People see you and they see a glimpse of Christ. • They can see hope, love, joy, and purpose in our lives, because Christ dwells in us. • WHO you are has a greater and longer lasting impact in ...read more

    It’s the 9th beatitude; the Christmas beatitude. We never hear it from Jesus’ lips but from Paul’s pen. What is it? It’s Acts 20:35!

    This past week my wife Nicole and I were out finishing some last minute Christmas shopping. I was driving and she was riding in the passenger seat.

For starters, it’s an emotional one because this is the last time I will preach to you from this pulpit as your Pastor. If ...read more
