    Forgiveness isn’t counted but lived—when we release others, God releases us, mercy triumphs, and faith regains its power to move mountains.

If it weren’t for the mercy and compassion of God, where would we be? Utterly consumed. Gone. Done for. But His ...read more

Some of you came in carrying something heavy — maybe heavier than you let on. And before we talk about bold faith, or big belief, or anything like that, I want to start with ...read more

    This is the second in an Advent Series. This message deals with those who neglected to notice Mary & Joseph in the inn. Thoughts for the direction of this sermon were greatly influenced by a John MacArthur message "The People Who Missed Christmas".
