Depression – Who, What and How – Sermon Sunday, July 14

NEW Sermon Series ~ Down in the Dumps

Sermon on Sunday, July 14:

Depression – Who, What and How

I Kings 19

Depression is the epidemic that many are struggling with but few are talking about. According to the latest reports, 1 out of every 3 Americans are dealing with depression. What are the effects? How do I deal with them? Let’s see what Elijah learned about depression and what God can do about it.

The Lord said, “Go out and stand on the mountain in the presence of the Lord, for the Lord is about to pass by.” Then a great and powerful wind tore the mountains apart and shattered the rocks before the Lord, but the Lord was not in the wind. After the wind there was an earthquake, but the Lord was not in the earthquake. After the earthquake came a fire, but the Lord was not in the fire. And after the fire came a gentle whisper.” (1 Kings 19:11-12)

At 8:15, 9:30 and 11:00 AM at Pender United Methodist Church

Sunday’s Sermon, July 7, 2013

Sunday, July 7 – Judging Others/Judging Ourselves –Romans 14:1-19

What does it mean to judge someone? Is it necessary? Is it loving?

Do we take stock in our own lives before we look at others or is it vice versa?

Let’s explore if the word judging should be in our vocabulary and if so, how do we live it?

At Pender UMC, Sunday July 7: 8:15, 9:30 and 11:00 am. The sermon archives will be available early next week.

“Let us therefore make every effort to do what leads to peace and to mutual edification.” (Romans 14:19)

Sunday, June 30th Sermon ~ The Debt of Love

28 Jun

There is only one debt for the follower of Christ. It is the debt of love we owe. Giving our love away isn’t a suggestion but a debt to be paid. Let’s see how we are doing on the payment of love.

“Let no debt remain outstanding, except the continuing debt to love one another, for whoever loves others has fulfilled the law. The commandments, “You shall not commit adultery,” “You shall not murder,” “You shall not steal,” “You shall not covet,” and whatever other command there may be, are summed up in this one command: “Love your neighbor as yourself.” Love does no harm to a neighbor. Therefore love is the fulfillment of the law.” (Romans 13:8-10)

At Pender UMC, 8:15, 9:30 and 11:00am
