    Jesus does not need nor want an audience in order to heal. He heals to bring people into service. He cures death to bring us to new life today.

    This message shows us the power of real, unselfish service. It is a concept that has faded from today’s world.

    “Putting Your Best Foot Forward” Acts 5: 12-42 One of the things that has happened in our society across the years is that our concept of service has greatly changed. What we have seen is that real service has almost become a thing of the past and has been replaced by convenience. Some of you ...read more

    This message was preached following our spring revival services preached by Phil Lamaster. Phil did a great job. Everyone was moved. But the important thing is what happens following the great messages: getting busy about serving the Lord.
