    The Transfiguration is both about how God revealed himself through Jesus Christ as well as a story about Peter almost missing it because he would not stop blathering. This is is a call for self examination and repentance. Today is Superbowl Sunday.

    When they saw the Nepthalim they said they became like “grasshoppers.” We want to look at this “grasshopper” complex later in the message.

    TEXT: Joshua 14:6-15; Numbers 13:26-33 TITLE: GRASSHOPPER MENTALITY Throughout this message I will be referring back to Numbers 13. In Numbers 13 we have the report of the spies as they returned back to Moses and the Children of Israel. None of the 12 that went could deny that the land of Canaan ...read more

    God calls us to march on through hardships and discouragements.

    I believe the Bible is the most inspiring, encouraging book ever written! I also believe we often miss the fullness of inspiration God desires for us. We miss it partly because we live in a VIDEO world (we would rather watch something than read it). We miss it partly because we live in a very ...read more

     | 951 views

    The world may not see the fruits of our faith because we, like Moses, are hiding and making excuses instead of taking action. God often asks us to undertake challenging tasks. Will we trust Him? Do we respond with faith or excuses when God calls?

    Last week, we heard a powerful message about faith and works. The pastor challenged us with the question, "Where's your fruit, Church?" Today, we will delve deeper into this question by examining Moses' response to God's call in Exodus chapter 3. Are there things holding us back from being as ...read more

    Eighth in a series from Ephesians. Resurrection power is the greatest power man has ever known because it can transform our lives.

    What is the greatest power in the history of mankind? Some might argue that it is manmade power and for them, the ultimate man-made power would certainly have to be a nuclear bomb. The world saw that kind of power unleashed at Hiroshima and Nagasaki at the end of World War II. And today’s nuclear ...read more
