    Knowing God personally gives us strength to persevere faithfully through weariness and opposition, trusting His grace to sustain and complete the work in us.

    Some of us walked in today with tired feet and a tender heart. You’ve been faithful in the little things. You’ve shown up when the scoreboard didn’t seem to change. Maybe you’ve been praying for a prodigal, cheering on a spouse, or steadying a weary mind in the middle of the night. You’re here. And ...read more

    I’m sure you’ve all seen people do some wacky things and have thought to yourself, “These people are out of their minds”. Someone risking their life doing a stunt is one thing but what about when it comes to doing God’s will?

    “HE’S OUT OF HIS MIND” Mark 3:20-35 INTRODUCTION: I’m sure you’ve all seen people do some far-out wacky things and have thought to yourself, “These people must be out of their minds”. Someone risking their life doing a stunt is one thing but what about ...read more

    Did Jesus intend the office of Priest to be included in the New Testament Church? If not, why not?

    Matthew 21:23-27 “Jesus entered the temple courts, and, while He was teaching, the chief priests and the elders of the people came to Him. ‘By what authority are you doing these things?’ they asked. ‘And who gave You this authority?’ “Jesus replied, ‘I ...read more

    Who is Jesus? Was He just a man. Or was He a myth? Or is He the Divine Christ?

    By What Authority? Luke 19:45-20:8 Luke has just given extensive coverage of the Triumphal Entry on Palm Sunday. (See sermon: “It’s My Party, and I’ll Cry if I Want To”) So why does Luke give only one verse to the cleansing of the Temple when Matthew and especially Mark give extensive coverage? ...read more
