    Sometimes in the church we throw around words and due to their constant use we forget what the meaning of the word actually is. One of the most misunderstood words we use is the word "repentance". What exactly does repentance mean and how important is r

    What Does it Mean to Repent of Sin? Introduction: The word repentance is not a popular word in today’s society. It is not popular because if we call people to repentance then we are admitting that people are doing something wrong. People don’t like to be told that they are wrong or have ...read more

    Sermon for the 3rd Sunday in Lent Series C

    Dear brothers and sisters in Christ, If God is so good and if God is so great, then why (you fill in the blank)? If God is so powerful and if God is so loving then why (you fill in the blank)?

    Some believe repentance means simply to "turn around" and go in the opposite direction. But the Bible tells us repentance is much more than this.

    The Greek word for repentance is metanoia. Meta means "to change or shift" and noia means "perspective." It literally means a change in the way one views things. Repentance means not only saying you’re sorry, it means you are going to genuinely change and mend your ways. John was preaching ...read more

    When disaster strikes, the question is not ’what did they do to deserve that?’. The question is - ’What am I going to do about it?’

    Luke 13: 1-9 What did they do to deserve that? We have had another week of disaster. Once again we’ve seen large numbers of people killed and maimed, most particularly in the awful disaster at Madrid. At once again we might ask the question ’what on earth have they done to deserve that?’. And it ...read more

    Salvation is MORE than "easy believe-ism". We need to see our sin the same way God sees it. Our sin should break our heart, like it does God’s heart.
