    (1) In prayer, we are engaging an active God who respond. (2) In prayer, do not limit the way God respond to you; and (3) in prayer, God converse with you as His friend.

    [I’ve take most thoughts in this sermon from John White’s book People in Prayer.] Last week we look at one of God’s promise when a person prays: • Heb 11:6 “...anyone who comes to Him must believe that He exists and that He rewards those who earnestly seek Him.” • God gives us a promise, that if ...read more

    A meditation on Biblical themes joined by the word laughter.

    I had a terrible thing happen a few weeks ago when I was taking a service in a wee church (that shall remain nameless) in the country.

    A sermon on intercessory prayer based on Abraham’s pleas to save Sodom.

    The “If” of Intercession Gen. 18:16-33 INTRO.: The little conjunction “if” appears 1784 times in the New International Version of the Bible. In the NT, 653 times.

    Does one bad apple really spoil the bunch? Can one good apple redeem the bad bunch?

    There is in our culture an ancient yet conventional piece of wisdom. It is so ancient that it was part of the teachings of ancient Israel, but it is so conventional, that it was taught to all of us by our grade school and Sunday school teachers. Our 3rd grade teacher probably put it to us as ...read more

    What would you do if God came to dinner? Abraham gives his best to the Lord and receives fellowship, promise, and plans for the future in return.

    Two things are accomplished in this chapter - a visit from God Himself for two reasons: blessings and judgment. God is reminding Abraham - and especially Sarah - of the promised son, and to engage Abraham in a discussion about judging sin. It teaches about God’s character and intercession. Verse ...read more

    From our earliest memories of kneeling by the bed to recite, "Now I lay me down to sleep..." pray has played an important role in our lives. If you’ve forgotten the "who, what, when, where, why and how" of praying, here are some helpful "Be-Attitudes" tha

    From our earliest memories of kneeling by the bed and saying, “Now I lay me down to sleep, I pray the Lord my soul to keep. If I should die before I wake, I pray the Lord my soul to take.

    Wouldn’t you agree with me, that it is a great tragedy to sit idle in our little Christian box and let people die in sin and go to Hell without an attempt to rescue them?

    SOUL SEARCHING Gen 18:16-33 16 And the men rose up from thence, and looked toward Sodom: and Abraham went with them to bring them on the way. 17 And the Lord said, Shall I hide from Abraham that thing which I do; 18 Seeing that Abraham shall surely become a ...read more

    We live in perilous & prosperous times. We have every modern convenience and an abundance of leisure time. We live amongst cities like Sodom and Gomorrah. We profit by living in the shadow of their wickedness. Are we just Negotiating with God?

    Negotiating with God The title for this mornings message is Negotiating with God. I must admit straight out that I am not a great negotiator. My wife would give me very strict instructions to keep my mouth shut when we went looking for a new car or any other major purchase. Having grown up in ...read more

    Abraham and God go back-and-forth as friends, in a cordial and remarkable dialogue, and we see in their exchange the consideration of God. He’s not a tyrant; we can appeal to Him.
