    This is an introductory sermon to a series on First Peter. In this sermon, we get reacquainted with the man who wrote it, the people to whom he sent it, and the particular situation that prompted him to write it.

    Jesus’ gift to us is an eternal gift that we get to keep for ourselves and pass on to others at the same time.

    This morning I want to ask you to think about your favorite Christmas gift ever. Maybe it was a little red wagon or a shiny new bicycle. Maybe it was an article of clothing or the latest video game. Now let me ask you a question. Where is that gift today? Chances are, we have no idea. Toys become ...read more

    I am truly discovering that life’s obstacles are truly opportunities for God to show just how awesome He really is. Obstacles give us God stories! Do you need a God story today?

    LIVING HOPE 1 Peter 1 My son asked, “If Sea World really loves animals, then why do they keep them captive?” What a deep question. Maybe you can relate. If someone loves you, then why are you still held captive? If people in your world love you when why do they keep you captive? ...read more

    The culture uses logic to disprove God. Christians try to defend God using a worldly vision and experience and lose the discussion.

We talked about how the culture believes that Christianity and religion in general are exclusive. The religion is the reason for a lack of ...read more
