    Bearing each other’s burdens is a genuine expression of love and therefore fulfills the law of Christ.

    Introduction: A. I want to begin with a story I used several years ago from Max Lucado’s book, In The Eye Of The Storm (published in 1991). It is a story about a parakeet named Chippie. 1. Chippie the parakeet never saw it coming. One second he was peacefully perched in his cage, and the next he ...read more

    Deliverance. We talk about it. We ask for it. We demand it. We know we need it. However, deliverance is often accompanied by dilemmas! Are we willing to hold on for freedom?

    Deliverance Dilemmas Pt. 1 - Desperate I. Introduction The load has become too heavy! When a world has become siloed by sickness! The load has become too heavy! When a nation whose pledge boldly states that we believe in liberty and justice for all instead sees vigilantes (some wearing a uniform ...read more

    God gives rest for our souls by living up to our purpose in life.

    Series: It’s Backwards To Rest Take On Burdens Matthew 11:28-30 We use phrases everyday which do not mean what the literal words say. For instance if I say that I am all ears, I do not mean my entire body is made up of ears or that my ears are big enough that when you look at me that is ...read more

This might be one of those seasons of heavy burdens for you. Is there anybody out there that can ...read more

    No, I didn't actually tear up a Bible, but my audience didn't know that. Find out why I pretended to do that, and what that means to those who actually do tear pages from Scripture.

    Last week I said that we’re going to make one statement over and over throughout this series: We don’t have to APOLOGIZE for our faith. We don’t need to rally to God defense. Our God is bigger than we are – and doesn’t really need our help. But in spite of that… God calls us to contend for the ...read more

    Like many of the teachings of Jesus, the words He spoke did not really go along with the popular views of the day. Listen again to what he said…blessed are the meek…they will inherit the earth.

His ministry had its share of highs and lows but this was definitely one of his finer moments. In the background, Jesus had just gone through ...read more
