The Reality Of His Birth

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Dec 4, 2016

As we prepare for Christmas, we must not be guilty of leaving Jesus in the manger. While I am thankful for His birth in Bethlehem, I also rejoice for Calvary. Jesus came with purpose - to die for our sin and reconcile us to God. He was born to die.

Jesus Always Follows "Kingdom Rules” Series

Contributed by Barry O Johnson on May 9, 2017

This is the third message in the series on Faith. There are rules that govern how we are to live in the kingdom of God and they should be – no, must be – the foundation for how we think and how we make decisions.

Growing in faith is a process. Sometimes I think we forget that. When we accept Jesus as our Lord and Savior, we are born into a kingdom that we know very little about. That’s why we must grow in our knowledge and understanding of “kingdom rules” if we are to properly live and function in our new ...read more

Detained, But Not Defeated Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Apr 9, 2017

With Peter in prison, the church prayed continually for his release. When God answered their prayers, they lacked faith to believe. We can overcome in Christ, but we must possess faith to believe the Lord will provide.
