    Most people call themselves Christians yet when measured and weighed by God’s biblical standards, they are badly found wanting and untrue to the definition of a genuine Christian!

    Christian Hope vs Death. A brief funeral message for a Christian. Change the name and you are good to go.

    Scripture tells us many things about the death of a Christian. Scripture does not gloss over the fact that death is a painful reality for us, nor does it tells us to pretend to be happy about the death of a loved one. We are expected to cry, have times of great sadness, mourn, and be at a loss when ...read more

    In the story of Jesus healing the paralytic, we see the love of the man’s friends and the love of Jesus coming breaking the rules in order to change lives.

    Matthew 9:2-7 “Love Breaks the Rules” INTRODUCTION What is love? Love is a popular word in the English language. Perhaps its popularity has led to its over use and its loss of meaning.

    What do you think is the greatest gift anyone can receive? It is the gift of eternal life.

    Who likes getting gifts? I certainly do. Let me ask you this. Is something a gift if you have to pay for it? If you have to pay for it or do something for it, it isn’t a gift. When someone gives you a gift, it doesn’t cost you anything. All you have to do is accept it. What is the one ...read more
