In the business world when an employee voluntarily leaves an organization an exit interview is often scheduled in order to learn and improve the organization and the employee. As true Christians we know that we face our most significant interaction with our Creator at the time of our judgement. In this sermonette we will consider several scriptures that can help us become and remain more prepared for this.
Sermons
Every Thought
Christianity is a Way of living, and it involves “spiritual” thinking and acting as Jesus Christ instructs. This stands in total contrast to “carnal” thinking and acting, a way which ends in death.
Into the Future
Is it even possible to do anything at the present time that will allow us to look into the future, in which we know what will happen to us?
Maintaining Balance
Living a balanced life takes continuous practice. How can we detect when we might be falling off balance before we fall? The Bible abounds with examples for us to learn from, so we can become ever better at balancing the varied conditions and competing interests in our lives.
An Ode To 40
As I turn 40, I want to reflect on seeing God’s hand in my life while also connecting this personal milestone to the Bible’s repeated use of the number 40 as a symbol of testing, judgment, purification, and new beginnings—from Noah’s flood and Moses’ fasts to Israel’s wandering, Elijah’s journey, and Christ’s temptations and post-resurrection ministry. These “forty” periods always lead to renewal, covenant, and deeper relationship with God. Listeners of any age should view their own trials as God-given opportunities for spiritual growth, transformation, and preparation for His Kingdom.
Do the Opposite
Because of ignorance and uncertainty, thinking that “the law” has been done away with, we have what we have today: people doing as they please, keeping holidays which are not from God, abusing their bodies in ways which are shameful in God’s eyes, giving into sin and deceit, and forsaking God’s specific commands on how to live a Godly life. What does the Bible actually say when it comes to “the law” and in what way are we to do the opposite from what the world in general justifies in their own eyes?
America in Decline and Free Fall?—Comments on News and Prophecy, November 29, 2025
The Bible tells us that America’s decline is inevitable. It is far from over! In fact, the signs indicate that the downfall, which has begun, is irreversible. At the same time, a great power in Europe is rising, which is also explained in God’s Word. In this message, many examples will be given which prove the accuracy of these prophecies.
Do We Overlook Important Lessons in the Book of Job?
The Book of Job is a multifaceted book that is as relevant today as ever. How do we react when we suffer seemingly “without cause”? Do we feel that God is acting unjustly toward us? Do we become entangled in contradictions and, because of our suffering, forget important insights? How do we “comfort” and “teach” someone else who is suffering? Are we sure that our assessment of the situation also applies to that person? Are we truly helping, or are we merely “miserable comforters”? How does God give us answers? What is the true meaning of the Book of Job? And what other inspired truths does it contain for us?
Is the Second Commandment Needed?
When we read the ten commandments, It would appear that the first commandment would make the second commandment unnecessary. However, God knows the nature of men and their tendency toward idolatry, and therefore included the second commandment because of this tendency.
Staying in Your Lane, Part 2
This sermon provides several examples of those who stayed in their lane. We will also see how God rewarded them for their faithfulness and desire not to compromise by carrying out the instructions given to them
