    based on 6 ratings
     | 11,110 views

    Michael Jordan said: “I play to win. And I will not let anything get in the way of me and my competitive enthusiasm to win.” How does this philosophy apply to our Christian lives?

    You've Got Wrath!

    Moses at Meribah is a prime example of James’ statement that "the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God.’ Moses let himself get distracted and apparently never really learned his lesson.

    Numbers 20:1-13 James tells us something very important in James 1:19-20 “Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath: For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God.” The New International Version replaces the word “wrath” with ...read more

     | 3,005 views

    This is part 2 in our series on James. We dove into how to deal with anger. Is anger ever okay? Why do we get angry? How do we handle it?

    I know many of you have seen the images on the news about what happened at Virginia Tech this past week. As I was watching, I thought, this really puts what we talk about last week to the test. Last week we started our series on the book of James and we looked at how we react to trials, ...read more

    Give up your dreams of a “pure church”. The reality is there will always be a mixture of true followers and hypocrites. Make sure you’re ready for the judgment day and get on with the work of being fruitful!

    INTRO: I’ve got a confession to make. I love Roundup. I love the feeling of just going around, spraying a little bit of poison and then in a few days seeing those weeds shrivel up and die! It’s so much more fun than actually pulling the weeds up! But, the problem with Roundup is it can be ...read more

    Growing Pains

     | 7,073 views

    The most successful trick Satan use’s, is to get us to question God about His actions. The words usually formed on our lips are “why am I experiencing such pain?”

    GROWING PAINS? Satan tries to undermine the Word of God and the importance of our faith in God. Eyes can’t always see what God is doing because most of what God does is in the spiritual realm. We can’t see the wind but we can see the results of it. Its very disturbing to think of the great ...read more

    Impatience With God Series

    based on 17 ratings
     | 30,285 views

    At times it is hard not to get impatient with God. It’s hard to wait for Him to move. But such impatience can cause us to act rashly and our rashness can cost us dearly.

    OPEN: Caitlin was a 4 year old and an only child. She really wanted to have a baby sister and kept pestering her mother asking when she could have one. One morning Caitlin told her mother, "Maybe if we both prayed out loud, God would hear us." So they prayed together. As soon as they finished, ...read more

    Life can get tough at times. The enemy is always trying to destroy us. Sometimes we need a fresh filling of Gods spirit. It empowers for life and mininstry. We can be overcomers.

    “Being a neighbor is not necessarily defined by seeking out those who need help, but rather it is becoming a person who is able to reach beyond themselves to help someone get back on track.”

    “The Unlikely Hero” I want to share a story about a man by the name of Karl Marx. (Has anyone here ever heard of him?) He is known as the father of Communism. He had one agenda and one agenda only and that was for communism to replace capitalism. Let me explain. Today, in ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 3,234 views

    Repentance is first an inward change, which then results in an outward change, and we get there as God puts to death all that is broken and sinful and evil, and then leads us through that death into what is next.
