Thomaston Baptist ChurchMarch 22, 2015 Ephesians 2:1-10 Click to view the bulletin: 22Mar2015 As I look around this morning, most of you look pretty good. You might be a little bit “weekend worn,” but for the most part, you don’t look bad at all. Some of you look just grand. None of you, certainly, look even the least […]
March 8, 2015 1 Corinthians 1:18-25 It’s what we’re up against. It’s what the church has always been up against, from day one, more than two thousand years ago. What we do as Christians and what we say as Christians is nothing more than a cart-load of foolishness to those who do not believe. We […]
March 1, 2015 Mark 8:31-38 We spent a few moments with Peter last week. Peter’s not a bad guy at all. He’s just human. And being human is sometimes the whole trouble with us. We aren’t God, never have been, but sometimes we sure like to play God. Years ago, some company had some sort […]
February 15, 2015 John 1:43-51 I suspect that some of us here this morning probably have a favorite Bible character. There’s probably some man or some woman in the Bible with whom we have a special affinity. Perhaps its someone whom we admire and aspire to be like ourselves. Perhaps its someone in the Scriptures […]
February 8, 2015 Isaiah 40:21-31 I’ve never been much impressed with grasshoppers. I’m pretty much sure that grasshoppers are relatives of locusts, and locusts are an instrument of God’s judgment. Locusts eat crops, locusts destroy fields of food, and locusts devastate the economy. Locusts are never a welcome sight to anyone except perhaps John the […]
February 1, 2015 Mark 1:21-28 There is a place in all of our lives where we must decide for ourselves who Jesus is, and who he will be for us. That moment of decision can only be described in terms of a crisis. Now most of us, I know, would just as soon avoid a […]
January 25, 2015 1Corinthians 7:25-31 I love the Scriptures. I really do. That should be perfectly evident every time I step into this pulpit. There should be no question about it. But sometimes, I must admit, that I don’t like them very much. And usually, when I don’t like them, its because I don’t understand […]
January 18, 2015 1Samuel 3:1-20 The word of the Lord was rare in those days; visions were not widespread. That’s quite a statement. The word of the Lord was rare in those days; visions were not widespread. The expectation, of course, of the writer of First Samuel is that that should not have been the […]
January 11, 2015 Matthew 2:7-18 My guess is that most of us like the wise men quite well. There’s something about these mysterious guys who see a star, intuit that it means that a new king has been born to the Jews, and then, amazingly, strike out on a journey to Jerusalem to visit with […]
