    INTRODUCTION As fathers and husbands, there is always something to do. And even if you get to doing everything, there always remains that simple aspect of spending time with your family.

    An invitation to a holy lent, speaking about the desire for revival, and recognizing that revival must be empowered by God, beginning with us (not them).

    Having grown up attending a church that had little to no emphasis on fasting, Ash Wednesday, or the season of Lent, I’ve grown to approach this season with anticipation and trepidation at the same time. I appreciate the recognition of the passage of time toward Good Friday and Easter. After all, ...read more

    3 of 4 on becoming Mighty Men of God. This message focuses on the call to service. It involves asking the men and women to respond to a survey taken during the message.

    Mighty Men of God We as men of God have been called to serve But our greatest fear is… failure. Our greatest desire is for significance. How we get that is different for men and women. For men it comes down to a very simple question. “Do you respect, admire and believe in me?” When I was a ...read more

    The Responsibility Of Elders In The Church

     | 4,631 views

    In the Scriptures, Pastors are referred to as "bishop, elder, and overseer." Why are they referred to in this way. In this message, Pastor Steve will examine these and more terms as he talks about the responsibility of elders in the church.

    We have completed our look at what elders are to be and now we’re looking at what elders are to do. In doing that, I would like to define the term that is found in 1 Timothy 3:1. It is the term translated "bishop." The term "bishop" is not a good translation because "it carries modern ...read more

    Communicating With God: How To Listen To God’s Voice One of the basic claims we have as Christians is that God is alive and He wants to have a relationship with us.

    We’ve spent a couple of weeks on the issues of knowledge, spiritual understanding and wisdom. Why is it so important that we have this knowledge?
