    Why do we so often opt to live life in a place where there is little that satisfies, rather than approach the King; especially when the King has sought to do good to us?

    The Emotional Life

    So oftentimes, emotions function like the lights on our dashboard. When the engine light comes on, something needs to be paid attention to.

    Today I want to talk about our emotional life. Maybe this is an area for you that seems out-of-control for you. Or perhaps the opposite: you feel a bit dead, almost feeling-less. Recently Time magazine even ran an article about how to handle your emotions during tough economic times. I’m ...read more

    Life is like many different things that we experience in this world.

    INTRO.- One thing we all know is that life is not easy. There are hills and valleys. There are good days and bad. There are positives and negatives.

    There are different kinds of vessels in the house of God. So you will do well to examine what kind of vessel you are. Let me clear one thing before we go deeper into this message: God will not accept any excuse from anyone for not being a useful vessel.

    Our message this week, is what I call “The thorns of life.” Genesis 3:17-19 says, “And unto Adam He said, Because thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, of which I commanded thee saying, thou shalt not eat of it: cursed is the ground for thy ...read more

    Are you living in this Newness of Life? Has Your relationship with Christ delivered you from the power of sin?

    As look at Romans, Chapters 3 through 5 laid the foundation for the doctrine of Grace: Chapter 6 begins to tell us how to LIVE BY GRACE.
