Our text this morning makes us wonder if the writer is in his right mind. We find a man who is not deluded in his thoughts, but he speaks a word of wisdom about something he has discovered amid his misery. He has a revelation of understanding about something that changes everything. He realizes a grit and determination about himself that gives him optimism and hope. In the first part, he catalogs...

Evening Service In the final hours of the siege on the Alamo, Santa Anna sent a letter to the men inside saying that all who surrendered would be spared. Col. Travis read the letter to his men and asked who would stay to defend the Alamo. All but one of the men committed to stand with Col. Travis. Our world today has little regard for commitment. Contracts have escape clauses. People enter into ma...

Our church and our nation are emerging from a long season of unrest. The pandemic, hurricanes, civil unrest, and winter storms have taken a toll on all of our nation. If we are not careful, the struggles of life can silence our song. God wants us to enjoy His presence. Bro. Hughes declares that Summer 2021 will be a Summer of Psalms. As we kick this off, we ask God for a new song for a new season....

Tomorrow is Memorial Day in America. For some, it is the end of school and the beginning of Summer. Memorial Day began as decoration day in the years following the Civil War as a way to remember those who lost their lives in that terrible conflict. Over time, the day also became a way to remember soldiers, sailors, and airmen who sacrificed their lives in service to their country. It became an off...

We are called to be different from the world. The process of being set apart from the world is called sanctification. The old testament story of Abraham shows a beautiful example of this set apart. God called Abraham to separate himself from his people. In doing this, Abraham becomes a living example of sanctification. He obeyed God and followed the Lord away from his people and into a beautiful b...

The Samaritan woman came to draw water just as she had done many times. That day, Jesus offers her living water that would quench her thirst forever. Too often, we are content to get just enough to get us by when God wants to bless us with a limitless supply.

When we hear the phrase “The Temple of God'', we often think about a church. It invokes visions of perhaps an ancient structure. But the temple of God is not necessarily a building. In biblical times, David was passionate about building a temple for God. He did not want this for himself or to increase his legacy. He wanted to build it for God. David spent years preparing and storing up the best ma...

There is nothing more challenging than waiting. Patience is not something that any of us possess in tremendous amounts. Often our life is spent waiting upon the Lord to do what he said He would do. That waiting is often the most frustrating part of life. Usually, in that waiting period, God is silent. We do not often talk about this part of faith. We marvel when someone steps out in faith. We rejo...

We understand that faith is the currency of heaven. Faith is the medium through which we access all the blessings and favor of God. But we often find our faith lacking. In Matthew, the disciples questioned their faith and asked Jesus to increase their faith. Jesus responded with a story about a mustard seed. The point of the lesson was not the seed, but that no matter how small and inadequate our...

he old saying goes that with great authority comes great responsibility. That is not simply an old saying; it is biblical in its roots. We see examples all through the bible of people who had great authority. Joseph, Moses, David, and the list goes on. Many of these examples exercised that authority with humbleness and an eye toward God; sadly, some did not. Jesus provided an example of how to exe...

Last week’s lesson in the elements series was on stewardship. Hand in hand with stewardship is faithfulness. The bible calls us to be faithful stewards of what God has entrusted us with. Paul encourages us not to grow weary in doing well. It is clear that we are to remain faithful in our service to the Lord.
