    Joshua pointed the way so tohers could live victoriously in the land God promised them. Should we not also do the same?

    Standing in the Crowd? Talk about vision Having vision/sense of purpose- important for people- it is a natural part of life, it gives us a sense of why we were created. When there is no vision/redemptive revelation of God people flounder, their lives lack purpose (Pr 29:18). As a church I want ...read more

    In this message we look at the Lord's prayer which follows the request from the disciples for Jesus to teach them to pray. All of us should learn to pray like Jesus.

    “Knocking on Heaven’s Door” Luke 11:1-13 When Jesus set out to call 12 men to follow him, He gathered them together and began mentoring them, discipling them so that they in turn would be able to continue the process. So when Jesus started teaching them, since this was the first ...read more

    The purpose of this sermon is to lay out some thoughts from the Biblical perspective and to encourage our congregation to find out where candidates stand on these vital issues and to take their beliefs into the voting booth with them.

    1 Corinthians 6:9-20 – please look this up in your Bibles. We will read this passage in a moment … Did you know that there is an election coming up? Did you know that there are more than two people running for office? When all of the mudslinging is set aside do you know what they ...read more

    Planning for our eternal future is now; today. We can still plan for our earthly future for a career, marriage, family and finances, but nothing could be more timely than securing our eternal destination.

    PLANNING FOR THE FUTURE…IT’S A GOOD THING. WE DO A LOT OF PLANNING: LIFE PLANS SUCH AS COLLEGE, MILITARY, CAREER, MARRIAGE, CHILDREN, FINANCES/SAVINGS. WE HAVE MANY ROUTINE PLANS: VACATION, BIRTHDAYS, ANNIVERSARIES AND HOLIDAYS. WE WANT TO MAKE SURE ALL OUR PLANS IN OUR FUTURE ARE WELL PREPARED FOR ...read more

    Christ The King

    Today on Christ the King we recall that the essential character of kingship means personal allegiance to one person. To say Christ is King implies that we are subjects.

    33B There’s a famous remark from a Modernist priest named Alfred Loisy: “Jesus came proclaiming the Kingdom, and what arrived was the Church.” Maybe his remark was a little like those T-shirts that say something like, “My parents went to the Grand Canyon and all I got was this lousy ...read more

One young blogger writes, Today, my mom tells my sister that she is worried about her because she has a headache and feels like she might be getting a slight cold.

    The Bible uses leaven to symbolize how both good and bad things grow in our lives. Let's put in the good leaven and leave out the bad, because either one can fill our lives.

It’s important for us to know the difference, so that we make sure that the good things in our lives grow and not the bad. Purpose: Let’s learn about the meaning of leaven in the Bible.

    Why do we bring up the bread and wine from the back of church at the offertory? What is heaven like? Does God prefer a big splash and fanfare or big results done quietly?

    What kind of people will be allowed to enter heaven? Those whose hearts are right with God! Those who have been changed on the inside by their encounters with the living God! Those whose lives reflect the character of Jesus!

    Clean Hands and Pure Hearts Context: Jesus has just warned of false teachers/prophets whose hearts would be revealed by the fruit in their lives.
