Ruth & the Kinsman Redeemer – Part 3 of 4: Master-Class in Real Love

Sermon Summary This morning, Pastor Dan presented Part 3 of a four-part series on the Old Testament book of Ruth. Last week, we learned that Ruth and her mother-in-law Naomi returned to Naomi’s homeland, Bethlehem, at the exact time of the wheat harvest. There, the two poor widows managed to survive by Ruth’s gleaning from…

Ruth & the Kinsman Redeemer – Part 2 of 4: The Industrious Hand and the Invisible Hand

Sermon Summary Last week, Pastor Dan introduced us to the Old Testament book of Ruth. We were introduced to an Israelite named Elimelech, his wife Naomi, and their two sons, Mahlon and Kilion. They lived during a dark, evil period in Israel’s history called “the time of the judges.” There was a famine in Israel,…

Ruth & the Kinsman Redeemer – Part 1 of 4: Helpless & Hopeless…(or so it seems)

Sermon Summary This week, Pastor Dan began a four-week series on the book of Ruth, which takes place during the time of the judges in Israel. We learned during the series of messages Pastor Doug finished last week that the time of the judges was filled with immorality; however, today’s message demonstrates that not everyone…

The Book of Judges, Failure Through Compromise – Part 7 of 7: Hitting Rock Bottom!

Sermon Summary Today, Pastor Doug concluded our study of the Old Testament book of Judges. He reminded us that this is not an inspirational book, but rather a very instructive book, as it records one of the darkest periods in Israel’s history. As we discussed last week, during the period of the judges, “there was…

The Book of Judges, Failure Through Compromise – Part 6 of 7: Preacher for Hire

Sermon Summary Today, Pastor Doug spoke about the markers of a deteriorating society, comparing the state of current American society with that of Israel in the book of Judges. The similarities are unmistakable, and God’s truth for the ancient Israelites is the same for us today in modern-day America. Pastor Doug outlined three indicators that…

The Book of Judges, Failure Through Compromise – Part 5 of 7: The Samson Sin-drome

Sermon Summary Four weeks ago Pastor Doug began a series on the Book of Judges. The period called “the time of the Judges” lasted about 350 years, and it was the darkest period in Israel’s history. It was a time of incredible religious and moral decay. The Jews claimed to love God, but they didn’t…

The Book of Judges, Failure Through Compromise – Part 4 of 7: Gideon: An Unlikely Hero

Sermon Summary What kind of a person does God use to accomplish his eternal purposes in this world? Jacob, the father of the Israelite nation, was a liar. Joseph, who saved Israel from starvation, was a slave. Moses, who led Israel out of slavery, was a fugitive, a shepherd, and a murderer. God uses ordinary…

The Book of Judges, Failure Through Compromise – Part 3 of 7: Life In God’s Classroom

Sermon Summary God has always tested the faith and commitment of his people. For example, he tested Adam and Eve’s obedience to his one command. As you know, they failed miserably (Genesis 3:6). God tested Abraham when he asked him to offer his only son Isaac as a sacrifice. Abraham passed his test (Genesis 22:12).…

The Book of Judges, Failure Through Compromise – How to Impact Your Culture – Part 2 of 7

Sermon Summary There are churches on every corner—why are we having so little impact in our culture? Over the past fifty years America has experienced a rapid, moral and spiritual decline. It has affected all of us. Consider the Clinton-Lewinski fiasco. The number of Americans who thought adultery was no big deal, as long as…

The Book of Judges, Failure Through Compromise – Part 1 of 7 – Godliness to Godlessness in One Generation

Sermon Summary It has long been noted that no country in the west, resembling the United States, is mentioned in end time prophecy. Russia, China, Iran and some ten European nations are there, but not us. How can that be? Perhaps it is because as history reaches its God-appointed conclusion, the U.S. will either have…
