    A Home Built By God Series

    One could imagine the book of Ruth ending with - "They lived happily ever after." However, this account is not a children's story of fairy tale. In fact, it is part of the scarlet thread that runs through the Old Testament, leading to the birth of our Savior.

    A Home Built by God Ruth 4: 13-22 I think you would all agree that it has been a pleasant and encouraging journey through the book of Ruth. We are all familiar with the fairy tales of our youth. Most of them begin with “Once upon a time” and end with “Happily ever-after.” The book of Ruth ...read more

    John 4 -- Nobleman's Son. The second sign in John's Gospel shows the Word made flesh has limitless authority and power.

    Introduction I want to begin today with a simple refrain you may have heard before: God said it. I believe it. And that settles it for me. That little line may sound like something out of a gospel chorus, but it’s actually the heartbeat of the second sign in John’s Gospel. We’re in John chapter ...read more

    XMAS - God chose a humble, dusty road to Bethlehem to show He walks our hardest roads today—carrying us as we carry His grace.

    Introduction — The Road No One Would Have Chosen There are certain roads in life that none of us would choose. Some roads are too hard… too lonely… too costly… too uncertain… And yet, strangely, these are often the very roads where God chooses to walk with us most closely. When we think of ...read more

    If we withhold the expression of our gratitude, we create a gap in the relationship. And if it goes on for too long, it actually damages relationships. This is true for any relationship, including our relationship with God.

    Give Thanks to God Give Thanks Part 1 Luke 17:11-19 Today, we are starting a new message series, Give Thanks. As we approach Thanksgiving, we want to prepare our hearts for gratitude toward God.

    The answers that God will give to us, will be so astounding that it will be way beyond our human thinking and understanding. Irrespective of the kind of situations that we are challenged with, if the Lord is with us, we can come out victorious.

    God our Liberator We read in Psalm 91:15,“When they call to me, I will answer them; when they are in trouble, I will be with them. I will rescue them and honor them.” (GNB) As we continue our study on Psalm 91, we will meditate on verse 15 in its entirety and thereby try to comprehend all that ...read more

    The light we have in Christ is a fading light; we are not assured that history as we know it will remain, and it may be nearing its end. Feel the urgency of following and using that light while we can.
