    Today we will discover that the non-Christian world was deeply disturbed and determined to do everything possible to halt the spread of the gospel. When things are going well in the Church-look out! Satan will find a way to create problems.

    Jesus Asks the question - what do you want od at least two groups. The thing is that the answers can be obvious so why does He ask?

    What do you want? Mark 10:35-52 A lot of you have been attending the “Terrific Tuesday” services and I wonder if you are feeling anything? I wonder if any of you are feeling any renewal of your vival. That is the intent of holding a series of special services. To receive a stirring of your ...read more

    Sometimes is seems we have forgotten how to show honor where honor is due. This sermon illustrates who and what we should honor.

    We have been searching for ways that we can become better ambassadors for Jesus. Two weeks ago, we discussed patience. Last week we discussed integrity. We discovered the Greek word for integrity had five definite traits. Integrity meant to be true. Our words should hold true. Our yes should mean ...read more

    Teaching Our Children The Way To Go. Series

    From the beginning, the family has played a critical role in the outworking of God's purposes on earth. As the fundamental building block of society, it was designed to provide the context for the nurture and training of each succeeding generation.

    The family was also designed to reflect and flesh out spiritual truth. Scripture uses the imagery of the family to speak of our relationship with God in Christ. As believers, we are adopted children in the household of God (Rom. 8:15-17). We are also heirs with Christ (Rom. 8:17; Eph. 1:11; 3:6). ...read more

    A "Priviledged Advantage"

     | 5,110 views

    In life most people that find an advantage and take advantage of it. And that's what doesn't make any sense...the fact that everyone can and should want to seek out and have a relationship with their creator, but so few nowadays choose too!

    A Privileged Advantage In life there have been times, when we have all faced uphill battles...when we are young and growing up all we can think about is being older… And when were older all we can think about is how much fun it was when we were young... No matter how hard life may seem at ...read more

    In a day where thousands are fleeing the church, no longer feeling it relevant. This message it meant to remind us that Jesus was against organized religion, but he is not against the church being decent and in order. In fact he created it that way.

    This mornings message is titled - “Jesus loves the organized Church” Now that might to some sound silly. Perhaps you would respond of course he does Pastor where his children, his joint heirs, his body. • That’s not the response that I believe God finds troubling, but there is a second response ...read more

    Don't Let Your Haters Get You Down

    It is a great mystery to me; I truly cannot understand how people with Jesus in their hearts can be so hateful and hurtful towards one another? How can they be so impatient and angry at each other? When that should love each other instead.

    6 And it came to pass as they came, when David was returned from the slaughter of the Philistine, that the women came out of all cities of Israel, singing and dancing, to meet King Saul, with tabrets, with joy, and with instruments of musick. 7 And the women answered one another as they played, and ...read more

    Are you willing to go the extra mile, knowing that the extra mile is never easy. What route do you take when life for you has become desperate? The woman with the issue of blood can teach us a lot about faith in the hardships of life.

    “For she said, “If I can just touch His robes, I’ll be made well!”  Introduction Are you willing to go the extreme to be with Jesus? That is the question I brought with me this morning, and this question is not just for you, it is for each and every one of us. Are ...read more

    This sermon address God's answer to the issue of playing the lottery.

    Introduction For many years I have wanted to address the issue of gambling, and specifically, the matter of playing the lottery.

    We should and can ask God for all we need

    We hardly need encouragement to ask for things. From birth to death from cradle to crypt our wants and needs drive us to obtain what we want or need. Some mistakenly think that we should not ask for things for ourselves because “it isn’t spiritual” (whatever that means). But hear this: * “Ask, ...read more
