When Mary pressed the soft warm cheeks of baby Jesus to her own, she was touching the face of God. When the shepherds and the wise men came to see Jesus they were seeing the face of God. Christmas is about the face of God.
John Mcgee Jr. wrote the poem High Flight. It is so meaningful to some pilots, they repeat it as they sit in their planes soaring though the skies. It goes like this- Oh, I have slipped the surly bonds of earth And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings; Sunward I've climbed, and ...read more
Scripture: 2 Corinthians 4:1-6
David was anointed as the king of Israel as a young man, and that would define his life for many years. He was a young king in exile. Because technically Saul was still king. But Saul had displeased God. And so God would slowly work in David’s life to bring him to the seat of the throne.
We’re going to examine the life of the one of the great historical figures, a man named David. If there’s one person I want to mimic in my devotion to Christ it’s David. He is the prime example from the Old Testament of a godly man, a man the Bible says, was a man after God’s own heart. There are ...read more
Scripture: 1 Samuel 16:11-13
To emphasize the importance of humbling ourselves, decreasing in our own importance, to allow God to increase in our lives, and how this surrender can positively impact our church and community.
Good morning, Church! Today's message is one of humility, of sacrifice, and of the power that lies within a church that lifts God high above all else. We're going to unwrap the profound truth hidden in John 3:30 which says, "He must increase, but I must decrease." It's about The Necessity of ...read more
Scripture: John 3:30
Topics: Lord Increase Decrease
God created everything before He creates man, so He can place man in a fully prepared and beautiful environment. All were created good for man. This is the love and grace of God.

Are we reluctant or willing when God commissions us? Jonah is a great study in God's heart verses our own when it comes to mercy and grace.
Join me in a look at Jonah. 2 Kings 14: 23 In the fifteenth year of Amaziah the son of Joash, king of Judah, Jeroboam the son of Joash, king of Israel, became king in Samaria, and reigned forty-one years. 24 And he did evil in the sight of the LORD; he did not depart from all the sins of Jeroboam ...read more

There is much more to God--who He is and what He is doing--than we can ever hope to grasp. God is His own category. God knows all about us…we can never know all there is to know of God.
Now that we’ve finished examining God’s attributes, we need to recognize that what we know about God still isn’t enough. There is much more to God--who He is and what He is doing--than we can ever hope to grasp. God is His own category. God knows all about us…we can never ...read more

What about when God does disappoint us, at least from our perspective? How do we manage that? How do we deal with that? How do we own up to the reality of our disappointment with God?
DISAPPOINTED BY GOD? JOB 36-40 "You have to be present to win," was a sign at a raffle at a retirement center in Florida. I like that sign because that is how ...read more
The desire for revenge and justice is part of being in God’s image. But, because sin corrupts us, and because our lives are intended to center around God, we must defer revenge (and sometimes justice) to Him.
Everything You Wanted to Know About Revenge But Never Thought You’d Hear in Church (Romans 12:14, 17-21) 1. Today’s sermon has little to do with the subject of forgiveness. 2. The Bible is clear that forgiveness is crucial to the Christian life; it is the hallmark of our faith. 3. Not long ...read more

In the culture of our text today two invitations were expected, the first to inform the guest that there was going to be a wedding, then the second was to let everyone know that everything was ready.

David's prayer is that God will hurry up and deliver him from persecution. However, his life also demonstrated submission to God by not taking matters into his own hands.
Psalm 70 As we begin, I want to advise you that this Psalm is a repetition, almost word for word, of the last part of Psalm 40. This theme was so important to David, he included it in two of his Psalms. VS. 1 Hurry Up, God! When we try to rush God’s Timing it is because we feel an ...read more
