    To provide listeners with hope that their 2009 could be better than 2008.

    I don’t know about you, but I’m kind of glad that 2008 is over. 2008 had its up and downs didn’t it? And for many it ended like the DOW, down from where it was the year before. The year didn’t go as planned. The dreams we made didn’t materialize, 401’s fizzled, houses didn’t sell, loved one’s ...read more

    This is an expository sermon that teaches how to develop Christian character by abiding in Christ from The Exchanged Life perspective.

    It’s my hope to help you be prepared to crack the character code in the message this morning. Paul in writing to the Christians at Colossae revealed the key to cracking the character code in chapter 3:12-14. It is summarized for us in the very first phrase of v.12 when he says . . . The NASB ...read more

    Introduction One of the greatest experiences we can ever have is to get along with one another.

    Flying United Series

    Contributed by Blake Inscore on Sep 1, 2008

    I think we all realize that we are “supposed” to love another, and that we “should” be united, but what we are “supposed” to do or “should” do are not the same things as what we actually do.

    Introduction: Today we are beginning a series of messages on the importance of love and unity in the Church. The catch phrase which we put out on the marquee this week is: We Fly United and We Love It! We are going to use similar themes each week to challenge us as a church to examine our ...read more

    The thought that occurred to me this week is that we as believers are often satisfied flying “coach” when our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ died and rose again to offer us a “first class” ticket.

    Introduction: Today we are continuing our series of messages on the importance of love and unity in the Church. When we began two weeks ago we saw that the key to unity within the Body of Christ is love. That is why Paul said in Colossians 3:14—“Above all, put on love—the perfect bond of unity.” ...read more
