    The church is being called on by the Holy Spirit to return to its first love! That first love is the Lord Jesus and it requires a change of direction on our part as Christians need to return to Him. Put Him in 1st place in their busy lives.

    Series: What is the Spirit saying to the church today? The expression, "what the Spirit says to the churches" occurs in each of the seven letters to the particular churches in the book of Revelation. In these letters, Christ reminds these churches that he sees what is going on in their churches. ...read more

    As you joyfully persevere in trials, God will transform you in this life and bless you in next.

    We¡¦ve been talking the last few weeks about affliction and sufferings. Let me tell you a little parable about trials. A bird was flying south for the winter.

    The Need for Patience. Given the oppressions mentioned in vv. 3-6, James encourages Christians to be patient until the coming of the Lord, and he cites the farmer, the prophets, and Job.

    Text: James 5:7-11 (NIV) 7Be patient, then, brothers and sisters, until the Lord’s coming. See how the farmer waits for the land to yield its valuable crop, patiently waiting for the autumn and spring rains. 8You too, be patient and stand firm, because the Lord’s coming is near. 9Don’t grumble ...read more

    It is always a bad idea to try to accomplish God’s plan in your own way and by your own timing. God’s plans come complete with His methods and His timing, and when we get impatient and try to tinker with that … well, everything gets all messed up.

    “Don’t pray for patience.” Who hasn’t heard that before, amen? It’s almost become an axiom when it comes to prayer, hasn’t it? Some of you, I suspect, believe it and have even advised someone in your family or one of your friends not to pray for patience. I disagree. I pray for patience all ...read more

    Message 1 in a series through James that helps us explore the relationship between faith and works in our lives. James was the half-brother of Jesus and the leader of the church in Jerusalem.

    Today, we’re starting a new series through the New Testament book of James called Faith & Works. I truly believe that you won’t find a more practical book in the entire Bible than James. Some of you may remember the For Dummies series of books that became popular 20-30 years ago and are still ...read more

    This is a message on the letter to the Church at Ephesus. In this letter, Jesus commends this church for a lot of things, but also reprimands them for their focus on service to Him over a love for Him.

    The sermon calls us to embody Christ’s selfless love in everyday actions, making His love visible through unity, humility, forgiveness, and patient care for one another.

    Good morning, dear friends. If your week felt hurried and your heart feels thin, you’re in the right place. Take a breath. Set your shoulders down. Imagine the Savior kneeling with a towel at His waist, looking into the eyes of people who would soon scatter, and speaking a command as tender as it ...read more

    The sermon encourages steadfast obedience and faithful confession of Jesus despite spiritual opposition, assuring believers their perseverance matters and is empowered by Christ’s victory.

    If you’ve ever felt the sting of being misunderstood for loving Jesus, if you’ve ever sensed a shadow trying to smother your song, you’re in good company. The Bible is honest about that ache. It doesn’t gloss over the grit. It names the Enemy. It speaks of a dragon. It recognizes that there is ...read more
