Series: What Are We Waiting For?

Scripture: Psalm 2:1-9 & Matthew 16:24-27

Long before Jesus was born many people were waiting for the Messiah, but Jesus did not fit what most of those people expected the Messiah to be. In this series we will explore three questions: Before Jesus was born what sort of messiah were people waiting for? What sort of messiah did Jesus turn out to be? What should Jesus' followers be doing as we are waiting for Jesus to return?

This sermon was originally preached to New Beginnings UMC on 12/8/24. It is substantially similar to "What Are We Waiting For...a Conqueror? (Rock Springs UMC )" and "What Are We Waiting For...a Conqueror? (Chester UMC)."

Over and over again the Bible encourages us to give thanks to God, but with all that is going on in the world and all that may be going on in their lives, reasonable people may legitimately wonder if there are any good reasons to give thanks. In this sermon which I preached at the Meigs County Community Thanksgiving Service on 11/24/24, I offer what I believe are four good reasons to give thanks to God.

Series: Money, Giving & Thanksgiving

Scripture: 1 Chronicles 29:10-18

Let me be clear: this is NOT a fundraising series, and it's definitely not and an attempt at emotional manipulation or spiritual guilt-tripping to get you to give more money to the church. It is a serious and hard look at some of the things the Bible and Jesus have to say about money and wealth. These things are pervasive especially in 21st century western culture, so it is vitally important for us to hear God's guidance on to use them in a good way.

This kid-friendly sermon was originally preached to New Beginnings UMC on 11/24/24. For a more adult-oriented version check out "A Thankful Heart (Rock Springs UMC)" or "A Thankful Heart (Chester UMC)."
