Pastor Scott Andrews | January 10, 2021 Watch Listen Read I don’t typically refer to current events in my introductions or illustrations. I prefer to refer to history, long after the facts/truth of events can be investigated and verified. But the last 12 months or so have proven to be a treasure trove of cultural […]
I JOHN 2:12-14
Pastor Scott Andrews | January 3, 2021 Listen Read Some people thrive on tests. They’re the ones who come to class prepared on test day– pen or pencil in hand. Eager to prove themselves once again. The teacher passes out the test face down. These prepared students are on the edges of their seats, holding […]
I JOHN 2:7-11
December 27, 2020 There is a story told of a new pastor to a small, struggling church. He was a bit young and inexperienced, but both he and the church were excited he was there. They had heard him preach, and he was quite good. Sure enough, that first Sunday, with great anticipation, the church […]
Christmas 2020
December 20, 2020 Watch Listen Read If you Google World’s Greatest Mysteries, you’ll find lots of opinions. Everything from, what is dark matter (we know it exists, we just don’t know what it is), to, who was Jack the Ripper who terrorized London, to, who’s buried in the tomb of the unknown soldier? The lists […]
I JOHN 2:3-6
December 13, 2020 I grew up in an independent Baptist family. Not quite hellfire and brimstone, but close. We were faithful to go to church Sunday mornings, Sunday evenings, and Wednesday nights. I regularly participated in Tuesday or Thursday night visitation, when we would either visit people who had visited the church, or randomly knock […]
I JOHN 2:1-2
December 6, 2020 I’ve shared with you before that our American Santa Claus actually came from the Dutch story of Sinter Klaas or Saint Klaas. The story was brought by Dutch settlers to the New World almost four hundred years ago. According to the story, St. Klaas visits on the eve of December 6, today, […]
I JOHN 1:5-10
November 22, 2020 There are many things that divide us as a nation, but one is quite foundational – it is the very definition of truth. Indeed, what is right, and what is wrong. Both major political parties claim to be on the side of right – so who to believe? And the truth is, […]
I JOHN 1:1-4
November 15, 2020 Let me begin by apologizing to those who get a little irritated when Christmas music is played before Thanksgiving. Yes, I know it’s only the middle of November, but Christmas will be here before you know it – in 40 days. And if that statement brings anxiety, maybe we’re not doing it […]
I JOHN INTRO
November 8, 2020 I don’t know that I, personally, have lived through a more troubling time. Now, I’m sure there are some here who can remember such past events as the Great Depression, World War II, the Korean and Vietnam Wars, sandwiched in between the Cuban Missile Crisis, Watergate. I’m just randomly naming events of […]
II PETER 3:14-18
November 1, 2020 I love this time of year – end of October, first of November. Why, you ask – Octoberfest, the changing of the leaves, the fullness of Fall, cooler weather, time-change Sunday, college football? Well, while I love those things, it’s not actually them. This time of the year gives me an annual […]
