    OPEN: Before he died, comedian John Ritter starred in a fairly successful TV sitcom. Does anybody remember the name of that show? (8 Simple Rules For Dating My Daughter). Now, I never watched that show, so I don’t know if they ever shared what those “8 simple rules” actually were. However, years ...read more

    A sinful high place is any area, thought, person, or relationship that I allow to remain in my life as a provision for the flesh, to satisfy the sinful desires of my heart.

It is exam ...read more

    Messages discusses how and why we need to guard our eyes in today's culture.

    The key to surviving temptation involves guarding our eyes with all diligence. In Matthew 18:9, Jesus said if your eye causes you to sin pluck it out! Seems rather drastic but it makes the point. No we are not saying pluck out your eyes but we are saying do what's necessary to avoid/shun evil. You ...read more

    Be watchful. Guard your faith. Guard your marriage. Guard yourself.

    The theme of this passage is rather clear because of one word repeated a few times - faithless (ESV), broken faith (NIV), treachery (KJV), being unfaithful. • The people has been unfaithful to God and to one another. They had betrayed God and broken the trust with Him. • Their disregard for God ...read more

    A person may be walking in the Light of Christ and then take their eyes off from Him. This always leads to the disaster of walking in the darkness if it goes unchecked and unrepented for too long. Don't take the first step in the wrong direction ...

    Wandering From The LIGHT Please stand as we read our newest memory Scripture together … 1 John 1:5-7 “This is the message we have heard from Him and declare to you: God is light; in Him there is no darkness at all.

    At one time or other all of us have been removed from our usual roles in life and have found ourselves in strange situations. When this happened we did not know quite what to do with ourselves.

    All of us have a particular group of people that we are comfortable with. While we know some people are quite versatile and can adapt themselves to any group they associate with, others have a hard time adapting.

    3 Simple Rules For Making A Marriage Work Series

    Contributed by Scott Maze on Sep 12, 2022
     | 1,583 views

    In the next few moments, I want to help you celebrate marriage, whether married, divorced, or single. God gave us marriage for our happiness. God gave us marriage to be a blessing in our lives. Your marriage can serve as a catalyst for your relationship with God.

    When I say the word “marriage,” what do you think? Are you a little jaundice about the idea of marriage? I spoke to a lady recently who said when I got married I was looking for the ideal, instead, the marriage became an ordeal, so now I want a new deal. One day, a man went to the Super Bowl, ...read more

    This the second sermon in a series based on The Book of Proverbs. Based on the TV game show "Let's Make a Deal," in which contestants struggle with the desire of their hearts -- to win "big" prizes or money, the choices we reveal the desires of our heart.

    I’m going to assume that you all are familiar with a popular little game show called “Let’s Make a Deal.” It’s been on for, like, ever it seems. The “contestants” are offered various “mystery prizes” to choose from. Some of the prizes are really amazing and some of the prizes … well, they’re ...read more

    Like An Ox To The Slaughter Series

    Contributed by Gordon Pike on Oct 23, 2022
     | 959 views

    Wouldn't be nice if the choice we have to make in life where black and white, simple and clear cut ... but they aren't. In Proverbs 7, Solomon uses a 'spicy' way to discussing how Sin can be right up in our face and yet we can't see it ... until it's too late.

    Last week we looked at Proverbs 9 in which Solomon contrasts Lady Wisdom with Lady Folly. Solomon attempts to make the choice between Wisdom and Folly as clear and as obvious as possible in the hopes of helping us to make the right choice. Would that it were that simple, amen, as making such an ...read more
