    There's a saying, "Freedom's never free." We live in the freest country in the world, but what do we do with that freedom. As the Church, are we seeking to be a blessing so that through us God can truly bless the USA?

    INTRODUCTION: In Lee Greenwood’s signature ultra-patriotic song “God Bless the USA” he says these words: If tomorrow all my things were gone,I'd worked for all my life. And I had to start again,With just my children and my wife. I'd thank my lucky stars,To be livin' here ...read more

    We see the unfolding of God's will and the outworking of God's works in fulfilling His will. God raised Ezra, the man of God's Law, to bring about the next phrase of restoration - spiritual reformation and renewal.

    Finally, we have Ezra appearing in the book that bears his name. Chapter 7. • We ended chapter 6 with the completion and the dedication of the Temple of God, led by Zerubbabel and Jeshua, under the reign of Darius. • This was made possible because of the move of God (1) through the preaching ...read more

    This sermon explores how Isaac's story teaches us to persist against opposition, honor our spiritual heritage, and trust in God's provision during difficult times.

    As we gather here today, dear brothers and sisters in Christ, we find ourselves on the cusp of a story that is as old as time itself, yet as fresh and relevant as the morning dew. A story that weaves itself into the fabric of our lives, threading through our joys, our sorrows, our trials, and ...read more

    In an age where everything is geared towards "no-lines, no-waiting" and attacks from the enemy of our souls on every side. How do we gain our strength?

    I. The Greatness of God (vv. 25-26) God reminds us of His incomparableness. There is none like Him in all the universe. In Chapters 41-44 God speaks to the idiotic practice of idolatry.
