    Contributed by Pastor Charles Wilkins on Jul 23, 2024
     | 1,228 views

    Depending on how you chose to look at it, Life can be a glass half full or a glass half empty.

Some people describe that glass as half empty. Those are the pessimists. Others see that glass as being half full. They are ...read more

     | 1,429 views

    (Pastor's note: Pastor this is a message to help set the stage of the heart for deeper worship.) Worship only happens when the gratitude inside pours out.

    “Give Thanks” How do you put Christ at the center of your worship? One sure way to enjoy worship every time, be it private or the corporate experience, is to make sure that worship is actually happening. Many try to chase connection with God but miss it because they don’t know the key factor of ...read more

    How much do you really love Jesus?

    Will You Die For Christ? Last week, we celebrated our liberty mostly by consuming large quantities of BBQ, beans and assorted other standard fare.

    If you make an investment, would you not expect to make a greater return than what you put in? Why should God expect less from us?

If I were to give you each tonight $100, and I were then to tell you how you could turn that $100 into ...read more

    Why Are We Here? Series

    Contributed by Brad Bailey on Jul 22, 2009
     | 5,198 views

    The very reason we gather is in response to the Divine call of God and His purposes. The problem is that the ideas we associate with “church” can come to mean so much less.

    Why are you here? That’s the question I want to begin with today. We might naturally divide that question as to whether it refers to being here in terms of existing… or being here in this gathering. I’m referring to BOTH our purpose for being here in terms of existing… as well as being ...read more

    Without the involvement of the ancient Africans, we would not have Christianity with us today, much less the nation of Israel. Without Africa - you and I, we would be toast.

    It's amazing how quickly we settle for less that what is promised and possible. So what do we do with Jesus' outlandish promises about power for living?

    “Setting Troubled Hearts at Rest: Power for the Future” John 14:7-14 In one of Charles Schultz's ‘Peanuts’ cartoons Snoopy, the hound of heaven, says of Woodstock, that would-be bird of paradise, "Someday Woodstock is going to be a great eagle." Then in the next frame he ...read more

    Committed To Conversion

    Contributed by Daniel Austin on Apr 10, 2010
     | 2,816 views

    In the New Testament, the “meaning” of baptism is two-fold: it is a burial to old life and resurrection new! Understanding the second part is no less important than understanding that baptism is for the remission of sins.

    There are great lessons we can learn from the Ethiopian Eunuchs in scripture. In this lesson we will examine an event in the life of the less well-known Ethiopian Eunuch, Ebed-Melech.
