    The cross makes reconciliation possible. It brings us together as one nation, one body, and one building, so be hopeful, be healed and be holy in all your relationships.

    He Taught Them Many Parables… (The Closed Door) # 17

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 14, 2022
     | 1,531 views

    Notice, the Bible says in verse 22, “And he went through the cities and villages, teaching, and journeying toward Jerusalem.”

    In this verse of Scripture we find the Lord had two goals as He was traveling to Jerusalem. (1) His ultimate goal was to go to Jerusalem where He would die for the sins of mankind. Luke told us that in Luke 9:51. We read, “And it came to pass, when the time was come that he should be received up, ...read more

    What do you think would happen to you when you experience God's glory? How do you think your life will be radically changed once you grasp the glory of His grace?

    Last week, we spoke about “Following the King” from John 12:12-26. We spoke about Christ’s triumphal entry into our hearts, but then we spoke about going beyond simply thanking and worshiping Him for all He has done to taking steps of faith to follow Him. Following Jesus means no longer following ...read more

    Before The Beginning Series

    Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 12, 2021
     | 4,340 views

    Had God alone been there from the beginning, there would be no thing or no one for Him to love. But God was not alone. The Trinity, God the Father, God the Son, and God the Spirit were three in one. So God is relational before anything else.

    The Bible is a single story. It doesn’t appear to be one story. The Bible is a long book, written over 1,500 years and in numerous different genres. But if you look closely enough, you’ll find one cohesive story. It is one single story with unity and a compelling narrative. And we can summarize ...read more

    This sermon emphasizes the importance of the resurrection in our daily lives.

    The resurrection is the greatest theme in the biblical account. Every true born child of God should be deeply connected to the resurrection of Christ.
