    God gifts believers in various ways for the building up of His church.

    Do you like the way your body looks? Some of you do and some of you do don’t. But all of us can find parts that need improving.

    This sermon explores Elijah's interactions with the widow of Zarephath, and we learn that God never abandons us, faith requires obedience, and to receive a blessing I must be a blessing. Faith was the key to Elijah's ministry.

    Hebrews 11 has been called God’s “Hall of Faith.” Like the Hall of Fame in sports or other arenas of life, Hebrews 11 gives us the names and tells us, if ever so briefly, what God’s people accomplished “by faith.” We hear such profound accomplishments ...read more

    Joseph's life was filled with turmoil. He was an abandoned by his brothers, became a slave, accused of rape, and imprisoned. And yet, Joseph handled all of these situations with absolute faith that God was with him.

    I want to ask you a question that can actually shape how you view all of life. Whether times are good, or times are bad, what would you do if you absolutely knew God was with you?

    Jesus taught about divorce. He called believers to a life of faithfulness. Unfortunately, sometimes faithfulness is abandoned and lives are destroyed. What is our response to those who experience the pain of divorce and unfaithfulness?

    Today we will be looking at Matthew 5:27-32. If you do not have a Bible with you the Scripture passages can be found on the bulletin insert.
