In this 11/17/24 message, Michael Gowens considers Philippians 4:6-8, focusing on the phrase "with thanksgiving." It is appropriate to make requests of God, but such petitionary prayer should always be framed in thankfulness of the Lord's manifold mercies.
What was the secret of Elijah's courage and holy boldness? In this 11/3/24 sermon, Elder Gowens traces the answer to that question to the prophet's conviction that Jehovah is the true and living God. The scripture text for message #2 in this series is 1 Kings 17:1.
On Sunday Oct 27, 2024, Pastor Gowens introduced a new, biographical study of the Old Testament prophet Elijah. This first message in the series considers 1 Kings 17:1-6 and focuses on the historical backdrop of the times in which Elijah lived and ministered.
The 10/20/24 sermon by Mike Gowens is the 9th and final segment in the "Kingdom Parables" series. In this message, Gowens considers Mt 25:14-30 and emphasizes that kingdom living involves investing the resources God has entrusted to individual believers for the good of His kingdom.
This sermon by Elder Mike Gowens was delivered October 13, 2024. The text is Mt 15:30. Elder Gowens explores several narratives from the Gospels in which people in various circumstances either sat, knelt, fell or bowed at Jesus' feet. Down at the feet of Jesus is the place for every true believer.
Pastor Gowens' sermon from October 6, 2024 is message #8 in the Kingdom Parables series. In this message he focuses on the Parable of the Ten Virgins in Matthew 25:1-13. The lesson taught in this parable is, namely, kingdom living means living in anticipation of the Redeemer's return. Brother Gowens insists that eschatology matters right now.
Pastor Gowens' 9/29/24 sermon looks at the text in Psalm 94:19: "In the multitude of my thoughts within me, thy comforts delight my soul." In the frenetic pace and incessant responsibilities of life in the modern world, it is easy to feel overwhelmed. The sheer busyness of life can keep the mind in a whirl. The Psalmist, however, learned where to find peace and comfort to calm his racing thoughts. Here's real help for anxious minds.
In message #7 of the Kingdom Parables series, Michael Gowens considers Matthew 22:1-14. This parable teaches that participation in the King's banquet presupposes submission to the King's protocols. One may not partake of the blessings of the kingdom on his/her own terms. This message was preached on 9/22/24.
In this message from 9/15/24, Mike Gowens considers Psalm 149:5-6 and the command to sing while we fight. Gowens develops each metaphor, beginning with the call to fight the good fight of faith, and proceeding to the importance of maintaining a joyful song, even in the midst of the fray.
In this message from 9/8/24, Michael Gowens continues the "Kingdom Parables" series with message six. The text is Matthew 20:1-16. This parable teaches that in the kingdom of God, Christ is sovereign in dispensing blessings to His servants. There is no algorithm involved in kingdom living. Whatever compensation we receive in following Christ, however, will far exceed any investment we make. It would be accurate, in fact, to call this passage "the parable of the Generous Landowner."
