The Joyful Christian Worker

We are born again to go out and serve. Also, to have a zeal and excitement when we serve. Peter had a lot of zeal for going out and serving the Lord. We are valuable to God but sometimes before we are valuable we have to be humbled first. This happened with Peter. Peter overcame that with God’s leading and even led him to be involved in some miracles such as Tabitha. Tabitha was a joyful servant and did what she could for the Lord but became sick and died, but when Peter came in the room. Once h...

A Christian Basket Case

Saul has had a great transformation in his life. God changed him and he made a complete turn around from what he used to be. When Saul (Paul) got saved he meant business and did not mind standing out in front of others for Christ. As Christians to the world we look peculiar but to God we look normal. We are to still be in the world but not of it. We are to give the gospel to those that are lost but not to look or be like the world. Paul found the key, which is Jesus Christ, and he wanted to give...

Was Blind But Now I See

Have you ever been blinded to something but then something clicked and then you could see? It’s almost like what happened to Saul. God blinded Saul, which hanged his life around, but the only way for Saul to see again was by Ananias. God had a plan for Saul and Ananias got to play a semi-big role in his life. Ananias was skeptical at first and even argued with God about going to Saul, but God basically told Ananias that everything would work out. God had many plans for Saul, he was a chosen vess...

When God Gets Your Attention

The conversion of Saul is a good example to us for our lives. Saul was a Jew that wanted Christians threatened, slaughtered, and killed. Whatever Saul did he did it with his whole heart, but what he was doing was very wrong. God had to get in the way of Saul to help him see the light. God got in his way and blinded Saul. Once Saul was blinded and heard God speaking to him, he understood God and got saved. God did many things through the life of Saul and he can do many things through us as well. ...

A Seeker Finds God

Before we came to Christ we were lost and at some point we became a seeker. We wanted to seek the truth and find God. In Acts 8:34-40, the Ethiopian man was seeking and he wanted to know about Jesus. Philip told him about Jesus and he got saved. Once he was saved he asked Philip about baptism because he wanted to follow after Jesus in scriptural baptism. Baptism is a command but does not save you. There are people out in this world today who are seeking Christ, like the Ethiopian man. If they co...

Can I Get a Witness?

We need to draw nigh to God. In Acts 8:30-31, Philip asks the Ethiopian if he understood what he read. The Ethiopian said “How can I, except some man should guide me?” The Ethiopian desired for Philip to be a shepherd to him and teach him the scriptures. As Philip gave the gospel to the Ethiopian we should be doing that with those around us. We need to take the time and be a witness of Christ to others. If we are saved we are to be a light for Christ. Please join Pastor Scheving as he preaches o...

Getting Your Salvation Right

Standing Alone for Jesus

Back in Bible times Christians were actually persecuted for the sake of the gospel. We as Christians don’t have to really worry about that right now, but as we get closer to the return of Christ the more likely that possibility will become. So listen to this message from Pastor Tony Scheving “Standing Alone for Christ”

Growing Pains

As a church grows growing pains or problems can occur, but a healthy organization means growth. It is hard to please everyone because everyone is different. When things do not go a person's way some people start to murmur about the problem. But murmuring is often against God and instead of that we should realize that maybe the change or decision that was made is better than the original way of what we used to do. In everything we are to bring God glory. Please join Pastor Scheving as he preaches...

The Privilege of Suffering For Christ

Remembering to be Thankful

As humans our tendency is to think about ourselves and get things that we want. We need to realize that it is not about us but about God and all the things that he has given us and done for us. We need to remind ourselves to be thankful for everything that we have and to be content with what we have. God loads us with many benefits in life and therefore we really do not have any reason to complain about things in our life. God deserves thank you from us and we need to acknowledge His goodness to...

Obeying Man or God?

As Christians are we to obey man or God? We should definitely obey God before man. In Acts 5:17-29 it explains how all twelve apostles were in prison but God let them all out. Once the apostles were released they went back to the temple to preach to the others just as God wanted them to do. The officers of the temple had to be careful when they would take them away because they knew if they took the apostles harshly it would cause a riot. The apostles obeyed God and as they obeyed Him we to are ...

A Movement That Couldn't Be Stopped

The church is here to reach the world with the gospel. As a saved person we should all be going out and doing the Great Commission. We should not take advantage of what we should be doing. Please join Pastor Scheving as he preaches on “A movement that Couldn’t Be Stopped.”
