     | 6,954 views

    The mission of the local church is to enable as many people as possible to know, to love, and to serve God with all their heart, soul, mind, and strength.

    A pastor thought God gave Him an idea, and he presented it in the monthly deacons meeting. After giving a passionate plea that would bring tears to a Broadway audience and really “selling” the idea to the deacon board, they voted down the pastors proposed changes 12-1. The chairman of ...read more

    Maybe you don’t think you have much to give but let me assure you that God can turn the smallest deed, just a token of your time, whatever you have into life changing actions.

    Maybe you don’t think you have much to give but let me assure you that God can turn the smallest deed, just a token of your time, whatever you have into life changing actions. I read a story World War II that shows how the smallest deed can make all the difference in the world to ...read more

     | 6,897 views

    You and I are not here to sit, soak and sour. We are here to serve God and bring others to Jesus NOT because we are told we must but because Jesus loved us enough to die for each of us and we must love Him enough to care and to serve.

    Last we looked at our Wake-up call #1 is “We are the Church” Today I want to look at Wake-up Call #2- We have a Mission! When Hudson Taylor was director of the China Inland Mission, he often interviewed candidates for the mission field. On one occasion, he met with a group of applicants ...read more

    The main reason a church does not grow is that it doesn't want to grow. Is that where are?

    In his book Comeback Churches, Ed Stetzer said this: “Comeback churches cast a compelling vision for outreach. They made intentional, strategic efforts to move outward. ** The main reason a church does not grow is that it doesn’t want to grow. Everyone in the church should be engaged ...read more

    "A saint is a person who lets the light shine through."

    Lighting The Way Series

    Contributed by James Lee on Nov 10, 2014
     | 7,353 views

    We, as believers have experienced the light and know how wonderful it is to be in the light. But for many, darkness is all they have ever known.

    In the nineteenth century, lighthouses on the U.S. coasts were tended by lighthouse keepers and their families. If a man who tended the light took ill or became disabled, often the work was the picked up by his wife or children. This was the case of Hosea Lewis. In 1853, Lewis became the keeper of ...read more

    There’s nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We were born to manifest the glory of God that is within us . . . And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. Nelson Mandela

    Nelson Mandela once said; “Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, “Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous?” Actually, ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 10,134 views

    Thank you Pastor John Hamby for the original message. Much of this has remained the same, simply because it spoke to our need so well.

    I want to begin looking at our theme for 2014, which is “Learning to be the light.” We’ll start by looking a passage in Matthew 5 and before we look at the idea of being light I believe we need to look at this concept of being salt. Since Jesus added salt to light, here, ...read more

    I believe that it’s good to have friends who will go the extra mile for you.

    Way back in the 90s, I had to preach the funeral of a man I never met. The funeral home called and asked if I would perform the service since I was the pastor of the church, where he was to be buried. I found out something very interesting about the man, as I spoke with the family members. It seems ...read more

Real Mothers know that their kitchen utensils are probably in the sandbox. Real Mothers often have sticky floors, filthy ovens and happy ...read more
