    I’ve entitled our message this morning, “Nothing Is Impossible,” as we briefly touch on the account of how baby Jesus was born to the Virgin Mary. I would like to begin with some inspirational quotes and illustrations; and I’ll start by sharing one entitled “Impossible Takes Longer.” Charles F. ...read more

  • Rolling Stone Series

    There are lots and lots of ways that we can put Jesus in a tomb and roll a stone over it, but there is no tomb strong enough, my friend, no stone too heavy that Jesus can’t smash it to pieces.

But when they come in on Easter morning, the stones are all gone.] [Read Luke 15:11-24.] You’ve ...read more

    Perhaps the toughest person to forgive is the unrepentant? More than that, why does God ask us to forgive the unrepentant when He doesn't? The Apostle Paul explains to us how we deal with such people in II Timothy 4:14-18 and Romans 12:17-21.

    This past week the famous and formerly beloved comedienne, Bill Cosby, has been on trial.

    There are only two possible ways you can approach God - with belief or unbelief. You either believe God, or you don’t believe him. You either put faith in Christ, or you don’t put faith in Christ. You only come to Him by faith in Jesus Christ, or you don’t come to Him at all.

    As most of you know, an eighteen-year-old young man took twenty-one lives at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, TX, on Tuesday. Nineteen of these lives were elementary-aged children.
