    Now, I have no doubt that some of you have looked at the title of my sermon printed in the bulletin and wondered, “What in the world are you up to this morning, Pastor Jim?” Well, we are going to hear a word that begins with “s” quite a bit this morning and I thought to myself on Monday when I ...read more

    Sermon 3 of a New Year’s series based on Wilkinson’s book Experiencing Spiritual Breakthroughs.

    One of the things about starting a new sermon series is that I am never sure how it is going to develop regarding content (it must be Biblical of course) and structure (especially as it relates to application). Last week I said to you that I wanted this series to be practical and helpful to you ...read more

    Sign, Sign, Everywhere A Sign

    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,094 views

    The irony that those who should have recognized the signs of Christ’s arrival were completely oblivious while "foreigners" recognized them.

    Mt. 2:1-12 ”Sign, Sign, Everywhere a Sign” I want to begin by asking a question. How many wise men were there? Anybody venture a guess? We typically say three, don’t we? The truth is we don’t know exactly how many there were. But we tend to say three because there were three gifts that ...read more

    Title: The End Text: Rev 21.1-8 Today, of course, is a special day.

    A message to remind us 1) what God has done for us 2) what He has promised us, and 3) where He is taking us. We must make the decision whether or not to take God into the New Year with us.

    So, all the presents have been unwrapped and even some of the gifts have been exchanged. The leftover turkey is all but gone and we have had to let our belts out a notch or two. All seems well and we are happy as can be – or are we? Many people find themselves depressed during the weeks ...read more
