     | 6,239 views

    Our God is a God who saves; and He has done so in the person of Jesus Christ.

    On television or radio, it is not uncommon to hear a pitchman tell you that the particular opportunity to purchase whatever product he is promoting is “the greatest opportunity ever offered!” You know that isn’t the case, however, because you know that next week you will see the same product ...read more

    How does the baptism of Jesus relate to ours?

    The Baptism of Jesus Luke 3:15-22 The people had heard the apocalyptic message of John the Baptist. He had called the people to radical repentance, with baptism being a sign of that repentance. But more than an outward sign was needed. A sign is supposed to point to an inward reality. Repentance ...read more

    Growing With Jesus

    Jesus had to submit himself to his parents in order to grow up and mature in wisdom and understanding before he could step out into ministry. Should we not humble ourselves, submit to leaders over us and grow up spiritually, emptying ourselves of pride before we attempt to minister to others.

    Growing with Jesus Sunday, December 30, 2019 By Rev. James May From the time of Jesus’ birth to his appearance at the Jordan River to be baptized by John the Baptist, little is known about Jesus’ childhood and growing up. The only passage that tells us much of anything is found in the 2nd ...read more

    Stop fighting a battle that has already been won on the cross of Christ.

    VICTORY IN JESUS THIS MORNING, I AM GOING TO SPEND MUCH OF OUR TIME TOGETHER IN THE BOOK OF ROMANS.

    Jesus, The Teacher Series

    When Jesus taught, he did so in parables. Now this was not unique in Jesus’ day for most rabbis or teachers taught in parables. The Greek word for parable means “thrown along something else.” Parables are about comparisons.

    Jesus, the Teacher Mark 4:1-20 For the past several weeks, we’ve been looking at the Gospel of Mark through two questions: “Who is Jesus?” and “What meaning does he have for our lives?” We’ve learned that Jesus came to preach that the kingdom of God is near, he ...read more

    Like John the Baptist, God is calling and dispatching us to witness and testify to the way, the truth and the life in Christ Jesus.

    INTRO This morning, we’re going to turn back to the Gospel of John and dovetail with last week’s message. Last Sunday, we walked down the hallowed halls of Biblical history and gazed upon the portrait of grace embodied in Jesus Christ. We stared intently into the word of God, as the ...read more

    In the midst of the storms of life, Jesus will walk on the water of our problems and come to our rescue - if we will call on Him.

    Jesus to the Rescue Matthew 14:22-33 • The “World English Dictionary” defines rescue in this way; ‘to bring someone or something out of danger, harm, or attack…and to deliver or save.” This story is about rescue on many levels. • For several years I was a ...read more

    Too often we try to make Jesus fit our own desires. Instead of the real Jesus we want one that fits into our life neatly. That's a plastic Jesus.
