    If you are not teaching against false doctrine and naming names you are not using your sling to protect your flock from the wolves.

    Romans 16:17  Now I beseech you, brethren, mark them which cause divisions and offences contrary to the doctrine which ye have learned; and avoid them.

    Who's Using You?

    Contributed by Tom Fuller on Jun 13, 2011
     | 4,757 views

    How do respond when someone hurts you? Is it with veiled hatred and open contempt? The Apostle Paul had to deal with just such a situation and how he handled it can help us to deal with pain in a godly way.

    Sometimes the right thing to do is confront bad behavior or attitudes. As a leader there have been times when I have had to call someone on the carpet. It’s never easy and too often that person does not receive the exhortation or even rebuke well. As a leader, my job is to protect and nurture ...read more

    We are called to belong, not just believe

    When we think of small groups and sharing, we somehow have this mental idea of a shallow conversation. [Show “Mixed Nuts” video[1]] Of course, we don’t like the opposite either. We don’t want complete strangers to approach us and then share their dark secrets. That would be scary! We also don’t ...read more

    Jesus again repeats Himself in Matthew 25, and He tells us another parable to get us ready for the end times. He tells a different story with the same point. Will we get it this time?

    You know something is important when someone repeats it a second time. You can also know if something is important when they say the same thing again, but in a different way, so that if you didn’t get it the first time, you might get it the second time. It can be a technique that we can be quite ...read more

    If we are honest we can all admit to having moments like Peter when we want to turn back to the old life. Go back to fishing instead of living for Christ. But friend: that can never be for you or me.

    Jesus restores us John Chapter 21 Last week we celebrated Easter and how Jesus rose from the dead and how He presented himself to the men and women who followed him. Today we look at what is regarded as Jesus third appearance to the Disciples. It is a week later so it is another Sunday morning. ...read more

    This sermon looks at the events leading up to the rising of Jesus Christ!!

    There are three things you must notice that Jesus did before he rose from the grave. 1. First he ate with his disciples one more time before his death. So Jesus knew he was going to die. 2. Second Jesus was beaten not for his sins but for ours. Jesus took a beaten for something he did not even do ...read more
