    God Abides In Small Places

    When trying to start a new church, we often think we should send church planters to the largest populated areas. However, both John the Baptist and Jesus preached in the wilderness, and people came to them where they were!

    I have entitled our message for this evening, “God Abides in Small Places.” Abide means, to dwell and to continue in a place. The Lord can be found abiding – and alive and well – in small places; and it is very important for us to be reminded of this fact because of America’s belief that “bigger ...read more

    Membership in a local church isn't about having your name on the membership rolls, but about being an active participant as a part of the body of believers. Each member of the body must function effectively within the body for God to use us as He would.

    This message was preached for our "Pack Your Pew" Sunday with the emphasis of why coming/going to church was important. One of my emphases was that coming here is not nearly as important as going somewhere.

    PACK YOUR PEW Why Do I Need To Go To Church Anyway? Hebrews 10:25 OPENING ILLUSTRATION: This story deals with a rather old fashioned lady, who was planning a couple of weeks vacation in Florida.

    How does Jesus picture His Church? A Church trying to “hold on?" Intimidated?Struggling with worldliness? Struggling to stay alive? NO! Rather, a Victorious Conquering Church!

    There are many opinions about "church membership", but what does Scripture say? If we are to grow in spiritual maturity, we must be connected in a local body of believers.

    In our basic training, we have studied salvation, the church, surrender and lordship. Today, we move our study toward the expectations and responsibilities of those who have been saved and are surrendered to the lordship of Jesus Christ. You can get a membership to just about anything if you are ...read more

    One of the saddest things that can happen in a congregation is when people begin to fight each other instead working together. Instead of being focused on our mission, we’re too busy bickering and fighting with each other.

    Today we finish our series through Paul’s Letter to Titus. I pray that these messages have blessed you but I also pray that they have challenged you – challenged you to grow in your walk with Christ and challenged our church to grow in depth and number. Turn in your Bibles to ...read more

    The early church’s response to an internal problem teaches the contemporary church some valuable lessons.

    * The dramatic growth of the early church: last count (4:4) around 5,000 men (probably around 20,000 total) * Such growth led to a “good” problem: many more needed to be ministered to than there were people to minister * The 12 did not have the ability to both effectively deliver the Word and ...read more
