Church Involvement

The Bible uses the strongest and most intimate language when describing the church. In one place the Bible calls the church, “The Bride of Christ” (Revelation 19:7), in another place, “The Body of Christ” (1 Corinthians 12:27) and Jesus Himself called it His, “Mother, Brothers and Sisters” (Matthew 12:50). The only thing that Jesus personally said He…

Christian Fellowship

A wise man once said, “A new friend is like new wine, when it has aged you will drink it with pleasure.” The Bible promotes good friendship and teaches us how to fellowship with each other and enjoy life (Acts 2:46). Sadly, sometimes even good friendships end badly because of sin usually in the form…

Financial Stewardship

I want to start today’s sermon by addressing the elephant in the room and that is the terrible reputation churches and pastors have in our culture in regards to money.

Spiritual Meditation

Since the time of creation God’s people have been practicing scripture memorization and spiritual meditation. It is only in our modern era that many disciples have forgotten the importance of being still before God and abiding in His Words. As a result, many false religions and new age techniques have come in and stolen the attention away…

Public Evangelism

Research shows that more than half of Jesus’ earthly ministry was spent preaching and teaching in public. Today’s disciple should both heed Jesus’ command to go into the “roads and country lanes” (Luke 14:23) and follow His clear example!

Praying & Worshipping

Praying and worshipping are the foundational activities in the Christian’s life that bring God’s presence and power. Sadly, most Christians don’t know how to properly pray or worship; nor do most Christians make time to do so on a regular basis. Some Christians have even forgotten or have never been taught that they are the temple…

Soul Journaling

Like with the spiritual discipline of Scripture memorization, soul journaling, has been the foundation of much of the Bible. In other words, if no one memorized the Word of God during the times of oral tradition or recorded their interactions with God there would be no Bible. In regards to journaling, much of the book…

Scripture Memorization

Everyone battles negative thoughts; “I’m ugly, I’ll never get a good job, I’m a terrible person, I’m just a sinner, I can never change, etc.” However, what separates people who please God from those who don’t is determined by their trust in God’s Word (Hebrews 11:6). As modern psychology shows that best way to combat…
