     | 2,217 views

    Ever since the announcement of the angel to the shepherds announced that Jesus was good news of great joy, we have been singing about the “Joy” that Jesus brings.

    The Greatest Life of All -A Life of Joy- Luke 2:9-14 The angel of the Lord gave a reassuring word to the shepherds: “Don’t be afraid! I bring you good news of great joy for everyone!

    Life sometimes gives us lemons, Paul teaches us how to make lemonade from lives lemons.

    This morning we continue our study of Philippians. Last week we studied Philippians 1:1-10. Here we discovered a man who had every reason not to be happy, but yet he was filled with joy.

    This is the first sermon in a ten-part series on Philippians which introduces the background adn theme of the book and also the style of studying a New Testament letter.

This letter was written by Paul when he was in a Roman prison, very likely the last place he would be before his execution for being a Christian. It begins ...read more

     | 3,654 views

    A Christmas message. Most people have no problem getting up for Christmas but what about the day after? This message is based on Luke 2:20 from what I see as the shepherds return to "normal" after God has broken into their lives.

    "It's A Wonder-filled Life" Luke 2:20 "Then the shepherds returned, glorifying and praising God for all the things that they had heard and seen, as it was told them." Intro: Frank Capra's "It's a Wonderful Life" is, by far, my all time favorite Christmas movie. George Bailey finds out that even ...read more

    Being as sure of your salvation as we are of death itself.

    The raising of Lazarus John 11: 17-36 I think people have a hard time relating to the fact that Lazarus died and then was raised four days later simply because most people are unfamiliar with the concept of death in our society let alone a resurrection. There was a ...read more
