Obedience
We had an awesome day Sunday at Briarwood. The morning service was so refreshing, as we experienced the presence of God in such a life changing way. The evening service was also wonderful, as people from churches all over our community came together as one voice to worship God. Sunday morning I talked about the [...]
Attitude
We had a wonderful day at Briarwood yesterday. It was our annual “back to school” service. We prayed for all the students and school employees and will continue to do so. The message was “Having A Godly Attitude”. We decide our attitude. Our attitude should be determined by our trust in God and His Word, [...]
Justice And Mercy
At Calvary God’s Justice and Mercy worked together to fulfill God’s perfect redemtive plan. “We have all sinned and come short of the glory of God.” Therefore, justice declares for us death. “For the wages of sin is death.” That is God’s declared justice. And He is completely Just. But Jesus came to earth to [...]
God is Holy
It was so good to be back in the pulpit at Briarwood yesterday. I’ve spoken at a couple of churches the week before, but there’s no place like home. Yesterday I talked about the beauty of holiness. We are to be holy because God is Holy. The word means: moral, righteous and consistent. The great thing about [...]
God Is Love
This Sunday I will be continuing the series regarding the attributes of God. I want to share about His Love. Love is not just something that God has. Love is who God is. God is Love. It’s hard for us to grasp the totality of His Love. Just as in all the other attributes of [...]
God Is Omni
God is omnipotent (all powerful). God is omniscient (all knowing). God is omnipresent (all present). These three “omni” words are more than mere theological descriptions of God. They affect us personally in daily lives. The fact that God is “all powerful” means that He has the power to meet any need that we will ever encounter. Jeremiah [...]
Soldiers In God’s Army
What an awesome service we had Sunday, as we celebrated God and Country. The special music, the video and everything else was truly wonderful. The message reminded us of the truth that we are all a part of God’s army. As soldiers in His army we have an opportunity to influence others in a Godly [...]
Partnership With God
In the Living Bible, Psalm 40 says, “I waited patiently for God to help me; then He listened and heard my cry. He lifted me out of the pit of despair, out from the bog and the mire, and set my feet on a hard, firm path and steadied me as I walked along. He [...]
God Is Infinite
God is infinite. That means He has no bounds and no limits. Furthermore, it means there are no bounds or limits in regards to His character and nature. That’s what Annie Johnson Flint was talking about when she penned the words: “His love has no limits, His grace has no measure, His power has no [...]
God Is Good
We regularly make a responsorial proclaimation at Briarwood that goes like this: “God is good….All the time”. We say it. But do we really believe it. Well, the fact is, God is not only good all the time, but also He desires good for you, all the time. This Sunday, I will be continuing with the sermon [...]
