God’s desire is that this latter day’s church would be greater in glory and power than the church was in the book of Acts. It’s time to contend for a fresh outpouring of the Holy Spirit in our midst today, and pray for revival.

Where is the deal if being a Christian requires choosing tomorrow’s promises over today’s values?
As you know, last we began a message series entitled, “Jesus TV.” JTV is an imaginary cable network of programs which mimic current and former hit shows by using their names to explain biblical truth. This week’s show is, “Let’s Make A Deal!” How many of your remember the show? The show was ...read more
Scripture: Mark 8:31-38
Any ability or talent or appearance or power or fame we receive is entirely derivative-an expression of His goodness imputed to us for a short while. Satan wanted worship for himself. Saints seek to bring worship to their God.

God meets us in our weakness with compassion, removes our sins with mercy, and surrounds us with steadfast, everlasting love.
Welcome, friend. Maybe you walked in today with a tired heart—a calendar full of commitments, a mind full of worries, and a soul that keeps replaying yesterday’s mistakes. Grace can feel like a foreign language when guilt is loud. Mercy can seem far away when shame sits close. But hear this: you ...read more

The Christmas story juxtaposes the powerlessness of the human actors with the great saving power of God revealed in the birth of his only Son Jesus Christ.
It’s a terrible thing to feel like your life’s out of your control. Like you’re no longer the master of our own fate. To feel powerless.
