    We can either spend our lives focused on the problems of life, or we can spend our time focusing on the Problem Solver. We can focus on what is wrong, or we can focus on the One who can make it right. Let's look at a Deacon and the legacy of love that he has left for us to remember.

    Acts 7:54-60 “Love like Jesus Loves” May 29, 2022 Intro: Beginning at Acts 6:8 through the close of this chapter, Luke records the ministry and martyr of Deacon Stephen.

    Of the four types of love, only one can be chosen -- Agape. God did this intentionally because Agape is the most powerful, and echoes the love He has for us.

    Last week we began our series on the L Word with lust, as an example of what love is not. That means that tonight we will begin to learn about what love is. But which love are we talking about? If that question doesn’t make sense, don’t worry -- you’re not alone. We only have one ...read more

    Love As I Have Loved

    People don’t naturally love with a 1 Corinthians 13 type love. To love like that, there must be a line of demarcation, a transition from casual to serious, there must be change of heart, you must be Born-Again. Love can transcend these artificial barriers that keep us separated from one another.

Maughmer, Jr. PRAYER SCRIPTURE: - John 13:31-35 “Therefore, when he was gone out, Jesus said, Now is the Son of man glorified, and God is glorified in him. If God be glorified in him, God shall also glorify him in himself, and shall straightway glorify ...read more
