American Blues
Blues in the context of national suffering. There are times when the nation goes through difficulties, and because of that we suffer and get the blues. The question is what we do with those blues, and how we handle them.

The Wedding
God’s plan for any couple getting married is that they have a pure and joyful wedding celebration to unite their lives as one spiritually, emotionally and relationally. Then, they have a magnificent, amazing and steamy wedding night in which to celebrate their wedding and unite their lives as one sexually. It’s a simple plan…and it works.

The One
It’s interesting how our culture thinks we should pick a marriage partner on the basis of who we like or “loveâ€. We think we can make a wise choice on marriage when we have never been married. We think we can choose our life mate when we don’t even know who we are ourselves, much less who we will become.

5 Ways To Wait
We all hate to wait and yet most of us believe that God is sovereign in His planning and timing. So why do we hate to wait? James 5:7-12 shows us that as believers, we are to wait without worrying, without wavering, without whining, without wondering and without warranting.

"Wait 'til Your Father Comes Home" A Lesson on the Wrath of God
Part 10 "Wait 'til your Father Comes Home" Romans 1:18-19 As we look at this weighty scripture, we should give attention to: 1. Contemporary preachers' fear of preaching this truth. We must speak of this truth because: * The Bible proclaims it. * It teaches us about our greatest problem. * It gives us a proper view of God. * It gives us a passion for the gospel. 2. A proper understanding of the facts surrounding this truth. The Bible speaks about: * The characteristics of this wrath. * The consistency of this wrath. * The categories of this wrath. * The course of this wrath. 3. The primary focus of this wrath. God's wrath is being revealed because of humanity's: * Ungodliness * Unrighteousness * Unwillingness 4. The perfect formula for turning away this wrath. This biblical formula involves: * Examining your life. * Making every effort to know God. Allowing your life to be an evidence of God's grace.

The Return of the King
In His final hours with His disciples, Jesus promised that even though He was going away, that He would return again. He said He was going to prepare a place for us in His Father's house, that He would come to take us to His Father's home. It was a well-known wedding custom of the day.... A groom would announce his intentions to marry, and then return to his father's home to build on a room where he and his new bride would live. When the room was finished, he would come to the bride's home and escort her back for their wedding celebration. As in many of the stories we've looked at this summer, this weekend's parable comes in response to a question. The disciples asked: "...what will be the sign of your coming and of the end of the age?" (Matthew 24:3). The text, and the surrounding context leaves us with the challenge: Will I be watching and waiting when the King returns? Key Passage: Matthew 25:1-12

Promises
Are we willing to wait in anticipation of what God has promised rather than demanding we get it now? We live in a "now" culture, where instant gratification is the norm. But Jesus' command to the disciples to simply wait on the Holy Spirit still holds true for us today. Pentecost is only a week away--can we wait that long?

John 5:1-42 - A Sign Goes Unheeded
Jesus demonstrated His power as the Messiah by healing a lame man who had been crippled for thirty-eight years, but the man and the religious authorities were too wrapped up in following their unnecessary human rules that they completely missed the sign that the One they had read about and been waiting for had come.
