    The Ethiopian Eunuch didn’t understand the Bible until someone explained it to him. The whole Bible points to Jesus’ life death and resurrection.

    In a few minutes we’ll say the creed, as we do most weeks, and we’ll repeat these words almost without thinking: "For our sake he was crucified under Pontius Pilate; he suffered death and was buried. On the third day he rose again - in accordance with the Scriptures." I wonder whether we ever stop ...read more

    This message tells of God’s forgiveness no matter what the sin. We will look at David and Saul of Tarsus.

    I have been a pastor for about 25 years. In this period of time, I have talked to many people who have said that they had sinned too much for God to forgive. Then you have the people who say, “ I just can’t forgive myself.” You would think as many churches that we have in America that we ...read more

Forty members of the famed Twelfth Legion of Rome’s imperial army serving in Sevaste, in present-day Turkey refused the emporer’s order. Their captain ...read more

    If we like Phillip, not get caught up in preaching the Word to masses, but go to one soul, it is worth it.

    1 SOUL IS WORTH IT Acts 8:1-8, 12-17 & 25-40 Today’s message is having to do with going after the one soul, the one life for Jesus.
