    Too often our living and worship become steeped in tradition and ritual. This sermon is a call to examine what we do and more importantly WHY we do it in an attempt to keep us from elevating the traditions of men above the law of God.

  • The Jesus Of The Word Of God Series

    Contributed by James Wallace on Mar 17, 2025
     | 605 views

    Try as we might, we can't make Jesus into just anything we want Him to be. If we would meet, follow and worship the real Jesus, we must understand that He is the Jesus of the Bible, the Living Word of God, for to believe anything else will result in wasted worship.

  • Trust Not In Princes Series

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Feb 8, 2020
     | 2,964 views

    The Scriptures enjoin us not to trust in princes, because God’s word is very clear about human minds and wills. We are weak, and so we sin.

    Worship is supposed to come from a grateful heart and mind, focused on how God's mercy and grace has taken us off of the road to hell and by the redemptive work of Jesus Christ on our behalf, placed us on the narrow road leading to eternal life. Our submission to Him as Lord and Savior, ...read more
