     | 10,307 views

    When you think of Old Testament shadows of Christ, Adam usually is not at the top of the list. This lesson shows why he should be near the top of your list.

    WHO AM I? My time on earth did not begin in a natural way. I had no earthly father. I was made in the image of God. I was innocent and without sin. In my innocence, I was tried and tempted by the serpent. I made an important decision which involved a tree that impacted all of history. My decision ...read more

    People don't always know that the life they want is in Jesus.

    Two sailboats slice through the waves of a vast sea. Both are seeking the shore. The crew of one vessel turns against the wind, thinking to find harbor in that direction. But, unknown to them, they are headed for a life-threatening storm, and their little craft will not survive. The crew of the ...read more

    In this world of fast-paced lives and ever-changing circumstances, we need stablity. God’s Word, truth, is always the same and is always relevant for all our needs. Luke 21:33 says that we can always depend on God’s Word.

    At the beginning of a New Year here are some rather interesting challenges we face. The past few weeks we’ve been looking at the idea of CHANGE… and the Challenges in our lives that those changes present. Two weeks ago we discussed that even though everything and everyone around us changes – ...read more

     | 7,925 views

    God’s plan for our lives is not always going to be exactly what we think. But God’s Plan will always be Perfect for us! God’s plan for our lives is not always an easy one. But it is a plan that will become a blessing to many if we will obey that call.

    God’s Perfect Plan? Scripture: John 1:6-8, 19-28 Scripture Reading: Matthew 1:18-25 There’s something special about Christmas pageants, even those in which everything seems to go wrong. I think you’ll like this story: A church tried to outdo the previous years Christmas pageants, so they ...read more

    In our service to the Lord, some things must always be borne in mind. Remember Jesus Christ is perhaps the most important truth to hold in mind for each Christian.

    What is the rapture? What has the church always believed about it?

    1. THE BASICS Let’s define what we are going to be discussing. 1. Rapture. What do we mean, first of all, by the term “rapture” ? In my opinion, the term itself, not found in the Bible, is part of the problem we are having to confront. By giving a new label to this portion of ...read more

    Jesus said the kingdom is near, yet often we don't sense God's closeness. This sermon looks at five places where we're likely to meet God.

    A GOOD QUESTION: Why don’t I sense God’s closeness more often? - Most of us can tell you about moments in our lives when we sensed God’s closeness. - One such moment for me was when the Holy Spirit spoke to me at 4 a.m. in Guangzhou, China. The presence of the Holy Spirit was so palpable and ...read more
