Sermons from Sweet Home
This podcast is a library of the weekly Biblical lessons presented at Highway 20 Church of Christ in Sweet Home, Oregon. You will find simple, yet truthful insights and applications to the Biblical texts in these lessons. The majority of these sermons are done by Machiel Greyling, the evangelist of the church. These lessons strengthen and encourage the church here in Sweet Home, and we believe it will do the same to those who listen to them from wherever the Spirit will will send it.

There are various reasons for this, but many people have come to believe that the solution to their inner life problems lies outside of themselves in another person, a church, or some special knowledge. But the truth is that the only way to healing and health is through our insides, through inner humility and an inner contact with Jesus.
Here in this text we see the introduction of the prostitute Rahab into the Biblical narrative. It teaches us that God can meet people anywhere on Earth in any circumstance. This section of text also teaches us that we can be confident over our futures, not because we are something but because God has already been there.
In this latter part of the first chapter of Joshua we pick up some lessons about leadership. We also learn what it means to be sojourners.
As we unpack these opening verses of the Book of Judges we learn that God's presence is guaranteed for those who are on His mission. When we spread light we expel darkness. And what further guarantees the success of our endeavors is a commitment to God's Word, to meditate on it, speak it and obey it.
We live in a world where most people are fake, where most people feel unsafe to be real. But yet, most people desire to be real, to unmask, to just be themselves. They seek to be honest because it is tiring to fake it. But what they really need is people who won't judge them when they are just being real, and in Christian circles this is very difficult, because Christians can be very judgmental. So, do people see the real you, or i...
According to James the wildest part of the body is the tongue. Who can tame it?
Luther said "grace alone, faith alone, Christ alone". James does not agree with Luther, and for this reason Luther called the Epistle of James an "epistle of straw". Who do you trust? James, the brother of Jesus, leader in the Jerusalem church? Or, Martin Luther?
Among God's people, nobody is elevated over anyone else. Status disappears. The only person higher than anyone else is Jesus Christ Himself.
Pure and Faultless religion involves widows, orphans, a bridled tongue and living according to different rules than Satan's world.
If you listen to the Word, but don't do it you are deceiving yourself.
"Be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to anger"
When God gives you something you need it will be at the right time and it will also be the exact right gift!
Sin, where does it come from and whose fault is it?
When people come to Jesus from the world run by Satan they suddenly encounter a different social environment. Suddenly riches isn't that valuable. Suddenly status in according to worldly systems doesn't apply anymore. Jesus puts everybody on the same level. He raises the poor and he humbles the rich.
The one thing the people in our world so desperately need is the one thing that we ask God for the least. Yet, if we ask God for it, He will give it freely because He knows the value that it has for our lives.
