Devotion – “Method of Daily Prayer Part III” – 10/13/2025

We continue our series of excerpts from “Matthew Henry on a Practical Method of Daily Prayer.”1 These will be without the usual comments and study references.

Sunday Sermon Series- “Mission Field” – 10/12/2025

COMMENTS When most people think of “Mission Field (s),” the likely first thought is someone struggling to share the Gospel in a faraway third-world country. While this can be true, it is also true that, for most of us, our ministry, our mission field is right outside the door of our church and home. When … More Sunday Sermon Series- “Mission Field” – 10/12/2025

Devotional – “The Church’s Great Need” – 10/11/2025

The title of today’s devotional at first had me thinking only one? Surely churches have many needs, but after reading it I realized that applied to the main mandate of “the Church” being “make disciples of all nations” given by Christ to his disciples following his death and resurrection (Matt. 28:16–20; Mark 16:15–18; Luke 24:46–49; John 20:21–23; Acts 1:8), … More Devotional – “The Church’s Great Need” – 10/11/2025

Devotional/Study – “Carnal Christians” – 10/06/2025

If you are anything like me, being called a “Carnal Christian” is akin to being called cursed at. I believed that the two terms were completely incompatible. How could a “Christian”, someone with the indwelling Holy Spirit, live a carnal life? It just did not compute. You can go across America on any given Sunday … More Devotional/Study – “Carnal Christians” – 10/06/2025

Devotion/Study – “Usefulness of God’s Law” – 09/30/2025
