    Erasing the excuses for being exclusive.

    Today is National Ice Cream Day. Did you know that when ice cream was invented the Quakers thought it was sinful. According to them it had to be sinful. Nothing could taste that good and not be sinful! That kind of sums up the perspective of a lot of Christ followers. If anything is fun - it ...read more

    Like Peter, we don’t always want to accept God’s choice for those we are to witness to. Let’s learn to witness to those who we feel aren’t good enough.

    Someone has said that the only people that like change are wet babies... and even they aren’t too excited about it. Consider what happened when God brought change to the early church.

    Peter discovers that God has more in mind than just the people of Israel as he’s taken outside his comfort zone to share the gospel with Cornelius

    It’s a weird story isn’t it? Peter’s up on the roof of Simon the Tanner’s house in the middle of the day praying and he starts to feel hungry. So he asks the cook to prepare some lunch and while he’s waiting he falls into a trance. Perhaps the heat of the day has got to him. Perhaps he starts to ...read more

    Fueled by Philip Yancey’s What’s So Amazing About Grace?, Jesus’resurrection showed that God opened the door for oddballs and misfits.

    Acts 10:9-16 – From Lamb to Ham I’ve been wanting to preach this message for some time. And right after Easter is a good time to do it. Today I’m talking about one of the changes that Jesus made by His life and death. I’m talking about food. Now, our religion has very little to do with ...read more
