Just as a body has many parts, each with a role to play, so it is with the body of Christ. We need each other, and when we come together, we are stronger than any individual part.

But when you put them all together, they create a beautiful picture. Now, what if all the pieces were the same? You'd just have a boring, blank puzzle. It's ...read more

Go Forward: The Exodus Path Of The Christian Life

Contributed by Joshua Blackmon on Nov 29, 2025

The Exodus story holds a mirror up to us and reminds us that we all tend to default to our learned anxious reactivity when challenged. In the Exodus, God shows us that if we will trust him and move forward, we will inherit the promises of God.

Dangerously Christian Series

Contributed by Keith Manry on Jun 12, 2003

This sermon was preached on Pentecost Sunday and challenges the church to become "Dangerously Christian!" (Len’s Sweet’s phrase).
