  • A Head Table Mentality Series

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 26, 2022
    based on 2 ratings
     | 3,995 views

    A leader is not automatically the honored guest. He or she must take the lowest seat at the table and learn to serve others. Only then, will Jesus move that person higher. If someone grabs the best seat, he or she will be moved lower.

    This evening’s message is entitled “A Head Table Mentality,” and it’s taken from a parable that discusses the valued position of the meek and lowly. This parable promotes Christ-like leadership over the worldly model of leadership in which power and control seems to be the normal style. Kenneth ...read more

  • Are You The King Of The Jews?

    Contributed by Paul Green on Nov 27, 2021
    based on 1 rating
     | 3,593 views

    Jesus was the King who never looked like a King, the King who never acted like a king – at least not in the way the world understands royalty. He came the first time, 2000 years ago, as the servant king, and he is coming again, in power and in glory, as the king over all kings.

    Today is the last Sunday of the Christian year, traditionally recognised as ‘The Feast of Christ the King’. Next week is Advent - the start of a new Christian year, but today we conclude the old ecclesiastical year with a proclamation of the kingship of Christ. ‘The Feast of Christ the King’ is a ...read more

    So many today are living for themselves and for their honor and glory. Paul teaches, “For to me, to live is Christ and to die is gain". We need to understand that life is never about us, but about Jesus!

  • The Love Of God

    Contributed by Scott Sutton on Aug 22, 2022
     | 5,578 views

    The fairy tale ‘Beauty and the Beast’ was not original with Walt Disney. In fact, there are similar fairy tales that go back 4000 years! But it wasn't written into story form by a French Novelist until 1740.

    The story and eventual plays and movies that were made about it drew the attention of theologian G. K. Chesterton. This is what he said about it; “The great lesson of the tale of “Beauty and the Beast” is that a thing must be loved before it is loveable. A person must be loved before that person ...read more

  • A Branch On The Tree.

    based on 1 rating
     | 1,181 views

    Israel could not produce the type of fruit that God had intended because they tried to produce it on their own- and not God’s way. God expected to find peace, but instead He found bloodshed; He expected to find justice but instead He heard cries of oppression.

    A Branch On The Tree. Charlie Brown, “Snoopy some day we will all die.” And Snoopy says, “True, but on all the other days we will not.” Here's my addendum, -The believer never dies! The grapevine has always been central to Israel’s agriculture and economy and was an important symbol for ...read more

    Shortly before welcoming a new minister, a seasoned minister and friend of the congregation might come and help prepare the church for this new chapter in their history, explaining the role of ministry and how to care for their pastor.

    It will be exciting to welcome your new Pastor! How you view pastoral ministry has been influenced by all the ministers you’ve known.
