I don’t wanna grow up, ‘cause baby if I did, I wouldn’t be a Toys R Us kid. I’m not exactly sure how I still ...read more

    You Make Pizza, One Layer At A Time

    Contributed by James Kirkland on Jan 28, 2009
     | 5,063 views

    Our spiritual life must grow as we grow in the Lord. You don’t start with a finished pizza, you must continue to add each layer until you put it in the oven.

    You make Pizza, one layer at a time. Pizza, what a topic to preach about? I suppose that the only real connection we have with pizza and the church is that pizza came from Italy and Paul’s preaching took him to Italy. That is a pretty far stretch, or is it? Ancient Greeks ate flat, baked bread with ...read more

     | 3,380 views

    This message seeks to answer why people can hear the same message but respond in opposite ways.

    Although I have been a Christian for thirty plus years there are still so many things that puzzle me. How can people hear the life changing message of Jesus Christ and refuse to accept it? Why do people not jump at the chance to have all their sins taken away? However the biggest issue that puzzles ...read more
