Spend a few minutes with Rev. Kirk Lawton for insight and encouragement through the word of God. The longtime Chaplain for Ocean Lakes Family Campground has been an inspiration to thousands of campground guests from all over North America. Located on 310 oceanfront acres in Myrtle Beach, SC, Ocean Lakes is one of the largest family-owned campgrounds in the United States and has welcomed travelers for nearly 50 years. The non-denominational Church Service is held in the Recreation Center every Sunday at 9 AM with up to 800 in attendance.
Do you have any memories from your childhood when you were away from home for a brief or for an extended period, and then the time came for you to return home? Feelings about this may vary, depending on the kind of home you were coming back to. But if it was a home where love is, then you may have been able to relate to a person in a Bible story who was happy to come home. We don't know this person's name; we just call him "The Prodigal Son." Today we are thinking together on the subject, "When the Heart Turns Home."

When It's Time to Leave the Huddle
Football season is now upon us. This is a source of joy to many fans, and maybe not so much for those who care nothing for the sport. There are many exciting aspects to a football game, but one of the least thrilling parts of any game is the huddle - - where the players get together and decide what they will do next. Have you ever thought what it would be like if the players just stayed there and never left the huddle? Well, that's what the sermon is about today: "When It's Time to Leave the Huddle."

Food for the Hungry
Churches today like to be known by some interesting titles: "The Community Church," "The Bible-Believing Church," "The Church Where Love Is," and there are some churches which like to be called (maybe with a note of humor), "The Church of the Covered Dish." Of all the miracles of Jesus recorded in the four gospels, there is only one which we find in ALL FOUR of the gospels - - Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. Stay with us for a few minutes, and we'll find what that one is. Want a hint? The sermon title for today is "Food for the Hungry."
