    The church is for far more than empty ceremony on occasions demanded by tradition; it is the steward of new life, with a rich and full experience that employs the diversity of gifts God has given it.

    Last week you seemed to get a big charge out of my little story about going to a wedding rehearsal and wasting time waiting for a key person to arrive.

    In the words of Bill Hybels, we are too busy NOT to spend time alone with God. It speaks to those who may have found their prayer time empty and why that may be.

    When the Son of Man ascended to Heaven he didn’t leave us empty-handed. He left us with all we need to be victorious in every fact of life.

    WHAT DID JESUS LEAVE FOR US? By Pastor Jim May I was somewhat amused this week with so many people who were concerned about the passing of the date 6/6/06. It never ceases to amaze me that people, who are supposed to know and understand the Word of God, are so superstitious, and so afraid, of ...read more

    This is the fourth in a series but can be used stand alone. It looks at the bright new morning that dawns to dispel the shadows of the cross. A stone rolled away, a tomb standing empty, and a promise fulfilled.

    Shadows of the Cross Pt 4 From the Shadows a New Day Dawns Luke 24:1-12 It was early dawn – the sun not yet above eastern horizon. Three women make their way quietly toward the tomb of Jesus. As they make their way down the road their eyes might have been called again to a hilltop called Golgotha ...read more

    When the ladies came to the empty tomb, the angel said, "You seek Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified." This statement begs us to answer this question, "Who or what is it that you seek?"

    Life’s Most Important Question Mark 16:1-8 • To read about the resurrection of Jesus is – well – just plain exciting. Jesus’ heart stopped bleeding, His blood stopped flowing, His human brain stopped working, & He was buried for THREE DAYS before HE CAME BACK TO LIFE ...read more

    Soul winning was Jesus' main mission, ends human emptiness, interrupts the cycle of sin, honors the suffering of Jesus, and is the only brief opportunity of helping people switch eternal destinations.

    Some of you have played Jenga with your family, right? You seek to pull piece after piece out without the tower collapsing. If Christianity were a Jenga tower, the resurrection is the one block that, when pulled, the tower comes crashing down every single time.

    Dead people stay dead.1 “Nobody goes to funerals and says, ‘What’s the over/under if this person comes alive again?’” I have yet to see one dead person come back to life. I doubt you have seen any dead person live again, either. Once people have gone down the road of death, they just don’t return.2 ...read more
