    You have to admit that you are a sinner, that God is greater than sin, you must give yourself to God and; if you are resisting continuing with the program, then you must count the costs of continuing in your sinful state or changing your course.

    Sunday, July 27, 2008 “Count the Costs” Text: Luke 14: 28 This Sunday we move to a pivotal point in our therapeutic program: 12 steps in nine weeks: breaking your addiction to sin. First we know that you have to admit that you are a sinner. Second that God is greater than ...read more

    As I follow Jesus as his disciple, I can live a life of eternal purpose and significance.

    I’m convinced one of the reasons so many people were attracted to Jesus was that He offered them purpose for living. Yet Jesus wanted to make sure they really understood what He was all about. They could indeed find meaning and purpose in life, but first they had to commit to following Him as ...read more

    This sermon takes an unusual twist and is an interesting take on "Christmas Service, as it looks at the attitudes of those associated with Jesus's birth.

    Christmas Service Matthew 6:25-34 As you look at the screen, you may be thinking that today is our Christmas service, and you may be thinking of Christmas songs and a message, hopefully short, about the Christmas story, that is, the birth of our Savior and Lord, Jesus Christ. Now, I really don’t ...read more

    Good morning everyone. Welcome to Church. I trust that you had a wonderful Christmas celebration with your families, friends, and loved ones.

    What was involved when Joshua said "as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD."

    “But as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.” “Now therefore fear the LORD and serve him in sincerity and in faithfulness.

    The problems and issues that people had with Jesus in the first century are the same problems and issues we have today. Jesus is simply out of step with the times.

    What’s Wrong With Jesus January 27, 2018 Luke 14:25-35 John 6:60-66 If you were to ask some people what’s wrong with Jesus, you might get responses such as 1) He’s too narrow-minded, 2) He can’t be the Son of God), 3) He expects too much of people, 4) He offends people, and 5) He’s no ...read more

    When we embrace a relationship with Jesus, we end up calculating the cost of following Him. I use a current political story to show not everything is as we think it is.

    Calculate the Cost Luke 14:25-33 February 3, 2019 I’m going to start out being a little political. Most of you will recall that there was an incident in Washington DC, in which some students from a Catholic school were chastised, and that’s being gentle for how they treated a Native American who ...read more

    Luke 8:16-21 Introduction: Recap of Part 14 • Jesus Introduces the Kingdom • The Kingdom of God is the realm of God, visible or invisible, where God’s systems and ways of doing things are already established and working. • We showed the development of the Kingdom from the declaration of John ...read more

    Are you ready to drink from the cup of Jesus?

    What’s in the Cup? The message today is based on the portion of scripture found in Mark 10:32-45.

    One must seriously consider what it means to follow Christ and what commitment is needed to be a Christian.

    I ADMIT IT! I HAVE A TENDENCY TO BE “CHEAP”! WHEN FACING UTILITY BILLS, CAR REPAIR, MEDICAL CO-PAYS, OR HOME REPAIRS, I ALWAYS SEEM TO AKS ONE PARTICULAR QUESTION FIRST: HOW MUCH IS THIS GOING TO COST? IT IS AN HONEST QUESTION.

    Jesus And Giving Series

     | 3,122 views

    Today we will turn to examine what Jesus had to say about giving. And we will ask what giving looked like to Jesus. The passage in Luke 14:15-33 is considered one of the "Hard Sayings of Jesus". And indeed, it takes a bit of explanation to make sense of it.

    Jesus and Giving Text: Luke 14:15-33 Luke 14:25-33 (NIV) 25 Large crowds were traveling with Jesus, and turning to them he said: 26 "If anyone comes to me and does not hate his father and mother, his wife and children, his brothers and sisters--yes, even his own life--he cannot be my ...read more
