    Marriage is sacred and God-ordained. When a couple follow God’s blue-print for marriage, love and honor one another and set boundaries for the safety of their relationship, families become havens of love, support, health, peace, and abundance.

    We read in Philippians 4:8, "Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is commendable, if there is any excellence, if there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things." (ESV) The word of God ...read more

    We are called to belong, not just believe

    When we think of small groups and sharing, we somehow have this mental idea of a shallow conversation. [Show “Mixed Nuts” video[1]] Of course, we don’t like the opposite either. We don’t want complete strangers to approach us and then share their dark secrets. That would be scary! We also don’t ...read more

    “The Ultimate Glory-Moving together in one direction, purpose and toward one goal.”

    Paul, who is the writer of our text, challenges the Philippian church to press on in unity to become the best that they could be for Christ. Rather than be complacent with where they were, they needed to set their sights higher. As men and women of God who have different perspectives, needs, and ...read more

    Today we begin a new series based on the book of Philippians call, “Jesus, I’m just not feeling it.” The line itself is the number one breakup line between couples. It is also very appropriate for those in the church because a recent study (Reveal- willowcreek) reports that as many as 25% of the ...read more
