    On Good Friday, all hope was lost. Yet, Easter Sunday brought hope, forgiveness, and life to all who would choose Jesus as Lord. He is risen, and he rises us to new life as well!

    Luke 24:1-12 The Beginning Nature’s seasons remind us of the seasons of life. There is spring, where new growth is popping up out of the earth. The wild flowers are so pretty this time of year in South Texas. There is summer, and later fall, which here is like a slightly milder form of summer. ...read more

    Retaining The Childlike Wonder Of Christmas Series

    Contributed by C. Philip Green on Dec 7, 2021
     | 3,303 views

    To grow old and still retain the joy and wonder of a child at Christmas, with God’s help, quit complaining about your own problems. Instead, celebrate what God has done in sending us His Son, and share it with as many people as you can.

    A little girl came home from Sunday school waving a paper for her mother to see. “Look Mommy,” she exclaimed, “Teacher says I drew the most unusual Christmas picture she ever saw!” Her mother took one look and had to agree with the teacher. Hoping her daughter could explain her creation, the ...read more

    Why Jesus Had To Suffer Series

    Contributed by Scott Maze on May 1, 2024
     | 1,261 views

    For Jesus to be the “the Lamb of God” meant the Messiah HAD TO suffer. Yet, to think that the Messiah would suffer was as preposterous as thinking you could swim across the Atlantic.

    Our series is devoted to enabling you to place your faith in the Lord Jesus. I invite you to find John 1 with me. Remember, John’s gospel was written in order that you would believe in Jesus Christ. That you would trust in Jesus. The word “believe” appears more than seventy times throughout the ...read more

    Jesus DIED to save us, but he SUFFERED to HEAL us. This message examines five ways we are healed by his suffering, according to Isa 53.

    4 Surely He has borne our griefs and carried our sorrows; yet we esteemed Him stricken, smitten by God, and afflicted. 5 But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities; the chastisement for our peace was upon Him, and by His stripes we are healed.

    I Just Need A Little Help: Will Jesus just fix my problem. . . and leave the rest of my life alone? - Often when people call on God, they’re not looking to make a big change. They just need a little help with a problem. - They’re not looking to put God first in everything; they just ...read more

    We are in a spiritual fight, and we need to recognize that we have the necessary tools and forces to not give up, but to go to the last round where Jesus Christ will be the final victor, and peace, truth, and justice will prevail.

    Mark 9:38-50 “Just Let Jesus” Many of you are familiar with the blockbuster movie Rocky, in which a very muscular, physically fit, local Philadelphia guy, Rocky Balboa, fights the world’s heavy weight boxing champion Apollo Creed.

    Faith’s Essential Content Series

    Contributed by Richard Tow on Jun 3, 2024
     | 1,182 views

    Romans 4:23-25 provides a concise statement of the Christian faith: Lordship of Christ, his sacrificial death on the cross, and his resurrection. Salvation depends on believing these essentials. Religions that proclaim Jesus as a good teacher or prophet but deny these tenets are false religions.

    Intro We have been examining Abrham’s faith as a model for the kind of faith God is looking for in you and me. Abraham’s faith was a saving faith. After describing his faith, Paul says in Romans 4:22: “And therefore ‘it was accounted to him for righteousness.’” Paul has grounded his teaching on the ...read more
