     | 4,250 views

    Jesus was well known for upsetting people's "apple carts." In this sermon He challenges us to go beyond the obvious sin of murder and to dwell on anger, judgment, and provoking others.

    Don’t you hate it when someone comes along and “upsets the apple cart?” This saying originated sometime in the 1800’s. The idea behind it was that a farmer had carefully loaded his cart with apples to take and sell at the market place. However, some clumsy oaf would come ...read more

    Thank you Pastor John Hamby for the original message. Much of this has remained the same, simply because it spoke to our need so well.

    I want to begin looking at our theme for 2014, which is “Learning to be the light.” We’ll start by looking a passage in Matthew 5 and before we look at the idea of being light I believe we need to look at this concept of being salt. Since Jesus added salt to light, here, ...read more

    There’s nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We were born to manifest the glory of God that is within us . . . And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. Nelson Mandela

    Nelson Mandela once said; “Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, “Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous?” Actually, ...read more

In 1853, Lewis became the keeper of ...read more
