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…
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…
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…
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…
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).

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…
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…
Sermon Summary God has uniquely placed you in position with your family, other believers and your community to influence and impact those around you for Christ. Even with over seven billion people on earth, “it’s a small world”! We moved to Holly Springs from the Atlanta area. When my son got home from his first…
Sermon Summary Christ calls us to “be the church” to those around us. We need to remove obstacles that are keeping us from truly loving the people around us. The question we should be asking is not, “What is my purpose?” but rather, “What is God’s purpose for his people?” You see, my perspective of…
Sermon Summary Suffering comes to all of us; it doesn’t discriminate. In the midst of pain we cry out to God, “Why me? What have I done to deserve this?” When you need him most, he seems most remote. Today we are going to examine the problem of pain and the dilemma of maintaining faith…
