July 23, 2017 There is an old fable in which three apprentice demons were talking to Satan. They were to finish their apprenticeship by going to earth to tempt and ruin humankind. The first demon said to Satan, “I will tell people there is no God.” Satan replied, “That will not fool many, because […]
MARK 13:28-31
July 16, 2017 So this week, I was in the office, actually preparing the sermon for this morning. Sue Waters, who volunteers in the front office, was telling me her sister, Joanna, who also goes to our church, is going to Jerusalem to teach for an entire year. Sue said, “I told her, that’s […]
MARK 13:24-27
July 9, 2017 Forecasting the weather can be quite challenging. In Colorado, for example, weather can change quickly and drastically. So much so, we heard a TV weather forecaster actually say, “Today, go to your front door and look out. Whatever it’s doing, that’s your forecast.” He was actually quite accurate. I found this […]
MARK 13:14-23
July 2, 2017 Well, I don’t know if you realize it or not, but we have a serious problem. Over the past several decades, end-times prognosticators, date-setters, and prophecy mongers have told us all the signs are in place for Jesus to return at any moment. In addition to wars and rumors of wars, […]
MARK 13:5-13
June 25, 2017 This week while driving home, I turned on a Christian radio station. The speaker – a well-known pastor many of you know – was teaching on one of his favorite topics – prophecy. Seems like every time I hear him, that’s what he’s talking about. Now, don’t misunderstand me, he’s a […]
MARK 13:1-4
June 4, 2017 Jesus is coming back. This is a non-negotiable truth of the Christian faith. But the question is when? Perhaps no other question has sparked more interest or been debated more hotly. While Jesus Himself said no one knows the day or the hour, people have always tried to answer the when […]
MARK 12:41-44
May 28, 2017 Some of you know that years ago, when I served in a small church, I also worked at a bank. Now, I’d never had a finance or banking class – but it didn’t seem that hard. It was all about OPM, other people’s money. People who had money put it in […]
MARK 12:38-40
May 21, 2017 It’s great to be back with you this morning. I want to thank Michael for ably filling the pulpit, the Elders for allowing me to go with Samaritan’s Purse, and Samaritan’s Purse for sending me to Northern Iraq to serve the staff there. I’m deeply encouraged to tell you the SP […]
ACTS 2:40-47 – FOOD
May 14, 2017 My wife and I are coming up on our 5th anniversary at ABF. But in many ways, it feels like we’ve been here for four years. Allow me to explain. We moved to Boone in August of 2012. I started work on a Tuesday and students moved into town that Friday. […]
ACTS 2:40-47 – GENEROSITY
May 7, 2017 One of my friends told me a story this week about a family that lost their Charleston home in a fire. Everyone made it safely out into the front yard, but to the shock of the entire family, the mom ran back in the burning house. She needed to grab one […]
