Why are Christians so bored with God? I believe it's because they have failed to hear what He has said to them. They fail because they are distracted by sin, unaware of righteousness and forget about the judgment that awaits everyone. That is the work fo the Holy Spirit when He delivers God's word. The word of God changes everything. That's the law before time.
Our purpose is to give God glory. Sin has damaged our glorified condition. God so loved us that He gave His Son to restore that pre-fallen glory. His salvation is more than a trip to heaven. It is His Kingdom come upon this earth. (Read Romans 8:29-30)

You Gotta' Have Faith (Part 2)
Years ago an evangelist told me, "You got to believe it is so when it isn't so, so it will be so because with God it is already so." I asked how do you know that it is already so with God.
He said, "You need a word from God."
"How do you get a word from God?" I asked.
His eyes twinkled as he said, "Now, that's the hard part."
This is the second part of my message delivered on a Wednesday night. It attempts to answer the question: How do I get a word from God?

You Gotta' Have Faith
Too many Christians think that faith is something that they must produce on their own. They do not realize that faith is a gift from God. They live lives of defeat and frustration when they try to produce something that only God can give them.
So, how do they get this faith? This is the topic of this sermon.

O Lord, Why Are You So Far Away?
God has great plans for us. So, why is it that those great plans and God Himself seems to be so far away? Could it be that you are doing something that is keeping you from what God would like to give you? This message explores areas in your life that separate you from God and His plans.

The Meaning of the Cross
Mankind was created in God's image. He was created in peace with God and longs to restore that peace. His efforts to make peace with God have come from creating religion rather than re-establishing the relationship. So, God did for man what he couldn't do for himself.
The relationship created by the work of the cross gave man victory, peace, forgiveness, purpose and life. It seems too good to be true but how could anyone not listen if it could be true? This is the meaning of the cross.
