1. Shame on You
1 Timothy 1:12-17
Sermon
Leonard Sweet
A sense of guilt and shame can sometimes be spiritually healthy. Dogs are great at guilt. The moment you walk into the house, a dog will telegraph to you with its whole body the sin it has committed. The eyes squint and dart this way and that. The ears are flattened. The head is lowered. The tail trails. Pathetically ingratiating behavior usually accompanies all this - desperate little hand licks...

Someone once said that the only constant in life is change. No matter who you are, one of the greatest challenges you will face is managing the changes that take place in life. We have limited control over some of the changes we face. Our hair changes color and sometimes falls out. We gain weight as we become less active and our metabolism slows.

We usually don't spend too much time thinking about our own sinfulness. On occasion, of course, our feelings of guilt overwhelm us. We can't stop thinking about our sinfulness. If we are in that situation, we may need to talk that out with someone. Apart from times like that, we don't think much about our own sinfulness. We have ways of getting around that. We don't think about our sins because w...

In 1811, the U. S. Treasury established what is known as a Conscience Fund when an anonymous individual mailed the government $5. Since that time, over $4 million...
6. The Weakest Link
1 Timothy 1:12-20
Sermon
Leonard Sweet
Am I the only one left who gets embarrassed watching other people stand up and make fools of themselves? I cringe when anyone is caught on camera and on-mike saying and doing stupid things. I close my eyes when someone on television gets tongue-tied, looks ridiculous, or just generally exposes their humanity. I even get squeamish and decide it's time to pour another cup of coffee when Al Roker st...

In the early 1800’s, after attending a Methodist “frolic of faith” known as a Camp Meeting, somebody wrote this little ditty: I’m a Methodist, Methodist, Methodist, Methodist, Eatin’ Methodist pie. I’m a Methodist, Methodist, Methodist, Methodist, Methodist till I die. Here at the dawn of the 21st century, nobody is concerned about the makers of the pie and to commit to anything until you die — ...
