    Sadducees disagreed--with nearly everybody. They had their version of the Torah, much like the Samaritans. So the question must be asked; want to argue or be "all in" the service of our God?

    Message November 10, 2013 All In A man opens his eyes and realizes he’s in front of St. Peter at the pearly gates. Immediately St. Peter said, “It’s not so easy getting into heaven. There are some criteria to be met before entering. “For example,” Peter said, ...read more

    God desires to work miracles today for His people and the lost. Like rain, if the conditions are right, God still answers believing prayers with miracles. He usually uses people as His agents. Will you let Him use you?

    The Spirit's Role In Conversion Series

    Contributed by Jason Smith on Dec 2, 2013
     | 10,702 views

    The Holy Spirit has a vital role in our conversion. This lesson shows how the Spirit uses His sword to convict us and to bring us to repentance.

    We don’t think about the Holy Spirit’s role in our salvation enough. Whenever we think of the work of God saving us, we tend to think about Jesus' work on the cross, which is understandable. So much of the New Testament focuses on Jesus Christ and His atoning sacrifice for our sins. But ...read more

    Matt 5:48, Philippians 2:3-5, John 13:1-5; Luke 6:36; Peter 1:16 Imitating our earthly fathers is great, but not as great as imitating our Heavenly Father through perfect love, mercy, servanthood, and holiness.

    Introductory sermon in a series on the Book of James.

    If there is one thing we learned in the last five weeks as we spent some time going back to the basics of our faith, it is that our faith in Jesus is not just about what happens to me some day when my life here on earth ends.
