    Leaders must: 1) Be Right with God (Acts 20:28a), 2) Shepherd the flock (Acts 20:28b), 3) Guard the flock (Acts 20:29–31), 4) Study and pray (Acts 20:32), and 5) Be free from self-interest.

Good leadership can lift an organization to the heights of success, whereas poor leadership can plunge it into the depths of ruin.

    How We Pray Is Important

    Contributed by Daren Mitchell on Sep 23, 2012
     | 3,464 views

    I pray we will fail in our pursuit of happiness and that as our focus transforms from the selfish to the holy we will become more and more in tune with His Spirit, with His mission to reach and serve the world around us for His Son.

    For the last two weeks we’ve been talking about prayer. The first week we discussed Daniel and how he showed us through his story that prayer matters. We discovered that prayer matters because it helps us to rely on God’s mercy. Because it helps us to confess sin and ask for mercy ...read more

    A Semper–fi Friend

     | 1,720 views

    Jesus tells us that we are His friends if we do what He commands us (John 15:14). If we keep His commandments, then we abide in His love (John 15:9). Jesus wants us to be semper fi friends! This sermon is about how a dog taught me something about the Gospel.

    A SEMPER–FI FRIEND (August 1, 2012) Text : John 15:14 John 15:14  You are my friends if you do what I command you. (NRSV). Although you might think the title refers to a marine, in this case, it is being used to refer to friendship. If you ever see a USMC bumper ...read more

    In the closing of st Corinthians, Paul lays out some very practical advice on Christian living, calling for Christian men to “man up”. While his focus is primarily toward men it is also great advice for anyone within the Body of Christ.

    Man Up! 1 Corinthians 16:13-14 “Watch ye, stand fast in the faith, quit you like men, be strong.” William Jones, captain of the Marines on the 28-gun frigate the Providence, advertised in the March 20, 1779 Providence (R.I.)

    This ongoing awareness and service, rather than anticipation of a specific future event, is the essence of spiritual alertness.

    In the pages of today's gospel, Jesus takes on the role of a sage advisor, instilling wisdom and motivation in his followers as he contemplates an imminent departure of uncertain duration. His counsel revolves around the imperative of spiritual vigilance—an awakening from the slumber of routine ...read more
