The Holiness of God
Mar 1500:20:54Tap to summarizeOne of the oldest and most beloved of our Christian hymns is "Holy, Holy, Holy! Lord God Almighty." The words were written by Reginald Heber, who was born in 1783. When we say that God is holy, what does that mean? This may sound like a dull, uninteresting subject, but today we are going to look at what God's holiness means to us in our everyday lives.

Transcribe →A High Way and a Low
Mar 800:16:05Tap to summarizeThose who have been to Ocean Lakes know that after passing the Security Building, then passing two lakes, you come to a fork in the road. The right fork is called Sunset Trail, while the left road leads to the water park, the ocean, and the Recreational Building, when we have our worship service every Sunday. When we give instructions to guests who are unfamiliar with Ocean Lakes, we try to explain very clearly THE WAY for them to go. The Bible has a lot to say about "The Way." And that's what we are thinking about in the sermon today. The life which Jesus came to give us is a joyous life, and it is truly THE way.

Transcribe →Hilarious Giving
Mar 100:16:41Tap to summarizeWe conclude today the series of messages on the subject of "God's Miraculous Plan of Economy." In this series, we have been reminded that everything belongs to God, and the way we get hold of God's wealth is by giving. The big question is, "How do we give?" Today we are using a term which is not usually associated with giving. Our subject this morning is "Hilarious Giving." Is that right? Absolutely! Let's think together about what that means.

Transcribe →Why Give?
Feb 2200:15:42Tap to summarizeWe continue today looking at "God's Miraculous Plan of Economy." Someone has described one of the great sins of our day to be "The Sin of Sermon Listening." That means some people may hear a sermon, no matter how inspired it may be as a message from God, but then these go their merry way in everyday living without applying God's message to their daily lives. If God has a great, miraculous plan to guide us in an unsteady economy, then the question arises, "Why Give?" That's what we are thinking about today.

Transcribe →The Miracle of Giving
Feb 1500:22:50Tap to summarizeWe continue today looking at "God's Miraculous Plan of Economy." Some may think that this subject should not be addressed in the pulpit, that we should think more of "spiritual" things. But if there is anything in our lives which presents a problem or challenge for us, God has a way to help us, and He is ready, if we will listen to Him and fit into His plans. Today we will look at what is truly a miraculous plan that God offers to help us. It is "The Miracle of Giving."

Transcribe →Making Your Life Count
Jan 2500:21:11Tap to summarizeThe older we get, and hopefully, the more maturity we have, we look at our lives and sometimes ask, "What contribution is my life making in this world which will be lasting after I am gone?" Surely there are things more important than having a large bank account, material things, or words of praise that might be said at my funeral. Today we will be taking the long look at some important ways in which we can make our life count. We'll be looking at several Bible references, and our key Bible verse is Paul's statement in Philippians 4:13.
