Genesis: A Faithful Legacy
The legacy we leave to others may not be money, land, or material possessions. The most important thing we can leave behind is a godly spiritual legacy.
View SermonAcceptable Worship
In Genesis 4 we see sibling rivalry at its worst. But the heart of the matter is what is acceptable worship. One brother gave God what was convenient, while the other gave God his best. Cain compared himself to his brother, became angry, bitter, and did the unthinkable. His heart was not right.
View SermonGenesis – The Big Lie
We are going to look at the devil’s Big Lie in Genesis chapter three. Just as he tempted Adam and Eve to disobey God, we are tempted in the same way: doubting God’s Word and doubting God’s goodness. Doubting and disobeying God bring pain and death. Trusting and obeying God bring joy and life. These principles are still just as true today.
View SermonGenesis: Creation II
The universe and our perfectly lighted, heated, and balanced home, earth, were all prepared for us to care for and enjoy all that He created. God provided all that we need and He is all we need. Psalm. 107:9 says, “He satisfies the longing soul, and the hungry soul He fills with good things.”
View SermonA Man of Integrity
In honor of Father’s Day this morning, I will be speaking about being a Man of Integrity. Today let’s honor fathers for all that they do well and for trying, and let’s show grace and forgiveness for the times they failed.
View SermonGenesis: Creation Part I
Ex nihilo is Latin for “from nothing.” The term creatio ex nihilo refers to God creating everything from nothing. In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth (Genesis 1:1). Prior to that moment, there was nothing. God didn’t make the universe from preexisting building blocks. He started from scratch.
These first two verses are an introduction to the story of creation. Who is God? He is Elohim, the Creator. There is an understood connection to the God, the nation of Israel already knew as their Redeemer and Protector.
