    Keep On Loving Each Other!

    In the face of tragedy God strengthens us as we keep on loving each other the way that he designed.

    What a tragic day it was. The massive loss of unsuspecting human life brought about by an unprovoked attack is saddening. There is also another reason that makes September 11, 2001, a sad day. That was a sad day indeed because it took a tragedy of that proportion to get Americans to think beyond ...read more

    Love Came Down At Christmas

    At Christmas if all we speak about is Jesus and the manger in isolation of his life of love and sacrifice we are doing the gospel a disservice. Christmas is a redemption story - tell it with all its glory.

    As we prepare for Christmas, sometimes I wonder if we have allowed the Savior to be stolen from our celebrations. I say this because “Merry Christmas” has been replaced with “Happy Holidays”, businesses exclude Christmas by saying “holiday sale” and when someone asks if you are ready for Christmas ...read more

    When we are dealing with issues and conflicts, we may select to be babies (unlimited retaliation), children (limited retaliation), adolescents (limited love), or mature (unlimited love), toward Jesus’ command to "Be perfect as your heavenly Father is perfect."

    Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect. What madman spoke those words? What visionary would even in his wildest dreams suppose that you and I could be perfect? What is this raving? It is the word of Jesus, at the end of a series of challenges. Love your enemies. Give to ...read more

    God demonstrated His immeasureable love to us at Calvary

    Intro. We have made it through another Easter season. If there is ever a time we see the love of God, it is this time of year. If we are not careful, we will take the TRUTH of the Death, Burial and resurrection of Christ for granted. How Big is our God? How much do we believe He loves us? ...read more

    FALLING OUT OF LOVE WITH JESUS > Hosea 11:7 My people are bent on turning from Me. Though they call to Him on high, He will not exalt them at all.

    Jesus asks Peter this question three times. It is the only time in scripture where Jesus asks anyone, "Do you love me?" It is an important question that determines our ultimate destiny.

    Do You Love Me? What are some things that you love? How does your love of these compare with your love for Jesus Christ? There’s a song in our songbook that goes: “The things that I love and hold dear to my heart are just borrowed they’re not mine at all. Jesus only let me use them to brighten ...read more

    Thoughts on the Bridal Paradigm

    God’s very essence is love. (1 John 4:7-10) He has always been love, even before He created mankind. He has always sought to have a close relationship with mankind. Human Beings were made for this love. The entire story of humanity is wrapped up within it. Love is why humans were created, and love ...read more

    A simple reminder of the Love that God has for us--and what that Love means for us.

    “Yes, Jesus Loves Me” If we had to describe the one true God in one word what would it be? We know so many of his attributes: all-powerful, all-knowing, all-present, just… But as John described him, “God is love.” (1 John 4:16) This doesn’t diminish his other attributes, but his love ...read more

    I wrote this funeral message for a mentally handicapped adult who was very child-like. It is based on some of the more obscure verses of "Jesus Loves Me."

    INTRODUCTION: One of the most familiar Christian songs in the world is “Jesus Loves Me.” Most of us can recall one or two verses, but did you know that the author of the song, Anna Bartlett Warner, originally wrote seven?
