    Are you ready to leave 2020 behind for good? As much as we'd like to cut COVID off and put it behind us, we won't be able to quite yet. But there are other things that we can break free from. But if we're going to do it the right way we'll need to burn the ships.

    BURN THE SHIPS As we get ready to go into 2021, I'm sure everyone is ready to leave 2020 behind for good. Unfortunately, 2021 doesn't look like it's going to be much of a fresh start; we're still dealing with COVID in a major way. So it looks like we won't be able to get rid of ...read more

     | 18,481 views

    The word “impossible” means nothing to God! The birth of a baby born to a virgin was a miracle! The Lord can also miraculously bring light to a dark situation. “Never doubt in the dark, what God spoke while you were in the light.”

    I’ve entitled our message this morning, “Nothing Is Impossible,” as we briefly touch on the account of how baby Jesus was born to the Virgin Mary. I would like to begin with some inspirational quotes and illustrations; and I’ll start by sharing one entitled “Impossible Takes Longer.” Charles F. ...read more

    Like Israel, out of gratitude for His amazing grace toward us, we need to be committed to His house.

    Your World - Own It! Series

    Contributed by G W Bill Elliott Jr on May 10, 2020
     | 3,050 views

    The garden was given to man as a ‘rectangle of control’; a world in which were rules, guidelines, and established systems. Man was placed there to ‘dress it’ and care for it. Man was given full and direct charge over that garden and EVERYTHING in it.

    To own something is to acknowledge it as belonging to one’s self; recognized as having full claim, authority, power, dominion… even to have or hold as one’s own; to possess. Now… how one came about the ownership does not change the ownership, itself. Don’t let the two intertwine, for now. The ...read more

Salvation runs on two tracks, and each is just as important as the other. 1. The first is this: a. The redemption that is in Christ. b. The fact that Jesus ...read more
