     | 3,941 views

    A personal story of my first few years in ministry. I tie it into the fact that when you are doing effective ministry you will have enemies. Just as Christ did.

    I was 21 when I first set foot in Connecticut Valley Seventh-Day-Adventist Church. I was nearly a month married, full of enthusiasm and excitement for the adventure of “real” life. Totally unprepared for the reality of it. I was well armed with a bevy of important and well-educated sounding ...read more

    WHEN WE ALL LOOK AT THE TRASH CAN OF OUR OWN MEMORY AND REALIZE THAT THE LORD HAS DONE A FINISH WORK THAT WE ALL SHOULD BE SHOUTING ABOUT A WORK THAT JUSTFIES OUR SINS AND SANTICFY OUR PRESENT

    The Forgotten Tree

    Contributed by John Gaston on Dec 15, 2021
     | 3,349 views

    The Christmas Tree has become the main symbol of Christmas; baby Jesus has little connection to it. God's Christmas Tree is the Cross of Calvary. God hung His gift on it -- His Son Jesus. I put up a 5-ft. cross with Christmas lights on it.

    THE FORGOTTEN TREE 1 Pet. 2:24 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. In one Dennis the Menace cartoon, Dennis rushes into the living room. His mother is standing there with her mouth open and Dennis is holding a large box. 2. He announces with a loud voice, “We’d better tell Santa Claus to forget about ...read more

    Paul tells us about the spiritual wardrobe that the Holy Spirit provides for us

    “What will we wear?” Back when I was first ordained, that was a question that many people asked themselves on a Sunday morning. In those days, people used to dress up for church. Tie straight, pants pressed, shoes polished… People would talk about putting on their Sunday best. By and large, that ...read more

    Living With(Out) Regret Series

    Contributed by Jeff Strite on Feb 24, 2022
    based on 4 ratings
     | 9,252 views

    We all have regrets, things we've done or have had done to us in the past. Paul describes two ways of dealing with these regrets- worldly and godly. Consider these thoughts from our Family Minister Scott Jewell on living without regret.

    Our current series is called “What Keeps You Up At Night?” We’ve explored anger/bitterness, concern for family, and today I want to talk about regret. It’s the idea of dealing with our mistakes/sins, whether real or perceived from our past. Personally, the concept takes me back to my ...read more

    Turn To God When You Need Revival Series

    Contributed by John Dobbs on Dec 1, 2021
     | 3,403 views

    To speak of revival implies that there is something lost, something dead, something about faith that has lost it’s liveliness. Ezekiel’s audience certainly knew about that.

    Week Three Series

    Contributed by Robert Butler on Mar 15, 2021
     | 2,467 views

    Self examination is not intended as a form of self punishment, but a redirection of our love to God for what He did for us through the cross. It’s meant as a guidepost to living like “little Christs” in this world so we can be a blessing to those who may never consider His saving grace.

    “Lent is one of the oldest observations on the Christian calendar. Like all Christian holy days and holidays, it has changed over the years, but its purpose has always been the same: self-examination and penitence, demonstrated by self-denial, in preparation for Easter.
