    God’s grace is a free gift that is available to all of us. It is a free gift that we receive but it isn’t what we deserve. It is about mercy, not fairness. And, it is for the last as well as the first. Thankfully, what we can all say is, It’s about gr

    This sermon is for the occassion of an Historic Anniversary (150th) of the church, and remembers the pioneers who have gone before us; but also encourages the pioneers of this present day.

    One can almost imagine the first churches encounter with the beggar at the Beautiful Gate of the Temple. There were no Ministerial Alliance S.O.P.’s… No gas vouchers… no Confirmation Classes, nor was there an Evangelism Committee to carry out the year long planning… instead Peter and John found ...read more

    In a life filled with trials and storms, we must be certain we build upon the Rock. How can we be sure of our foundation?

    “Build Upon the Rock” As you may know, hurricane season is fast approaching, in fact it officially begins for us on June 1st. And I’m sure that because of names like Hazel, Fran, and Floyd, none of us here need be reminded that hurricanes are one of nature’s most destructive and ...read more
