Moving

by Bruce Miller

Most every one has heard already I am sure that we are moving to Wessington Springs, Immanuel  Baptist. I have been reflecting alot lately about the ministry here in Winner. The Winner Ministerial has been one of a kind, working together as owners of the Winner Thrift Store. And being a part of a ministry […]

“Loving, the Essence of a Believer”

by Bruce Miller

Christians, Followers of Christ, Those who have put your faith in Jesus Christ! Listen to what Paul says in Romans 13:8-10 “Owe nothing to anyone except to love one another; for he who loves his neighbor has fulfilled the law. For this, “You shall not commit adultery, You shall not murder, You shall not steal, […]

Living in Peace

by Bruce Miller

The text that I am speaking on tomorrow is Romans 12:17-21. I love verse 18, “If possible, so far as it depends on you, be at peace with all men.” This verse is counter-cultural, at least in America. In America we compare ourselves to every one else in just about every area of our life.  […]

Living in Harmony

by Bruce Miller

I have done quit a bit of counseling during my stay here in Winner, SD. It does not matter if it is a marriage that is need of some help or someone else that simply has another issue. Someone told me a definition of anger once that says “Anger is when someone violates your rights.” […]

Leonard Sweet’s book Summoned to Lead, has a very interesting story in it concerning what we do with Jesus. He says, “David Anderson, rector of Trinity church in Solebury, Pennsylvania, begins his book Breakfast Epiphanies with these words: Several years ago I ran into a friend at a dinner party. When I asked him how […]

Self Importance

by Bruce Miller

Someone once told me, “I used to be conceited, but now I am perfect.” Reminds me of the song by Mac Davis, “OH LORD IT’S HARD TO BE HUMBLE.” This week as I worked on the sermon for Sunday, I was reminded of what it means to be angry. It simply means that “your” rights […]

Be a Holy and Living Sacrifice

by Bruce Miller

Imagine with me, if you will, the professional football player (I will let you put your favorite player in here) was hired because he had talent. The team owner and coach looked at his high school videos, his college videos and maybe even looked at his personality, not sure about that one. Then, the player […]

Cavity

I am sure, if you are reading this Post, it is because you are thinking, what on earth is Pastor Bruce going to say? Or you might have looked just because that is what you do. At least, I hope that your curiosity was sparked some what by the title to this Blog. I was […]

The Chief Cornerstone

by Bruce Miller

It has been a long time since I have posted anything on our web page. My mom died in October and life has not been the same since. We all go through difficult times, the Bible promises that, but in John 16:33 it says  “I have told you these things, so that in me you […]

Respectable Sins

by Bruce Miller

One of our adult Sunday School classes is going to start studying the book “Respectable Sins” by Jerry Bridges. The first Sentence on the back of the book says “Have Christians become so preoccupied with the major sins of our society that we have lost sight of our need to deal with our own more […]
