    based on 17 ratings
     | 16,629 views

    Christians are often quick to condemn alcoholics and drug addicts for their sin, but the Bible also denounces gluttony as a dangerous sin against our bodies which are God’s temple.

    How To Honor Our Father

    Contributed by Jerry Flury on Jun 19, 2010
    based on 6 ratings
     | 11,687 views

    As believers we are to show honor both to our earthly fathers and to our Eternal Father. The biblical word for honor means "to give great weight to; to hold as valuable." Proverbs 23 tells us how we can show honor to our Father.

    How to Honor Our Father Proverbs 23:22-26 Introduction: The observance of Father's Day provides an opportunity to express a special thank you to our fathers for their unconditional love and affection. Celebrating Father's Day makes fathers feel that they are loved, appreciated, and valued by ...read more

    Chutes And Ladders Series

    Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Sep 21, 2015
     | 4,607 views

    We want to be a disciplined people, and we want to be wary of the destructive evils that we find so easy to embrace. Discipline is like a ladder that slowly leads us upward; foolishness is a chute that can make us drop quickly.

    Chutes and Ladders Proverbs 23:15-35 1.These are actual complaints received from dissatisfied customers by Thomas Cook Vacations (based on a Thomas Cook/ABTA survey): a. "It's lazy of the local shopkeepers in Puerto Vallarta to close in the afternoons. I often needed to buy things during 'siesta' ...read more

    God Honors Mothers

    So often when we read similar texts, the father is named first. But, in this case perhaps the Lord placed the mother first to show her importance to the family unit.

    MOTHER’S DAY EXHORTATION Leviticus 19:3 Ye shall fear every man his mother, and his father, and keep my sabbaths: I am the LORD your God. 1.

    Life — including the Christian life — is best lived in a context of reasonable discipline and solid instruction. Balanced discipline and love are not adversarial, they are joined at the hip.

    Note: I preach 30 to 35 minutes, but only made it through the first point. Joined At the Hip (Proverbs 23:13-17) 1.
