It's the Least I Could Do

November 14, 2008 22:09 - 9.83 MB

But what's the most you could do? It's the least that I can do.  It's a saying we use when we've done something for someone after they've done something pretty nice for us. But have you ever really thought about what it means? It's the least that you can do? Is our least good enough? Is it ever good enough? Do I really want to do the least I can do in payment to those who gave all that

Trick or Treat

November 14, 2008 22:08 - 17.4 MB

What does the Halloween of old have to do with today? This is a time of year that many Christian's hope goes by quickly. There are those who are radically opposed to the holiday of Halloween and then there are those who still take part in it. It has become something that people don't want to talk about or bring up for fear that someone is either going to judge them over it or they will be

Meh Part Two

November 14, 2008 22:07 - 24.4 MB

Meh,and then wretched, miserable, poor, blind and naked. Revelation 3:15 NLT I know all the things you do - that you are neither hot nor cold. I wish you were either one or the other! But since you are like lukewarm water I will spit you out of my mouth! You say I am rich; I have everything I want. I don't need a thing. And you don't even realize that you wretched, miserable, poor, blind and

Meh

November 06, 2008 22:06 - 18.7 MB

A little word that can have big consequences in your faith. Meh!..Its definition is lack of enthusiasm, lethargy, mediocrity, apathy, blah, whatever, indifference… basically the verbal equivalent of a shrug of the shoulders. We hear it all the time, and we see it all the time; written down in emails and on MySpace and face book. People use it when they don't know what to say and they use it when

Costumes and Masks

October 17, 2008 21:05 - 20.6 MB

Things we put on that make us fake. Last week we talked about those things that go bump in the night; those things that scare us and make us afraid; our fears. I went over with you the three types of responses our bodies can have when we experience that fear. Our physiological response is the way that our actual bodies respond when we experience fear. When our hearts pound, our breathing becomes

Things That Go Bump in the Night

October 10, 2008 21:04 - 22.9 MB

What fears are holding you back?When I was a teenager I used to go up to Troy Grove at night and hang out with friends. Unfortunately, what I did a lot of the time was stay out t too late and then I would have to walk home in the dark. Needless to say I never really walked – I ran! I would walk up until the very last street light and then I would take off full speed ahead and not stop or hardly

The Horror of Change

September 25, 2008 21:03 - 11.8 MB

Don't fear change! Or we may just be insane. Finishing up .. Wars – I found it appropriate to speak to you about ….CHANGE. We hear the word all the time…from politicians, about climate issues, from changing our ways of thinking; over time we've heard many quotes about change. Here's a few: The more things change the more they remain the same. Jean-Baptiste Alphonse Karr Nothing endures but change

Tootin

September 18, 2008 21:01 - 12.3 MB

Don't toot your own horn! Pride drowns out the sounds of God. One thing that I've learned over the years is that when a person says "I don't mean to toot my own horn or anything"…. is that they usually do. There are a lot of people who we deal with on a daily basis who just love to tell us how great they are; yet with somewhat false humility. I'm sure you've heard of the term. Toot your own horn

GIGO — Part 2

September 12, 2008 21:00 - 15.4 MB

GIGO - garbage in = garbage out! More things to think about. Last week I spoke to you about how scientists believe that our thoughts make grooves into our brains over time and after we've practiced a skill, learned something new, or studied a topic, a new groove is actually carved into our brain tissue. I then spoke to you about how our bad thoughts also over time can also create grooves into our

GIGO

August 28, 2008 20:57 - 23.3 MB

GIGO! Garbage in, garbage out. The garbage you let in will eventually come out. When we put on Hose-A-Palooza this year….we brought in some huge semi trucks to bring in the water for the days' events. Unfortunately, the couple of days before Hose-A-Palooza we pretty much had a monsoon blow through the Troy Grove/Mendota area bringing us buckets of rain; and because of it the ground was softened

Go All Out!

August 21, 2008 20:55 - 25.8 MB

Go all out! Don't be a copout, holdout, or dropout in your faith. Michael Phelps went to Beijing China for the 08 Olympics and won 8 gold medals there… When someone wins something like that we need to realize that there is much more that has gone on than just in that moment in time.  It's also about the past and all the hours and hard work that have gotten them to that point that we are

Brokenness

August 14, 2008 20:54 - 20 MB

Brokenness—Don't say no to regrets; Say yes to them! Sorrow and remorse are the scars of brokenness upon our hearts proving that we belong to Jesus; in the same way that His own broken body proved His identity as our coming Messiah. There is a saying in our society; NO REGRETS. It's the thought that we can just throw all of our mistakes and hurts into a pile and just walk away from them and never

Good Dirt

August 07, 2008 20:53 - 25 MB

Hard dirt, rocky dirt, thorny dirt, and good dirt, how receptive are you to God's Word? Tonight we are going to spend some time in looking at Matthew 13:1-23; where Jesus tells his disciples about the parable of the sower, i.e.…the farmer or the planter – whichever makes it easier for you to understand. This is the story that Jesus used to explain what happens after we've shared the word of God
