    This sermon is written in honor of Black History Month. Not only do we look at how important our history is, but we are also challenged to look at how we as black/African Americans have always been central to God’s story.

    What About His-story? Back in the days of steam ships, only rich white people sailed at sea. One day while sailing, something suddenly happened to the ship and it was about to sink. Terrified, the white folks aboard didn’t know what to do. Someone suggested that they do what the black folks ...read more

    These proverbs give us helpful instruction for traveling the road of life which we must all travel along.

    Introduction The Road goes ever on and on Down from the door where it began. Now far ahead the Road has gone, And I must follow, if I can, Pursuing it with weary feet, Until it joins some larger way, Where many paths and errands meet. And whither then? I cannot say. “That sounds like a ...read more

    if we’re going to find fulfillment, peace, or satisfaction, it’s by aligning ourselves with God’s purposes and living intentionally that way.

    Goal Line Stands Philippians 3:10-16 October 7, 2007 I believe the apostle Paul would have been one of the biggest fans of ESPN if it was around in the days of the early church.

    While the cost of discipleship is 100% commitment 100% of the time, the outworking of that commitment will differ from one person to the next.

Whether you are the pastor or a missionary or just the guy who gives out the hymn books each meeting, the cost of following Jesus is the same for us all. And from the Scriptures we ...read more

    How Do We Run The Race When We Can’t Run?

    Contributed by Warner Pidgeon on Dec 24, 2012
     | 5,351 views

    This talk was from early December 2012 as feedback from my Sabbatical. The question in my mind was, "How do we run the race when we can’t run?" I spent time talking to and reading books by people with various impairments. This is some of what I learned.

    For the purposes of this morning I’m going to assume that none of you knows about the illness that left me almost bed ridden for 7 months back in 2008. I’ve only met some of you recently and so that seems to be the best way to proceed. When I visited Kenya recently I said, “I have 1 wife and 3 ...read more
