this letter, explains these things so that we will not be ignorant about them.

    Alba 2-4-2024 SEVEN THINGS WE CAN KNOW ABOUT THE SECOND COMING I Thessalonians 4:13-18 Janine's family had a special treat for breakfast occasionally.

    Let Your Life Shine

    Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on Feb 5, 2024
     | 586 views

    If we want to have influence in this world, we had better shine. We need to let our life shine so that others will be attracted to our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

    Alba 1-28-24 LET YOUR LIFE SHINE I Thessalonians 4:9-12 The military has a history of requiring that boots be polished until they shine.

    God Calls Us To Holiness

    Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on Jan 22, 2024
     | 482 views

    Note: The Lord did not call us to uncleanness, but to holiness. And to be specific, this text calls us to holiness in sexual conduct. In fact it is clear from these verses that if we are going to walk in a way that is pleasing to God, this will be a priority.

    Alba 1-21-2024 GOD CALLS US TO HOLINESS I Thessalonians 4:1-8 Little Rob Thomas was motivated more by recess than by any of his classes. For an hour one day, when he was in the second grade, Rob had avoided working on his math sheet. Then the teacher told him that every problem would have to be ...read more

     | 996 views

    Don't you get tired of all the negative news? There is good news if we will look for it. The apostle Paul was hoping to find some good news, and he found it in Timothy's report on how the church in Thessalonica was doing.

    Alba 1-7-2024 LOOK FOR GOOD NEWS I Thessalonians 3:6-13 Have you noticed that newspapers and TV news casts give mostly negative news? I have read that positive new doesn't sell. But don't you get tired of all the negative news? Well amazingly, I found a website called “Good News ...read more

    Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on Jan 1, 2024
     | 667 views

    We are facing a New Year, and while that can mean hope for a better future, the past and its troubles casts a shadow over that hope that is hard to ignore. We are living in a shaky world.

    Alba 12-31-2023 FACING A NEW YEAR IN A SHAKY WORLD I Thessalonians 3:1-5 Have you ever gone to a scary movie? When I was twelve years old some friends and I walked to a movie theater that was about two miles from our home. The movie was called “Them”. It was not the kind of movie our family ...read more

    Alba 12-24-2023 UNTO YOU IS GIVEN – A SIGN Luke 2:10-12 It is important to be aware of the signs that everyday are all around us.

    Unto You Is Born - The Lord Series

    Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on Dec 17, 2023
     | 644 views

    In the 1980's there was a television program called “Who's the Boss?” That question could be asked of any person's life. Who is it that calls the shots? Who gives direction? Who is in charge? Frank Sinatra sang, “I did it my way”. But sadly, that does not always work out well.

    Alba 12-17-2023 UNTO YOU IS BORN – THE LORD Luke 2:10-11 If you have ever worked for a boss, you know that you are expected to do whatever the boss tells you to do. Some bosses are good, and some bosses are bad. Readers Digest had an article about bad bosses. Gail Snyder from Georgia told ...read more

    There are many stories about people being saved that could be pulled from history today, but I am going focus on just one.

    Has Satan Hindered You?

    Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on Nov 27, 2023
     | 826 views

    In fact if we are really trying our best to follow Jesus, there are times it seems we could say, “The devil wouldn't let me do it.” Let's be sure about this, the devil's power is limited. But even the apostle Paul said that the devil got in his way and caused his plans to change.

    Alba 11-12-2023 HAS SATAN HINDERED YOU? I Thessalonians 2:17-20 A mother and her boy went to an ice cream store. It only had vanilla and chocolate. "Why you don’t have more flavors?" the mother asked. The guy behind the counter said, "Lady, if you knew how long it took people to ...read more

    The Joseph Principle

    Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on Nov 22, 2023
     | 768 views

    But that principle does not apply to the story of Joseph in Genesis. In fact, the example of how Joseph succeeded and was used by God is the opposite of the Peter Principle. It is enough different that it deserves its own name. It can be called the Joseph Principle.

    Alba 6-30-13 THE JOSEPH PRINCIPLE Genesis 50:19-21 Have you heard of the Peter Principle? It was formulated by Laurence J. Peter and Raymond Hull in their 1969 book called The Peter Principle. The Peter Principle is a proposition that states that the members of an organization where promotion ...read more

    Reasons To Thank God

    Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on Nov 6, 2023
     | 778 views

    The apostle Paul went through a lot of troubles, but he always found reasons to thank God. When writing to the church in Thessalonica he says that there were many things about them for which he continued to be thankful.

    Alba 11-5-2023 REASONS TO THANK GOD I Thessalonians 2:13-16 H.A. Ironside, who was the minister at Moody Church in Chicago last century, told of an experience he had in a crowded restaurant.

    Walk Worthy Of God

    Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on Nov 2, 2023
     | 868 views

    You may have heard of a rather pompous-looking deacon who was speaking to a class of boys about the importance of living the Christian life. “Why do people call me a Christian?” the man asked. After a moment’s pause, one youngster said, “Maybe it’s because they don’t know you.”

    Alba 10-29-2023 WALK WORTHY OF GOD I Thessalonians 2:9-12 You may have heard of a rather pompous-looking deacon who was speaking to a class of boys about the importance of living the Christian life. “Why do people call me a Christian?” the man asked.

    How To Please God

    Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on Oct 23, 2023
     | 908 views

    We can’t live up to our own expectations any more than we can live up to everyone else’s demands. For a Christian, the goal is not to please self, but to please God.

    Alba 10-22-2023 HOW TO PLEASE GOD I Thessalonians 2:1-8 Back in 1975 Rick Nelson recorded a song called “Garden Party.” The song tells about the day he learned the truth: "You can’t please everyone."
