    There is no greater love than the love Jesus gives us. There is no greater peace in our hearts when we "know" this love.

    Do you share God’s love with others?

    Stagnant Pond or Flowing Waters? I wonder why it’s such a compliment to tell a woman she looks like a breath of spring, but not to tell her she looks like the end of hard winter. Isn’t that the same thing? I wonder why it pleases her to say time stands still when you look into her ...read more

    “Beloved, let us love one another, for love is of God; and everyone who loves is born of God and knows God. He who does not love does not know God, for God is love” 1 John 4:7-8.

    Theme: The Spirit of God’s love in the Church Text: Acts 10:44-48; 1 Jn. 4:7-10; Jn. 15:9-17 The Scriptures take it for granted that God exists. It begins with the words “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth”. Creation declares that there must be a Creator. Philosophers and ...read more

    Each of us is called to present the love of GOD to a world that is suffering with a void in their lives. Each of us is called to carry forth the love of GOD to HIS creation. Is your life all about you or is it all about HIM?

It might be safe to say that this may be the least preached upon scripture in the Bible. It seems at first glance, to be a nice gesture but of little ...read more

    This sermon looks at the relationship between Jesus, as the Vine, God as the gardener, us as the branches, and the fruit that the gardener desires to grow on the branches.

    Introduction This is one of The great passages of the gospels. It’s also one of the last teaching sessions that Jesus, Rabbi and Messiah gives to his disciples. As we look at the passage today, I’d like us to consider 4 points:- 1. Jesus, as the Vine; 2. God the Father, as the Gardener; ...read more
