    Philippians 3:1-6

    Philippians 3:1-6: The Point | Our joy comes from Jesus not circumstances. Paul appreciated his relationship with Jesus; perhaps this is because his relationship with Christ began when he (Paul) was at his worst. He did not deserve or could never earn the grace that God gave him. Yet, ...read more

    Verses 4:1-5 The Point | No matter what is going on in our lives, we have reason to rejoice because of our relationship with Jesus.

    On this 3rd Sunday of Advent, God speaks to our hearts about Christmas Peace. The Apostle Paul explained God’s peace as a “peace that surpasses all understanding.” But let’s take a few moments today and look at peace as presented to us in God’s Word.

    Today marks the 3rd week of Advent. Our Advent season began with us talking about Christmas HOPE. We learned that our HOPE is in the fact that our Savior has come. God showed us that the reality of Christmas is the fact that our Savior has come. The miracle of Christmas is also that our Savior ...read more

    It is a strange land when you try to whole on to joy and one another while your hearts are filled with grief. Yet be assured that God will not abandon us because we are in a strange land. There are some keys for thriving in a strange Land.

    Subject: The Blessing of Remembering Text: Psalm 137:1-6 “By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down, yea, we wept, when we remembered Zion.

     | 771 views

    Only as we include God and His Word can we have peace and hope. Psalm 116:15, “Precious in the sight of the Lord.”

    Paul spoke of our future home in 2 Corinthians 5:1-2, 6-8. Jesus spoke about our home in Heaven in John 14:1-6.

     | 449 views

    We're in week two of Advent, and today we're talking about PEACE! Not that fake peace the world tries to sell you. Not that temporary peace that falls apart when trouble comes. But that SUPERNATURAL, HEAVEN-SENT, CANT-NOBODY-TAKE-IT-AWAY PEACE that only Jesus can give!

    THE SHEPHERDS' STORY (Luke 2:8-14) Now let me take you back to that night—that HOLY NIGHT—when everything changed. There were shepherds out in the fields, doing what they always did—watching over their sheep through the long, dark night. These weren't fancy people. These weren't ...read more
