Fifty-four percent of American couples are choosing to live together rather than to be married. We must ask ourselves:  Which “benefits” of cohabitating are you most tempted to believe? How are those “benefits” really a cheap imitation of the real thing? What are some real benefits of being single? Of being married? Is the Spirit placing someone on your mind to have an “awkward” conversation with?  www.benttree.org. 

When asked about parenting, most parents will talk about the sleepless nights, the inability to have alone time, and the temper tantrums. But parenting is much more than surviving the different seasons. Parenting is about making sacrifices. Parenting is about leading by example. Parenting is our mission field. And once we choose to lead our children on a path to God, we can trust they will find their way. Join us this week as we learn about the important mission of raising children.

John the Apostle gives us a glimpse of God's Throne Room in Heaven and the throng around the throne. Who are the beasts and the elders? What can we learn from this seldom-understood apocalyptic vision in Revelation? This powerful sermon will take you there and give you a window into God's comprehensive plan to redeem Man and His creation.  www.dentonbible.org. Used by permission.

The reality gap is this. Our God is an utterly amazing, incredible God. So we think - What does a God-believer look like? Every one of us comes up with an iconic image of what a Christian should be. The gap is - what do we do when we see the gap between out image of what a Christian should be, and our own reality? Preached at Casas Church. Used by permission.

God's name, YAHWEH, is spoken without the vowels. In fact, when a Jew spoke the Hebrew words, it was a whisper-a breath. God gave us our first breath and we will breathe His name as our last breath. Even a child like Samuel heard Him speak. God gave him a prophetic voice, but first He gave Samuel a prophetic ear.  Preached at National Community Church. Used by permission.

When is the rapture of the church? When is Armageddon? Does the Millennial Reign of Christ really happen? Why the urgency of sharing the Gospel? Because Jesus is coming back! Preached at Fellowship Church, Grapevine Texas.

The greatest human need is to be loved...we know that…but for a lot of us…we don’t actually make the time to be vulnerable enough to allow ourselves to be loved or to love without reservation.  You are loved by God…you are adored by God…receive that…believe that so that you might be able to give that!   We’ve got to stop pretending like we don’t need each other…we do!  Preached at Chase Oaks Church.

The good news about a single Savior who provides abundant life for all who die with him… Jesus didn’t view his celibacy as a no…no to joy, no to sex, no to intimacy…but rather he viewed it as a life-giving yes…yes to relationships, yes to friends, yes to serving others, and yes to enjoying life to the fullest.” Singles, you have not been forgotten. You have not been punished. You have been given a gift from God to live out of your yes. Preached at the Village Church. Used by permission.
