    Fear God? Seriously? I thought that was "so" Old Testament. But 18 times Proverbs repeats the theme that wise people will "fear the LORD". Can fearing God actually be a good thing?

    OPEN: A policeman was walking his beat. I don’t know if he was writing a ticket or watching a suspicious individual, but he was distracted enough that he barely felt the tug on his coat. He turned, and there stood a little girl. “Can I help you?” the policeman asked her. “My mommy told me that if ...read more

    This sermon is about God's way of wisdom for His people. It includes His roadmap for wisdom (the Bible), His personal guide (the Holy Spirit), and our traveling companions (Wise Counselors).

    The Way of Wisdom With April Fools Day tomorrow, I thought it would be appropriate to speak about the way of wisdom instead of the folly of fools. Life is full of situations where we think we know what to do, only to find out later that we really haven’t clue as to what to do. And so until some ...read more

  • God Is Love, And We Are Not

    Contributed by Randall Long on May 31, 2019
     | 4,547 views

    A lot of us go through life with a watered-down idea of what God's love is. We will look at two incidents from the Gospel of Luke in which someone met that love face to face to help us understand both His love and His holiness.

    There is a saying that appears a few times in the Old Testament. Proverbs 9:10 puts it like this: "The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom". Other verses use slightly different wording, but they all declare the value of the "fear of the LORD". I was troubled by that ...read more

  • Gaining A Heart Of Wisdom Series

    Contributed by Richard Tow on Sep 16, 2021
     | 6,364 views

    Life is short! We must invest our time in that which is of eternal value. All that glitters is not gold. The vanities of this world are of much less value than "gaining a heart of wisdom" (Ps. 90:12). This message leads into Jesus's parable about finding a treasure in Matthew 13:44.

    What do you value most in life? The question is not what you should value most. The question is what do you value most in life? The answer to that question is not found in what we say we value. The answer is found in how we invest our lives—how we invest the precious minutes, hours, and days of ...read more

  • Put God's Fear First

    Contributed by Paul Robinson on May 17, 2023
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,897 views

    What is the "fear of the Lord" all about? How can we display this fear in our lives?

    The word “beginning” means “the first.” If you want godly wisdom, you must put God’s fear first. The fear of the Lord is simply a holy awe of God; it is a reverence for who He is. Without this fear, you cannot attain godly wisdom, for it is the beginning of such wisdom. This verse here tells us ...read more
