    God has sent us a Valentine—His Word! Then He sent us His Son who is love personified---a “living” valentine. I Corinthians 13 reminds us of the importance of being filled with God’s love.

    God’s Valentine I Corinthians 13:1-3 VALENTINE’S DAY! NO ONE KNOWS FOR SURE WHERE OR HOW IT ORIGINATED, but we do know who is responsible for keeping it before the public’s eyes---the greeting card, candy, and floral companies.

    There is One that has never made a mistake, One that we can totally put our trust in and believe every thing He says whether we understand it or not. And that of coarse is our Great God.

And we saw that kind of real love between a husband and wife through the story of Hosea, who loved his wife ...read more

    Message on Ephesians 5:1-8 about how we are to be imitators of God.

    This morning I would like to talk about being an imitation or being an imitator. When I think about imitations I tend to think of cheap replicas things with inferior quality and while it might be a good deal, it will not last as long or work as well as the original. A couple of things that come to ...read more

    People know that there has to be some sort of higher being or a higher power. Baal, Buda, the sun, moon or stars, anything that people could put some kind of faith or phenomena to or unknown knowledge of to worship.

    In the Beginning God Do you know that nowhere in the bible does the Prophets, Jesus or the Holy Spirit tried to prove that there is a God?
