Sermon from 09 October 2022

Sermon Title: “2nd Question/What Story Will You Tell?”
Pastor: Doug Miller
Scriptures: Gen. 39:1-12
Synopsis: Almost all of us love a good story. Yet what is not apparent to many of us is our lives are a story we are continuing to write each day, with the passing of every day and every season that story builds chapter by chapter. When we look back, often times there are some stories we love to retell and others not so much. Many times, the stories we love to tell are the stories in which we made good decisions. Join us while we continue to look at the questions which help us make decisions about which we want to tell others.

Sermon Title: “Your Private Decisions Can Have Very Public Outcomes”
Pastor: Doug Miller
Scriptures: Proverbs 27:12
Synopsis: The prudent take refuge when they see danger but the foolish run ahead. The challenge for each of us before we make decisions is to slow down, carefully consider our consequences and make our decision. Rushing decisions can have consequences for us now and consequences for others both now and later. Join us a we begin a brand new series designed to help us make wise decisions for ourselves and others both in the present and the future.

Sermon from 04 September 2022

Sermon Title: “A Simple Prayer”
Pastor: Doug Miller
Scriptures: Matthew 5:8, 6:5-15
Synopsis: We want to be open-minded, but we naturally resist things we can’t control or don’t understand. So how can we learn to be open to changing our ideals and beliefs? Especially if our existing thoughts may cause us to think wrongly about something? Change is never simple and never easy. But it begins with a simple prayer and asking God to change our perspective. It is amazing what God can do as He works to change hearts and people.

Sermon from 14 August 2022

Sermon Title: “If Then Why?”
Pastor: Doug Miller
Scriptures: Matthew 6:5-15, Proverbs 30:8–9
Synopsis: If God already knows my needs, why pray? Because the purpose of prayer is to surrender your will, not impose it. Compared to most of the world, many of us run the risk of losing an active sense of dependence on God because we have so much. How can our prayers help combat that?
