    Points out that this time of year is a celebration of the birth of Christ. And that we should treat December 25th as we would any other persons’ birthday. It causes us to reflect on the heart of Herod and ours during this time of year.

    Christ is Christmas Matthew 2:1-12 “Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judaea in the days of Herod the king, behold, there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem, Saying, Where is he that is born King of the Jews? for we have seen his star in the east, and are come to worship him.

We are looking at the aftermath of Peter’s sermon. On that day 3,000 believed. The church went from 120 to 3120. A few days latter another ...read more

    A message about God speaking to each of us and asking what if we were to know that this was to be our last Christmas, and would it change our thinking and attitude.

    I sat and watched a Christmas show on Tuesday night and thought how emotional do we become when we sit and see human nature affecting us. I thought about every Christmas that we celebrate from when we were kids to now as adults. For many of us the Christmas’s we grew up with probably did not have ...read more

    A sermon to share with the congregation the need for serious and steady prayer concerning our church’s annual budget and the giving of the church.

    The internet is a wonderful source of information; although some is trivial, some useless, some is motivational, and some mind-numbing. Just for fun I went to a site called "Global Rich List." On this site there is a block where you insert your annual income, click on another button and it will ...read more
