    We can look back to what God did for us in 2005, or ahead to what He wants to do for us in 2006. We can look both ways, but we can only step out one way ... and that should be in faith.

    Something happened a few hours ago. Something I believe each of us must come to terms with. What was it? The clock struck midnight, and in so doing, we had to say good-bye to one year, but we got to say hello to a brand new year. We go through this each year, but I am not sure just how much ...read more

    The 4 elements (strands) that make up the chord that gives us revival within our churches and in our hearts are - Giving - Prayer - Fasting- Communion

    I am going to dedicate 2006 to doing everything I can do to allow revival in this church and within the church body. It won’t be any old revival, either. It will be a revival for our Lord, Jesus Christ, and it will reach out into our community to do things this church has never seen before! But ...read more

    Short message delivered after a service of praise & worship through music.

    Let’s talk for just a minute on singing the songs of praise and worship. 1.

People have always congregated in groups to ...read more

    The 2nd in a series of building revival. This concerns importance of persistent prayer - in a life and in a church.

    Thank you, Lesley, for addressing us on such an important and Godly topic as prayer. And I thank you for being open enough to the Lord to have Him lay this upon your heart, and then your loving Him enough to act upon it.

    Do you remember the excitement you felt when it was time for you to get your driver’s license? You could barely wait to get behind the wheel and take off, right? But, before you could do that, there was something you needed to do. Do you remember what that was? You had to learn to ...read more

     | 3,452 views

    This sermon details the cause of America’s distance from God - all in a context of remembering: the fallen soldiers; our Godly forefathers, and of course, remembering Jesus, our Christ.

    Tomorrow, we will celebrate our nation’s Memorial Day. That is the day we set apart to honor those who have died in the defense of our great nation. Those who gave their all so that we could have it all. Those who made the ultimate sacrifice, so that we might not have to. As we look back into ...read more

    based on 23 ratings
     | 3,386 views

    Even at Christmas, we must remember that the coming judgment will deal with how we live our lives today.

    The skit that the youth ministry put on was superb! And the subject matter was very appropriate for Christians; "Judgment". This is the Christmas season, and I know it is traditional to only preach on the birth of Christ, but we must still remember something very important. The things that apply ...read more

    based on 114 ratings
     | 11,380 views

    We can get complacent when driving the same route every day and become oblivious to the dangers - and Christians can become so used to the manger we get complacent with the meaning of it.

    I heard the story once of a great Cherokee wood carver. He took logs and sat them on a stump outside his back door and sat in front of that log sometimes for hours just staring at it. Finally, he would pick up his carving tools and start carving the most beautiful of things out of the wood. He ...read more

    Is the Rapture, and the Second Coming reality to you, or is it just another story that you cannot really relate to? Each of us needs to make sure we fully understand this prophecy. Audio will be placed at www.sermonlist.com

    Most of us have been raised hearing about the return of Jesus. Among the earliest of my memories are those that deal with Jesus coming back.
