    The Church Matthew 4:18-25 September 18, 2022 Has anyone ever been talking to you and you silently wondered, and maybe if you were brave enough, you asked “so . . . what’s the point?” I once had a person telling me a story about something that happened in their life and they actually said, “to ...read more

    This is part 1 of my 5 week series on what the church needs to look like in the emerging culture. This looks specifically at what the early church looked like, and what those practices can look like in our world.

This is an exciting series for me, because I hope at the end of the 5 weeks, you will have a better idea about how I think about church. Some of my hopes and dreams for us as a ...read more

    To think about the time of the Last Supper?   • Look back - for Christ's death • Look ahead - for the second coming of Christ • Look inside - make a self-examination • Look at the sides - concern yourself with the next

    What is the secret to a life of overflowing abundance? There’s much we can learn from the life of David and Abraham. God can bless abundantly if only we can follow certain principles, and let go of thoughts and attitudes that displease God.

    We read in 2 Corinthians 9:8, “Besides, God is able to make every blessing of yours overflow for you, so that in every situation you will always have all you need for any good work.” (ISV) This is Paul’s words to the church at Corinth and he wished them that they would be full and overflowing with ...read more

    We continue to ponder on Psalms 77:11-12, “I will remember your great deeds, LORD; I will recall the wonders you did in the past.
