    From the moment God asked Moses, "What’s in your hand," the life of Moses was never to be the same again. That simple shepherd’s staff was the tool by which God shook the foundations of mighty empire, but there was something Moses needed to do first. What

    This past week I got to wondering about a few things… for instance: 1. If you throw a cat out a car window, does it become cat litter? 2. When a cow laughs, does milk come out its nose? 3. Since a fool and his money are soon parted, how did that fool and his money get together in the first ...read more

    Every year the world shuts down on the 25th of December, but why? If it is just about gifts and family would this happen? This 3 part series looks into the real meaning of Christmas.

     | 8,619 views

    God by his grace has given believers the power to forgive others when they have offended us. How do we do that? Why do we bother?

    ?The Revolutionary Power of Forgiveness When the first missionaries came to Alberta, Canada, they were savagely opposed by a young chief of the Cree Indians named Maskepetoon. But he responded to the gospel and accepted Christ. Shortly afterward, a member of the Blackfoot tribe killed his father. ...read more

    Jesus taught about fasting as if it were something his listeners regularly did. It is assumed that we will practice fasting too. What are the mechanics of it and why should we do it?

    THINK “FAST”! You all broke something this morning. You may not know it but you did – you broke something. Some of us have night snack, while others don’t eat anything between supper and a certain meal the next morning. That time between eating in the evening and eating in the morning is actually ...read more

    Why do Christians wear a cross? What is its meaning to the church? In this message we are going to look at 4 images that will help us understand the place of the cross in the life of the believer.

    Illus. In Texas last week, an 18 year old man was arrested for wearing a noose in public. As Jewelry. Seems kind of morbid doesn’t it? A noose is an instrument of an agonizing death. It represents vigilante law, I would never be proud to wear a noose. What about an electric chair? Did you ...read more

    Jesus gave up His life! But what for? That’s what the disciple must have been thinking? For what? Why did He do all of this? Why did Jesus make us His disciples, teach us all that he taught us, and do all the things He did. For what? You see what i

    Throughout the gospels there is no record of Jesus ever directly telling any of his chosen disciples that he personally loved them. Yet, there was no question about His love for them, for He demonstrated it time and again. Now He asks the disciples to l

    As Jesus confronted the "false religious" on-goings in the Temple, we must ask if we are willing to confront sin, cast it out, and live a life devoted to Him? Or, will we allow our own desires and emotions to lead us?

    Before I get started in this sermon I have a little pop quiz for you that I would like for you to participate in. I will ask you three questions and immediately answer them with the first Word that comes to your mind.

    ARE YOU READY? 1: First question, “I said, Do it?. The answer? It’s probably the word “Now”. 2. “I want it?” What is the first word that came to your mind? It’s probably was the word “Now.” Not next week, not next month, not next year, not tomorrow, but now!” 3. In a common prayer we might ...read more

    God often teaches us through suffering. Why? Because in good times, we have a tendency to forget God. But adversity helps focus us on what is most important.

    You may be familiar with a story that’s been in the news recently [Bobby Knight allegedly choking one of his players]. My purpose this morning is not to take a position on whether or not he should be fired. What interests me is how some of the very people that this man supposedly abused are ...read more

    In this parable, you will find five reasons why people neglect the invitation to come to Christ. At first, we will look at the flimsy excuses given, and then we will lay open their hearts to the truth!
