    Jesus is the light that guides us through life, revealing truth, teaching us how to live, and promising eternal life. His light is transformative, changing us from the inside out and filling our lives with love, grace, mercy, and peace.

    Imagine you're in a pitch-black room, and you can't see anything. You're stumbling, tripping over stuff, and you're totally lost. Then, someone flips on a light. Suddenly, you can see everything clearly. That's what Jesus does for us. He's not just a tiny flashlight; He's like a massive spotlight, ...read more

    We Are Soldiers For Christ

     | 5,231 views

    Make no mistake - we are soldiers for Christ. As soldiers, we have a duty to do what He has told us to do: Love & pray for our enemies - including those of the Islamic faith.

    It is fitting that we start this sermon by coming to an understanding of just who we are. Put in its simplest terms, we are soldiers of Jesus Christ. No Christian should ever doubt that. And, as soldiers, we must have certain knowledge and perform certain duties. 2 TIMOTHY 2:3 states, ‘Endure ...read more

    Lessons From Failure Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 7,558 views

    When we fail in ministry, our failure need not be fatal. Rather, if our failure teaches us to depend on Christ and care for people, we can move on from failure to impact our world like Jesus’ original disciples did.

    In our modern culture, the way of salvation is under challenge within and without the church. This sermon addresses this important issue.

    Why Jesus is the only Way to salvation. In our post modern culture, the question frequently arises, “Why do you say Jesus is the only way?” or “Who are you to say Jesus is the only way?” We can expect the culture to ask questions like this, but in the last few years the Christian church itself has ...read more

    Somehow it’s become vogue to cut ourselves off from the world; but God isn’t done with this world yet. One area where God is able to use His people to reach the lost is in our day to day relationships with them.

    You may well remember the story of Joshua. Joshua came after Moses and his Job was to lead the Israelites into the promised land. Because the Canaanites were wicked God commanded Joshua to kill every person in Canaan, because God didn’t want the Israelites to adopt the Canaanite lifestyle of ...read more

    Nehemiah's prayer was an example in practicality, specificity and common sense when coming before the LORD with our needs and burdens. Prayer is an orderly time of conversing with God, who wants to hear from you daily.

    This message is a continuation of our look at the prayers of the Jewish statesman Nehemiah and his concern over the rebuilding of Jerusalem, which had laid in ruins for decades after its destruction by the Babylonian King Nebuchadnezzar in 586 B.C., which brought the kingdom of Judah to an end ...read more
