• Living All Your Life
    Nov 17 2024

    It has wisely been said that “some people die at 40, but are buried at 65.” What is implied here is that some people do not get out of life all that they wish to have; they just exist, but do not really LIVE. Today the message is based on the words of Jesus from John’s gospel, chapter 10, verse 10, where He says, “I have come, that they may have life and have it to the full.” We’ll look today at some of those things that keep us from living “ALL your life.” Thank you for worshipping with us today from Ocean Lakes Family Campground.

  • Losers --- Keepers
    Nov 10 2024

    Do you remember as a child hearing the expression, “Finders keepers, losers, weepers?” On this Sunday after our national election day, there are probably many people who may be in that second category, as they are at least symbolically “weeping” because the person (or persons) they voted for did not succeed in being elected. But the sermon today is not about politics or elections. It is based on the verse from Mark’s gospel, chapter 8, verse 35 - - the words of Jesus, where He talks about finding and losing. Let’s look together at what Jesus had to say about this.

  • Life’s Higher Values
    Oct 27 2024

    What is the most important thing in your life? Your family? Your work? Your friends? Your house? Your money? We would all probably agree that all these things have their own place of importance. This morning we are thinking together about those things in life which we ought to consider our life’s higher values. Maybe this is a good time for us all to set some priorities - not on things, but on qualities that make our life meaningful.

  • The Righteousness of God
    Oct 20 2024

    Would you consider yourself a righteous person? What makes a person righteous? Regular church attendance? Paying your bills? Being good to others? Honesty? There were some people living during Jesus' days on earth who had a very high opinion of themselves - - very righteous, they would say. But Jesus had a different opinion. Today may well be the perfect time to look at our own lives and see where we stand in God's view of righteousness. Thank you for worshipping with us today from Ocean Lakes Family Campground.

  • The Kind of Church God Honors
    Oct 13 2024

    Does God have any people that He favors above others? Does He show any partiality? What about a church? Does God like one denomination more than others? We all already have some ideas about the answers to these questions, but the title of today's message is, "The Kind of Church God Honors." Hopefully, at the end of these next few minutes, we can all agree on this subject. Stay with us, and let's see. Thank you for worshipping with us today from Ocean Lakes Family Campground.

  • Life’s Echoes
    Oct 6 2024

    One of the most fascinating things in the world of nature is what we call an echo. You speak a word or two, listen quietly, and your voice comes back to you. This is true also in the world of human nature. What we give out comes back in one way or another. Jesus said it well: “With what measure you mete, it shall be measured to you again.” Today we are thinking about “Life’s Echoes.” It’s not all bad; this CAN be a blessing to us also. Let’s think about this for the next few minutes. Thank you for worshipping with us today from Ocean Lakes Family Campground.

  • Gather the People
    Sep 29 2024

    One of the most colorful individuals in the entire Old Testament is the man we know as Moses. He led the people out of Egyptian slavery to the very edge of the Promised Land. In Deuteronomy, chapter 31, we have the account of what Moses did just before the people were to enter that land which God had promised them many years before. He wanted everyone to be able to hear what he had to say, so what he did was the title of today's sermon: "Gather the People." What Moses said to them that day is also God's message to us. As the scripture says elsewhere, "He that hath ears to hear, let him hear."
