    Using Nehemiah as an example, this is a message on the purpose of fasting and appropriate times to use this very special tool.

    Introduction It happened when I was rummaging through my dad’s tool box. Let me back up a moment to explain. As a child I would often “borrow” my dad’s tools without permission. And it wasn’t usually to use them for their intended purpose. You see, I had a very active imagination as a child ...read more

     | 12,162 views

    In order to find certainty in uncertain times, obey Christ as your sovereign, follow Christ as your servant, and trust Christ as your Savior.

    Certainty in Uncertainty (Mark 11:1-11) Some time ago, I came across an article from The Futurist magazine, which listed some of the worst predictions of all time. They are very interesting. For example: A Roman engineer, Julius Sextus Frontinus, in A.D. 100 said, “Inventions have long ...read more

    The Government Upon His Shoulders Series

    Contributed by Manny Salva Cruz on Dec 14, 2015
     | 9,803 views

    The weight and the heaviness of the world due to the damage of sin has been transferred upon his shoulders. Instead of us taking and carrying the heavy burden of the world upon our weak and painful shoulders, Christ will take the load off our backs.

    Please stand with me as we read together from Isaiah 9:6-7 (NIV) 6 For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. 7 Of the greatness of his ...read more

    This message looks at how various folks in the Christmas Story responded to what was happening.

    Last week we celebrated Christmas with our children’s presentation, which I’m sure Marilyn and her crew would testify is kind of like herding cats. And that was part of the process that led Charlie Brown to ask in frustration, “Isn’t there anyone who knows what Christmas is ...read more
