    You must make a choice of alignment- either with the weakness and foolishness of God- or the supposed strength and wisdom of the world.

    Weakness January 27, 2001 Strength is a ‘big deal’ anymore. It shows up in many guises and in many different situations. Just a week or so back, there was a lot of advertising from the World Wrestling Federation (WWF) encouraging people not to miss the wonderful wrestling by the world’s strongest ...read more

    Paul uses tremendous contrasts to show the need to distrust the world and to completely trust God and what He offers.

    The Good, The Bad, and the Ugly February 10, 2001 Contrasts can be a wonderful tool to use in order to make a point. We’re very familiar with contrasts that use extremes and represent opposite ends of a spectrum. Some of these include, black and white, big and small, tall and short, fat and thin, ...read more

    Es importante no decir lo que el mundo quiere escuchar, sino predicar ley y evangelio.

    "Gracias por su mensaje esta mañana, pastor." "Fue un muy buen sermón, pastor." Al salir del culto, a veces se pueden escuchar estas frases, ¿verdad? "Fue un muy buen sermón, pastor." Pues, a veces la gente lo dicen nada más como un decir, sin pensar mucho en lo que están diciendo. Pero hay ...read more

    Never let us assume that we are in control of our lives, because God has the final answer.

    A Word from God What I am about to share with each of you this week, to some might seem odd, unreal or unbelievable and many will acknowledge it to something just ordinary. But to me anything so divine and real can’t be contained in our lives without sharing it with another. In “1 ...read more

    An examination of some of the myths about heaven and the reality of way heaven will be.

    Intro: For many people, all they know about heaven they’ve learned from movies. How do movies portray heaven? Everything’s white; puffy clouds everywhere; it looks like you’re living inside a carton of cotton balls; apparently the only activity is strumming on harps. This nightmare scenario of ...read more

    Why can't some people "get it" when it comes to the Christian gospel?

    Sometimes the words we speak just don't connect with the person to whom we are speaking. During the first week of basic training, an army drill sergeant was explaining what was in store for his squad during the next two months. One young private raised his hand and asked, "Sergeant, when do we ...read more

    How can we as Christians decide when to discuss or not discuss what we believe with a fellow believer, especially one who differs with us?

    Christians boast loudly and proudly in what their Savior has done for them.

    “My dad is bigger than your dad.” “I’ve got Nintendo 64 and you don’t.” “I scored more points than you.” Any of these phrases sound familiar? Maybe you’ve heard them from the mouths of your kids. Or maybe you have uttered a phrase like that sometime in your life. It seems that childhood is ...read more

    Paul desired to know nothing of the Corinthians but Jesus Christ and Him crucified. The most important question we can ask is what will you do with the message of the gospel? Nothing else matters unless this question is answered correctly.

    SIMPLICITY OF THE GOSPEL By Pastor Jim May 1 Corinthians 2:1-5, "And I, brethren, when I came to you, came not with excellency of speech or of wisdom, declaring unto you the testimony of God.

    How can the modern professional cope with the overwhelming sense of emptiness and irrelevance?

    Faced with the challenge of Corinth, Paul rolled up his sleeves and got right down to basics. He determined to put aside all other practical and doctrinal issues and focused entirely on Jesus Christ and Him crucified. But why does Paul mention ’Him crucified’, and not ’Him resurrected’? Because ...read more
