Sermons by Mark Adams

1 – O Lord, You have searched me and You know me. 2 – You know when I sit and when I rise; You perceive my thoughts from afar. 3 – You discern my going out and my lying down; You are familiar with all my ways. 4 – Before a word is on my […]

One day last summer Daniel and I decided to go for a long jog together down the Needwood trail heading toward the D.C. line. There had been thunderstorms that morning but they had dumped their rain and moved on and the heat of the day had dissipated so we felt it was a great time […]

This past week I was channel surfing and came upon the last few moments of one of my favorite movies-the old Civil War epic, Shenandoah. If you’ve seen it then you know that it’s the story of a successful Virginia farmer and rancher, played by Jimmy Stewart, who has six sons. Well, Stewart’s character stubbornly […]

1 Corinthians 12 12 – The body is a unit, though it is made up of many parts; and though all its parts are many, they form one body. So it is with Christ. 13 – For we were all baptized by one Spirit into one body-whether Jews or Greeks, slave or free-and we were […]

I think that unfortunately most of us are familiar with MURPHY’S LAWS-those humorous lists of things that, according to some guy named Murphy, can and do go wrong in life.

A couple weeks ago about 15-20 Redlanders drove up to Poolesville to spend the day working on a house that is being built there by Habitat for Humanity. I was really proud as a pastor to see so many from our church show up early on a cold Saturday morning with all their TOOLS ready […]

I like old movies and perhaps due to my line of work, I especially like the old Biblical epics that were made years ago: classic films like: Ben Hur, The Ten Commandments, The Robe, etc. Well, as I studied today’s text this week I wondered why Hollywood has never made a Biblical epic about the […]

Like many of you, most nights during the past couple weeks my family and I gathered around the TV so that we could watch the Winter Olympics. In fact we’ve gone without sleep so that we could enjoy our favorite Olympic events-even those that were broadcast after midnight. After all this spectating I’ve decided that […]
