    Are we disobedient to God or do we follow him without question?

    As you can tell, our scripture readings today have a theme. You may have to think a bit, but it does help if you read the sermon title and also were listening during the children’s moments. Both our stories relate to fish: one to a big fish story and one to fishermen at their nets. There has ...read more

    The obedience of Jonah, Peter, James and John is a model for our own obedience to the Lord

    “Just do it! Just do it”! So goes the Nike sneaker company. Speaking of sneakers and being sneaky, that company wants one thing: “Just do it” -buy their shoes.

    Will You Follow Jesus

    This message is designed to challenge our followship of Jesus Christ.

    This message topic "Will you follow Jesus"? is an easy question to answer, but a challenge to abide. It is easy saying yes to Jesus, but the challenge comes when we must let those things go that hinder our Christian growth. In our text, we see four men who answered the call of Christ and followed ...read more

    Jesus said he would make us fishers of men, yet we are like Jonah who was called to preach to the people of Ninevah -- we run away as fast as we can!

    Jonah 3:1-10 Then the word of the LORD came to Jonah a second time: "Go to the great city of Nineveh and proclaim to it the message I give you." Jonah obeyed the word of the LORD and went to Nineveh. Now Nineveh was a very important city-- a visit required three days. On the first day, Jonah ...read more

    This is a fun sermon to preach! God’s call extends from the ordinary (apostles) to the extraordinary (Jonah). Many times God calls us through the subtlety of invitation as in this text. We are invited to go and do likewise.

    Jesus’ authority makes certain demands on us, but it also empowers us to follow Him wholeheartedly.

    The Big Boss From Galilee Mark 1:14-28 Introduction About a year ago I was struggling with one of the boys in Sunday School.

    By repentance we give glory to our Creator whom we have offended; by faith we give glory to our Redeemer who came to save us from our sins. When you think of all that Christ has done for you, you’ll want to do your best for Him.
