Did you know that several Bible characters have been given nick-names? Some are recorded in the scripture, but others are not. There is one man in the Old Testament who has been given the title, "The Weeping Prophet." He cried a lot because his heart was breaking because of the nation's refusal to return to God. Our subject today is "Journey Back to God." This is what we all need to have when we go astray from God's love.

Do you remember playing a game when you were a child called “Hide and Seek?” One person would be “It” and would hide their eyes while others ran and hid. Then after counting to a certain number in a sing-song kind of way, “It” would say, “Here I come, ready or not.” Today we’re thinking about the matter of being ready when God calls us. Many will not be ready, and there is great peril in putting off Jesus. That is our subject for this morning.

We welcome you this morning to our Sunday worship service from Ocean Lakes Family Campground in Myrtle Beach, SC. If today would be your last day on earth, and tomorrow you find yourself in a totally different place, can you honestly say that you were ready for that new residence? Throughout the Bible we are given many words of warning that we should be ready when that call comes for us. This is what we are thinking about in today's message: "The Call to Be Ready." Let's give now some serious thought to this all-important matter. Thank you for joining us in worship today.

The Bible speaks of heaven in terms of a mansion. But there are other words which are also used to describe the final residence of all those who know Jesus, the Son of God, as their own personal Savior. Today we will take a look at some of these beautiful ideas, terms, to see what God has let us knew about heaven - “A House Not Made with Hands.”

During this month of September, we are going to be thinking about a subject which is special to many people - HEAVEN. Do you believe in heaven? Many do; some do not. The sermon today will be interspersed with the congregation singing several hymns about heaven. The congregational singing will not be on the podcast, but if you know some of these old favorite hymns, perhaps you can sing them also as we worship together.

In John’s gospel, chapter 16, the very last verse, Jesus told His followers, “In the world you shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.” That’s the KJV. In another translation, that verse reads this way: “While you are in the world, you will have to suffer. But cheer up! I have defeated the world.” That sounds like something we all could use, doesn’t it? For the next few minutes we will be thinking about how Jesus was able to deal with suffering, hardships, and all other kinds of situations.

If you have ever been totally occupied in giving your full time and attention to some project, and along comes someone who interrupts you in what you’re doing, then you know just how frustrating and annoying that can be. You may be tempted to give that person “a piece of your mind.” The Bible tells us that Jesus was “in all points tempted, as we are, yet without sin.” This may well be the time when a look at how Jesus handled interruptions can help us also. That’s what our subject is this morning: “Jesus and Interruptions.”

If you were to ask the average person today the question, “Are you a Christian?” you may get a variety of answers. Some may say, “Yes, I am. I try to be good to others; I pay my debts; I am faithful in my marriage; I am a good husband (or wife)” - and on and on it may go. But what is it that determines if a person is truly a Christian or not? That’s what we’re asking in today’s sermon: “How can I be sure I am a Christian?” Can one be sure at all? It’s a good question, and not only our peace of mind on this earth is based on our answer, but also this has a bearing on our eternal destiny.
