    A sermon that considers Jesus as he is described in Hebrews chapter 1 rising out of what it say in Hebrews chapter 12 and verse 3 - "Consider Him."

So many Christians today are weary and have lost heart. Why? Because they have not truly considered Jesus in his fullness. Chapter one of ...read more

    Understanding how to obtain the blessings of suffering as Christians.

    WE MUST THROUGH MANY TRIBULATIONS... What is tribulation, but that very influence that brings us nearer to the heart of God than prayers or hymns?

    based on 45 ratings
     | 8,621 views

    In this message we will look at examples in the scripture where God literally told people to shut their mouths. Sometimes we need to be silent before God, and receive instruction, rather than shooting off the mouth and explaining things from our perspecti

     | 13,581 views

    Giving to God what is His requires we recognize what bears His image and, thus, a duty toward Him.

    Whose Image? Matt 22:15-22 The gospel for today has a saying of Jesus that is probably better known than anything else he ever said, with the possible exception of his words to Nicodemus about being born again. The odd thing about Jesus’ words in today’s gospel is this: were not answering the ...read more

    Is it possible to really feel another person’s pain? When are we willing to allow our selves to feel others pain. How did Jesus demonstrate the feeling of pain?

    Other People’s Pain My mother and father both said it. I never believed it and I think I told them so. They would always say it just before “IT” happened….
