     | 5,714 views

    A look at the early church in Acts two to discover characteristics that should be true of a church we should want to be part of, a church that's headed the right direction.

    We’re concluding our series on the kind of church I want to be part of.

    Our labor bears fruits but the fruits are not worth eating. This sermon debunks the idea that the fruit of our labor is worth eating or enjoying. This is the first part of a two part sermon

For a married woman, who trusted and believed God for the fruit of the womb, getting pregnant and going into labor - though hard, it ...read more

     | 4,226 views

    The disciples had to learn, often the hard way, that following Jesus does not mean favoritism from Him. They had to learn that service towards God and others is to be done with a loving, gracious attitude and not with an ego.

    You have to admit that James and John thought a lot about their ability to serve the Lord Jesus. They wanted places of honor in the Kingdom of God without coming to grips with the hardship that follows everyone who gives their lives to Him. The disciples and all who would surrender their lives ...read more
