    Christianity is all about a relationship with Jesus, and it is purely by grace. Its end is not salvation but fellowship with God.

    If someone were to walk up to you and ask you out of the blue, “How can I be saved?” what would you say? • Would you know how to answer him? What is the one thing that you would tell him? • You need to know. Your answer will determine where he spends ...read more

    "Nicodemus Wears A White Hat”

     | 3,414 views

    Good cowboys wear white hats. Nicodemus was depending on his "goodness", keeping Jewish rules and his connection to Abraham. Our new American theology is not different....we want to depend on our own goodness. Jesus is not "one" way, but the only way.

    In Jesus Holy Name Lent IV March 14, 2021 Text: John 3:17,18a “Nicodemus Wears a White Hat” Who wears white hats? In the old silent movie days you always knew who the good cowboys were. They wore white hats. The bad cowboys wore back hats. That way you always knew who the ...read more

    A sermon for Advent

    Let us continue our worship by learning from God’s Word. Please open your Bibles to Luke 18…. Look again at v18-23….. We noted last week that this ruler thought he was going to heaven because he had done the best he could in the sight of men. But because he lacked full ...read more

    Grace For The Despised

    Contributed by Jeff Hagan on May 27, 2017
     | 7,059 views

    True grace goes much deeper than we tend to think it does. We tend to reserve it for those who are already followers of Christ, however, Christ exercised grace, mercy, and love even to the most despised of sinners.

    Introduction: I’m sure most of you are familiar with the biblical account of a tiny little guy by the name of Zacchaeus. Well, far from just an entertaining story popular among Sunday School children, the incident with Zacchaeus gives us an incredible example of God’s grace and love. We see in ...read more
