The funeral home called and asked if I would perform the service since I was the pastor of the church, where he was to be buried. I found out something very interesting about the man, as I spoke with the family members. It seems ...read more

    Apologize for Jesus 1) Describe his help. 2) Declare your hope.

    Has anyone ever had to apologize for you? Maybe it was the time when you put a frog in your teacher’s desk at school. The prank got a few laughs when the frog jumped out causing your teacher to scream, but it also earned you a trip to the principal’s office. That was followed by a call ...read more

    Jesus And Peter Series

    Contributed by Michael Mccartney on Jun 5, 2014
     | 9,405 views

    If we learn from Peter – hear the straight talk of Jesus to Peter and to us we can avoid a lot of the pitfalls and mistakes Peter made. If we yield to the straight talk of Jesus – listen – repent – change course then we too can make a difference for the Kingdom of Heaven.

    Theme: Let’s Talk Series 3: Straight Talk What is it? It’s like when your spouse asks if the new outfit makes her look fat and you say, “Yes, you look like you gained 30 pounds!” It’s like when your wife asks if you love her new haircut and you say, “No you ...read more

    In the beginning of the church when the original apostles were teaching and planting churches, including Paul, the New Testament as we have it today had yet to be compiled. The writers of the New Testament were all first generation Jesus followers and their work would not be complete until John ...read more

    Jesus The Struggler Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 5,461 views

    Sometimes we so emphasize that Jesus is the Son of God (fully divine) that we forget He is also the Son of Man (fully human). At Gethsemane, we see Jesus’ human nature struggling with the perfect will of God — for our sakes!

    Jesus the Struggler (Mark 14:32-42) 1. We all do goofy things. “Today, I took a picture of the combination to my new lock so I would always have it on my phone if I ever forgot it. I put my phone in my gym locker, locked it with the new lock, then promptly forgot the combination.” 2. ...read more
