    Blessed is The Nation! It was the middle of a very unpopular war, a conflict noted for its shabby ideology and selfish ends. Besides which, it wasn’t going well. On the night of September 13 a man found himself sloshing around in a small boat. He was on a mission. He’d volunteered to take ...read more

    He told me that means the only thing they never discuss are the two most important things in life.

    Clergy Corner for 7-28-24 Today’s brief reading from St. Paul’s letter to the Ephesians has an exhortation from the writer’s heart, right from the deepest part of his conscience, mind and will. He calls himself “prisoner for the Lord,” so we think immediately of the end of his life, when he was ...read more

    Being salt and light mean being out there in the world, not pursuing a private spirituality.

    How many of you watch Survivor? I never have. I suppose I should, to be in touch with contemporary culture, in order to be able to speak to it... but it simply doesn’t appeal to me. I have plenty of reality in my own life, thank you, I like my down time to be somewhat more elevated - to coin a ...read more

     | 14,208 views

    A sermon about how America has been blessed, why it has been blessed, and what we as citizens, are supposed to do to keep our nation blessed.

    America has enjoyed an abundance never before known among nations. And make no mistake; the things we have had were blessings … blessings from our Heavenly Father. They did not come by man’s hands, nor did they “just happen that way.” Since yesterday was Independence Day, I think it only ...read more

    Who Cares? Series

     | 2,280 views

    Has our prosperity made us so oblivious and so apathetic that we are no longer willing to leave our pleasures long enough to protect and heal the nation that so many others have sacrificed to give us? Even if America has reached that point, we Christians must rise above the apathy around us.

    [NOTE: The beginning of this sermon is referring to flooding that occurred where I live in western North Carolina.} Wow! What a week, amen? Life can come at you from out of nowhere and turn on a dime, can’t it? Last Sunday we gathered here to worship and had no idea how our little corner of ...read more

    I believe today that America and the Church in America is at a Crossroad, and it is up to each and every one of us here to decide whether it’s time to “stand down” or “stand up”! I believe it’s time to stand up!

    The past couple weeks, I have heard a term more and more that to be quite honest with you, as a person who has not served a day in the military, hadn’t heard the term, and even when I did, I was a bit unsure what it meant. Here is the meaning of the term STAND DOWN: A relaxation from a state ...read more
