    Fear, it's a little word but it has a big grip on so many people. In this 3 part series we're going to break the power of fear over our lives.

    The Origin Of Fear Last week we saw that fear put pressure on us to cave in and retreat.

Everyday ought to be a day of thanksgiving for what God does and has done in our lives. The greatest ...read more

    Over the years we have managed to lose sight of God’s plan for leadership in the church. In fact we have modeled the leadership structure of the church more after our nation’s government than the Biblical plan. Our leadership strategies have the tendency to look more like corporate America instead ...read more
