    It was a stewardship Sunday out our church and the lectionary text falls on Mark 10:17-31.

    Mark 10:17-31 17 As he was setting out on a journey, a man ran up and knelt before him, and asked him, “Good Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?” 18 Jesus said to him, “Why do you call me good? No one is good but God alone. 19 You know the commandments: ‘You shall not murder; You ...read more

    God is always calling us onward.

    Have you ever been camping? I do not mean camping in a cabin or camper. I mean camping in the great outdoors, bundled up in a sleeping bag, with nothing but a tent between you and the wild creatures that roam the woods. I have only been once been once and I hated it.

    The Camel Squeezed Out From Tail To Snout

    Jesus call to discipleship is a call of sacrifice. Anything that stands in the way of answering that call must be deserted. This truth is shown through the encounter of Jesus with the rich young ruler.

    Little did I know when I planned this sermon, that we would have a live camel at VBS this year. At any rate, I want to tell you a story. It is the story of the ill-fated Franklin expedition to the Arctic in 1845. That odyssey was a turning point in Arctic exploration because of its well-publicized ...read more

    Ironic isn’t it? We can do so well in our Christian walk, we depend upon our Christian competencies rather than the Holy Spirit.

    Was Jesus kidding? “It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the kingdom of God.” Come on, what does that mean? Certainly Jesus is speaking in metaphors, certainly Jesus is exaggerating, certainly Jesus means something else….. In the city of Jerusalem ...read more

    the common deception is that good people go to heaven, which is not true at all!

    GOOD PEOPLE GO TO HEAVEN, RIGHT? MARK 10.17-31 I remember once having to do a funeral of someone who had no church connections at all. To my knowledge they had no faith in Christ Jesus. Yet at the graveside several members of their family came and asked me if I thought the deceased would be in ...read more

    If you want to be rich in the things that really count, don’t rely on yourself; rely on the Lord. Simply believe in the Savior and don’t boast about your sacrifices. Then you will not only inherit eternal life, you will be first in God’s Kingdom.

    Many years ago, a very wealthy man invited Pastor George A. Truett to a dinner on his Texas ranch. After the meal, he took his pastor to a place where they had a good view of the surrounding area.

    Being good, will not make you a spiritual man or a spiritual woman. Good people don’t go to heaven. Good people are not spiritual people.

    Some people are willing to fulfill the requirement to attain eternal life in God’s kingdom and some find it difficult.

    Text: “Good Teacher, what shall I do that I may inherit eternal life? (v. 17) Did you ever ask that question?

    In life there are so many different forces pulling on us. We are pulled one way by fear, and another by self-righteousness. But thank God that the Cross is always at the center, and nothing is more powerful than the pull of God’s mercy and grace.

    Mark 10:17-22; Mark 10:23-31 This week we are going to be looking at our Gospel lesson. I wanted to preach on the Gospel last week (maybe you wished I did too), but I held off, because this week and last week’s reading need to go together.

    Some of you have probably been in the mall and seen those T-shirt kiosks that are out in the hallway.
