     | 4,179 views

    God loves you and wants to see you thriving and flourishing as a follower of Jesus! He goes to great lengths to keep us growing and moving forward in our faith.

    Heart, Home, and Hands Intro: As we get ready for the year 2014 to move on in, this is a good time to stop and reflect on where we’ve been, where we are, and where we might be headed.

    The Jesus That Always Was Series

    Only a Messiah who was truly God could save humanity.

    Harry Reasoner, one Christmas years ago, gave the following closing to 60 minutes [God would become a baby.] It is a startling idea, of course. My guess is that the whole story that a virgin was selected by God to bear His Son ... is not an idea that has been popular with theologians. It's a ...read more

    What did Jesus mean when He said, "It is finished" on the cross? What was finished? The crucifixion? His life on earth? Or, the plan of salvation?

    Our quarterly memory Scripture: 2 Timothy 2:11-13 “Here is a trustworthy saying: If we died with Him, we will also live with Him; if we endure, we will also reign with Him. If we disown Him, He will also disown us; if we are faithless, He remains faithful, for He cannot disown Himself.” Our ...read more

    The Lifting Up Of Smoke

    Contributed by Greg Irby on Jun 15, 2013
     | 4,840 views

    In the Bible, we find wickedness compared to a fire. We understand the analogy. Isaiah used such a comparison. The same fires which destroyed Israel may well be smoldering in our nation today

    THE LIFTING OF SMOKE ISAIAH 9 Text: Isaiah 9:18 Isaiah 9:18 18 For wickedness burneth as the fire: it shall devour the briers and thorns, and shall kindle in the thickets of the forest, and they shall mount up like the lifting up of smoke.

    Everyone loves a vacation! It's when we get away to relax. We only carry people on our vacation who we like to spend time with. Do we take a vacation with God or From God? A must answer question

    Decaf Christmas? Series

    Contributed by Chris Appleby on Feb 23, 2015
     | 5,497 views

    The reason we decaffeinate Christmas is because we don’t want Jesus intruding on our lives. Don’t want to admit that we need help. Little baby Jesus is OK, but he’d better not get out of the manger.

    This week a number of articles have come out, commenting on the push to get Christ out of Christmas. The best I read called this the decaffeination of Christmas. Carols that are all about trees, snow, reindeer, not about a baby born in a manger. Why do we do this? For some the story of ...read more

    THE GOD OF THE BUSH Ex. 3:1-14 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. President Bush was going through an airport when he saw a man who looked like Moses. He asked him, "Are you Moses?"
