    Highlight the importance and power of gentleness as a Christian virtue, and to encourage believers to embody and display this gentleness, as exemplified by Jesus, in their daily lives.

    Good morning, brothers and sisters. The Bible has much to say about the power of gentleness, the benefits of being gentle, and imitating Jesus' gentleness.

    Time for the ‘Body of Christ’ to wake up from the slumber and get going by restoring the shattered walls and foundations of the Church; being always alert of the enemy attacks, positioning ourselves firmly in God’s Word and building a lifestyle of prayer.

    Opening illustration: The 4,000-mile-long Great Wall of China was built to keep invaders from the north. The first wall was constructed by Shi Huangdi, the first emperor of China, who lived between 259 – 210 BC. But in AD 1644 the Manchus broke through the Great Wall and overran China. They ...read more

    This sermon deals with some of the reasons we fail to draw close to God and the virtues of being close to God.

    How close is close enough? Closer Zeno’s paradox. Imagine I had high school boys and girls lined up at opposite ends of the gym and had them half the distance between them every 10 seconds, how long would it be before they are touching? Well, if I always half the distance, they will never ...read more

    This sermon, designed for Father's Day, addresses two components I wish I would have known before I became a dad myself. Two simple principles that can be easily applied to a father of any age and includes material for men, women, and various life stages.

    There is no script or instruction manual, for being a good father. Most men are thrust into the task of fatherhood that will change how we view our earthly father, Heavenly Father, and even ourselves forever. It is an adventure that will challenge us, drain us, beat us up, lending us to a few ...read more
