    We take a candid look at our role as Innkeepers, the major excuses for turning Christ away, and the final journey we will all make to the Heavenly Inn. Will He be forced to turn us away because we wouldn't let Him in?

    The final sermon of this series, "The Ends of the Earth," and in preparation of dedicating over 700 shoeboxes for Samaritan's Purse Operation Christmas Child. It is all for the glory of God.

    Curiosity and greed are part of our DNA, patience is not. It is the fruit of the Holy Spirit and must be cherished and fed in order to grow in our lives. We must be patient with others and with God just as God is patient with us.

Not so much because of Christmas, but because I also had my birthday. Like most kids, I also had many things on my wish list. My ...read more
