Satan Provides

October 22, 2015October 22, 2015 / Scott McCown / 4 Comments

A few years ago when I decided I needed to lose weight (truthfully, I am at that point again), I decided to try a high protein - low carb diet for a few days.  After a two days, I was beginning to tell a difference. On day three, a minister friend called and asked about … Continue reading Satan Provides

Knowing the Enemy’s Method

Peter says, "Be sober-minded; be watchful. Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour. Resist him, firm in your faith, knowing that the same kinds of suffering are being experienced by your brotherhood throughout the world." (1Pe 5:8-9). Our enemy knows our tendencies, do we know his?

Imitating Satan

November 4, 2014 / Scott McCown / Leave a comment

If you have followed this blog for sometime, you might have seen this back in 2009.  I pulled it from the archives and used it as the basis of the lesson Sunday night at Central.

Knowing the Enemy

November 3, 2014 / Scott McCown / Leave a comment

As Christians, we need to know our enemy. Your enemy is not others in your congregation that you had a disagreement with. Your enemy is not the church down the road. Our enemy is not the people across the political aisle. The enemy is Satan - the devil.  Starting today and for a few posts that … Continue reading Knowing the Enemy

If this danger describes us, then we can fall prey to persecution. If this characteristic is ours, we open ourselves up to the manipulation of false … Continue reading What Destroys Churches: Indifference

When Tragedy Stikes: Why Do Bad Things Happen – Part 3

April 28, 2014 / Scott McCown / 5 Comments

Friday we discussed that bad happens because we live in a world cursed by sin. A second observation is that Bad Things Happen Because of Satan's Continued Activity in the World. I hear people say “Everything happens for a reason.” They say that as a statement of faith that indicates that they are trying to … Continue reading When Tragedy Stikes: Why Do Bad Things Happen – Part 3

If I Were the Devil . . .

February 8, 2012 / Scott McCown / 2 Comments

This year we began a series on Wednesday evenings on Resisting the Devil.  We are learning that we can resist the devil and he will run from us.  We are learning about temptation and his methodology.  We are learning to say,"No, get behind me, Satan."  This class is empowering us to draw nearer to God … Continue reading If I Were the Devil . . .

King of the Sand Dune

July 13, 2010 / Scott McCown / Leave a comment

Growing up near Pensacola Beach, Florida the sand dunes in this picture were a great place to play king of the mountain.  If you were a child, you know the game.  You climb the hill and defend your territory from all contenders.  The only rule:  do what ever it takes to stay on the top … Continue reading King of the Sand Dune
