    Thanksgiving Day has come to mean little more than a day off from work with food and family and football, if you are lucky! But, the word "thanks" that kicks off the name of the holiday implies that there is "Someone" who needs to be thanked!

Please stand as we read our newest memory Scripture together … Jude 1:24-25 “To Him who is able to keep you from stumbling and to present you before His glorious presence without fault and with great joy – “To the only God our Savior be glory, majesty, power and ...read more

    Thanksgiving; the day we set aside to give thanks for all we have. Although I'm glad we have a national holiday dedicated to being thankful, God's intention is that we would be in a continual mindset of giving thanks. We need to be living thankfully.

    Why is so much attention given to Christmas? Mother's Day, Father's Day, 4th of July, even Easter, are important holidays, but put them all together & they don't make the impact that Christmas does.

    When those whose lives are in danger ask for prayer, it would be a sin to fail to pray for them. Born again Christians can take their rightful place among such giants of intercession, such as Moses, Daniel, The Apostle Paul,and Jesus.

    Joy, gratitude, and mercy, are a part of our calling as Christians. We often do more this time of year, but our calling extends beyond the Christmas holiday, our calling is a part of our lives every day. I can’t help but think that Mary didn’t just sing

    At the turn of the 18th century, Christmas could be a very dangerous time for ordinary common folk like us.
