Men Prepare Sermons; God Prepares Men

2nd Timothy 2:15

"The proper place for a ship to be is in the water, but if the water gets into the ship, the ship will sink. The proper place for the church is in the world,

BUT IF THE 'WORLD' GETS INTO THE CHURCH,

THE CHURCH WILL GO DOWN IN DISGRACE!"

Thank you for taking the time to view our blog;we look forward to reading your comments. DVDs of our services are available upon request. We covet your prayers and friendship. In His Service and For His Glory, Pastor Bill & Kathy ...
"Now fear the Lord and serve Him with all faithfulness...But if serving the LORD seems undesirable to you, then choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve...But as for me and my household, we will serve the LORD."-Joshua 24:14-15

Is God Calling You to be a Pastor?

The right kind of education is essential to the man who has answered God's call. No army dare send a soldier into battle without proper training. The results would be devastating, not only for the warrior, but for the war.

IS THERE A BIBLICAL PRESCRIPTION TO MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN? YES! ONE AND ONLY ONE. IT'S FOUND IN 2nd CHRONICLES 7:14; "IF MY PEOPLE WHO ARE CALLED BY MY NAME WILL HUMBLE THEMSELVES, AND PRAY AND SEEK MY FACE, AND TURN FROM THEIR WICKED WAYS, THEN I WILL HEAR FROM HEAVEN, AND WILL FORGIVE THEIR SINS AND HEAL THEIR LAND." 

*********************************************


COMMENT FROM AN INTERNET CONTRIBUTOR: "HEY PASTOR BILL, YOU SOUND LIKE YOU HAVE AN AGENDA WHEN YOU PREACH!"  

YOU BET I DO!  (BUT ONLY ONE!) To teach the Truth! To teach that all roads do not lead to Heaven. Only the narrow road, that leads to repentance! Through Obedience to following Jesus Christ as Lord. All other roads lead to hell and destruction (John 8:32).
****************************************************************

WHY REACH OUT AND MINISTER TO MEN?

  • When a mother is reached for Christ, 17% of her family will follow.
  • When a father is reached for Christ, 93% of his family will follow.  (Per the Heritage Foundation)
  • THE LORD S CALLING FAITHFUL MEN TO LEAD THEIR FAMILIES!

IT'S A FAMILY TRADITION



DO YOU HUNGER AND THIRST?

    Jeremiah 29:13 “You will seek Me (God) and find Me when you seek Me with all your heart.”

    It may not be easy to give up your old sinful ways, and turn in faith to Jesus Christ; but it is the only way to  SALVATION,  AND IT IS WORTH IT! 

     CALL UPON (THE FULLNESS OF) THE NAME OF JESUS AND YOU WILL BE SAVED!

    1. Timothy and Jeannette Missionaries Serving in Uganda, AfricaSeptember 10, 2017 at 4:28 PM

      THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH FOR PRAYING!!! Tim's brother Mike, is doing remarkably well after his liver transplant! He is actually up and walking around with assistance. The risk of infection is still there and then they have to get him on the right dose of anti-rejection drugs. All of this has to be worked around his diabetes. We are also so thankful for technology!! None of the wonderful means of communication that we have today were available when we first came to the mission field. Tim was able to talk with his brother on Monday before the surgery and then immediately after he came out -- of course he doesn't remember that--then several times again since. Mike has to stay near the hospital for about a month after he is released so they can monitor his meds and condition. That is when he will need Tim's assistance to get back and forth to the hospital so that Joan can have a break and also resume work. Don't know all the details yet.

Often, we can't get to a regular church, so we use your message as we join in out make shift chapel here on the ranch. I will set up our internet computer, and via a projector, we all join in as a congregation, Thank you Pastor.

    4. It was so meaningful to me to hear you talk about your loved one who had cancer and the Lord in His Wisdom took her to Heaven, and did not save her life, but for her He did a better thing.
