    Surveys show that 94% of Americans own a Bible; 90% of us believe it still applies today—yet only half of us read it weekly (including church), and only 29% read it weekly outside of church. There is a disconnect here.

    These blessings are described: the Father chose us (4-6); the Son redeemed us (7-12); and the Spirit sealed us (13-14). Today we are going to focus on the first of the three blessings described: The Father chose us (4-6).

    if you have your bibles turn to Ephesians 1:3-14. Last week we started the series with an introduction to the letter. Paul wrote this letter to circulate to the churches in and around Ephesus with prayer that they experience God’s grace and peace through this letter. This week we are in 1:3-14 ...read more

    I cannot imagine living the Christian in isolation without your fellowship and the fellowship of God.

    Introduction Today as we conclude our sermon series on Light in the Darkness, the challenge for each one of us is to keep the light the God’s says that we can walk in shinning bright in our lives.

    The difference was plain as day! It was a quick trip to the park on a Saturday evening. Nothing major, just a few minutes with the family to get out the hyper-activity. I didn’t notice it right away, but once it sank in, there was no stopping the waves of sadness, frustration, and anger.

    Everything She Had: A Life That Matters Series

    Contributed by Amiri Hooker on Nov 6, 2021
     | 2,676 views

    The first attribute of a life that matters that we will examine in this series of sermons this month is generosity. Generosity, as reflected in our gospel text this week, is about how we hold the stuff of this life lightly, even as we hold people and Christ tightly.

    A well-known hymn that captures this idea of generosity is “Take My Life, and Let It Be,” 399 in The United Methodist Hymnal. The middle verse often catches us singing with our fingers crossed: “Take my silver and my gold; not a mite would I withhold.” In this text of the widow’s mite, we need to ...read more

    How Are You Living Your Christian Life?

     | 3,036 views

    Everything is pure to those whose hearts are pure. But nothing is pure to those who are corrupt and unbelieving, because their minds and consciences are corrupted.

    “Everything is pure to those whose hearts are pure. But nothing is pure to those who are corrupt and unbelieving, because their minds and consciences are corrupted. 16 Such people claim they know God, but they deny him by the way they live.

    What if I told you that the truest home, the ultimate mansion, awaits us not on a hilltop in this world, but in the loving embrace of our Savior, Jesus Christ?

    Introduction: Let me start you with a humor: "Have you ever noticed how mansions have so many rooms that some of them seem to forget their purpose? You walk in, and there's a room full of random items, like exercise equipment, unused musical instruments, and a treadmill doubling as a ...read more

    How many people are there who reject Christianity without having the faintest notion what it is?

    Jesus attended the Sabbath service at his home synagogue in Nazareth, as he always did when he was home, and stood up when the time came for the Scripture. “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me,” said Jesus, “because he has anointed me to bring good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim release ...read more
