     | 7,765 views

    We think of blessings as it relates to material things and riches. However, Psalm One talks about a blessed man (or woman) as defined by their relationship with God and His Word. This message examines who is truly blessed in God's eyes.

     | 3,722 views

    Has God ever told you to deliver a message to someone but when you saw their face you became nervous about what you were supposed to say? This message is about how God directed Jeremiah to move beyond his fear of those he would be prophesying to.

    Be Not Afraid Of Their Faces Scripture: Jeremiah 1:4-8; 17-19; John 5:19, 30; 7:16 When I reflect on the messages that the Spirit has given me over the last few weeks, I can’t help but wonder what is He preparing us for?

    Wisdom of Solomon 1:12-15 and 2:23-24 I have to admit that the wisdom books are some of my favorite literature. I don’t know if our members have ever been introduced to the apocryphal/deuterocanoninical books, but if you’ve grown up in the Roman Catholic tradition, they are included in the Bibles ...read more
