Family Matters: Go Ask Your Mom
05/11/08
Dr. Phil Wilkes, Exodus 20:12
This message begins a series entitled “Family Matters”. Being Mother’s Day we begin by celebrating the efforts and sacrifices of Mom while also recognizing that mom is not a superwoman or perfect.
God tells us to honor our parents, knowing that there are no perfect moms or dads. There are several ways to honor your mom and dad. Sometimes honoring parents is challenging because mom or dad have not been the kind of parent that deserves honor. What does God say to us about that? How do we respond to parents who have not fulfilled their responsibilities to love and nurture their children?
God gives us instructions for how to honor our moms and dads, even when they sometimes fail. God offers us hope and the opportunity to heal relationships and to be able to truly celebrate our moms.

Seeking the Truth
05/04/08
Dr. Phil Wilkes, John 3:16, Acts 8:26-33
This is the final message in a series on becoming a Contagious Christian. In John and Acts we read about two different individuals who were successful by most standards. They were powerful, successful, financially independent and well respected in their communities. Yet both men knew something was missing from their lives.
Like these men people today often experience all kinds of success but are still left empty on the inside. They seek to fill this emptiness with activities, wealth, success, pleasure or any number of other things. What we need is to experience God’s grace through Jesus Christ.
