    This meeting was designed to confirm the faith of all his disciples about the certainty of his resurrection and commission them to continue His great work. Let's embrace our part in the work.

    Sermon: Embracing the Great Commission Scripture: Matthew 28:16-20 “Then the eleven disciples left for Galilee, going to the mountain where Jesus had told them to go. 17 When they saw him, they worshiped him—but some of them doubted! 18 Jesus came and told his disciples, “I have been given all ...read more

    This great church at Jerusalem is a God-given example of the characteristics necessary for a great church. I would suggest that each person read and meditate on the Acts chapter 4 to become intimately acquainted with God’s idea of a great church. I

    Great Is Thy Faithfulness

    We do not hear many sermons from the Book of Lamentations and I am not really sure why.

    But I feel that one of the reasons that I do not preach from the Book of Lamentations any more than I do is because the “Weeping Prophet” Jeremiah wrote it. Most folks enjoy spending their time with people who are laughing and having a good time, and we try to AVOID those who are always MOURNING ...read more

    The God Of Great Turnarounds Series

    Contributed by Duane Wente on May 22, 2023
     | 2,450 views

    The story of Esther and Mordecai is full of plot twists, unexpected outcomes, and surprise endings, all reminding us that we serve a God of great turnarounds. Do we have “Hamans” in our lives? From the story of Esther and Mordecai we can draw encouragement for our lives today.

    Introduction Video Ill.: The Story of Esther - Second Look Films (segment 4) We are continuing our study today based loosely on Max Lucado’s book, You Were Made for This Moment. When we started, we saw that Esther and Mordecai just wanted to blend in — to be cosy in the Persian culture. Don’t ...read more

    Greatness Through Servanthood Series

     | 2,331 views

    The Bible talks less about what makes a great leader than it does about what makes a great servant. What is it about God's leaders that requires them to be servants of others?

    Today we are putting a man's name into consideration as a future Elder. I hadn't actually planned a sermon on Eldership (the sermon series I'm preaching through is something I'm working with other preachers on) but the text seemed to be a good groundwork for understanding what ...read more

    Worship should be done in "Spirit and in Truth"... but what does that mean? How will I know when I've worshipped that way? And what difference would it make if didn't worship that way?
