    God “desires all men to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth” (1 Timothy 2:4).

    1. Christians believe salvation is by faith alone and apart from works. Good works without faith in God will not save (Eph. 2:8-9). 2. Christians also believe faith that fails to produce good works is dead. Faith in God without good works will not save (James 2:14-26). 3. Paul, the great champion ...read more

    the Jews returned to their homeland in three waves and began to rebuild their city. but why rebuild the altar before the temple, or the city walls? because there focus was on putting God first!

    I’m going to spend a bit of time talking about some of Ezra chapter 3. About 70 years before the events in this chapter, Judah was invaded by the Babylonian Empire and the people exiled. God had let this happen because they had turned their backs on him. Since then the Babylonian Empire had ...read more

    Leaders must lead with truth instead of deception, with grace instead of power, and with unswerving commitment to the the least and the lost.

    Several things prompt this message. First and foremost, I bring this message because I know that it is crucial to teach and re-teach our church’s vision. Everyone needs to understand what we are trying to do as a church. Just saying it once or twice does not get the story told. I want to ...read more
