    Our Prayers Have Been Answered Series

    Contributed by Gordon Pike on Apr 11, 2019
     | 5,451 views

    Throughout the Hebrew scriptures, the promise of a messiah is clearly given. These messianic prophecies were made hundreds, sometimes thousands, of years before Jesus Christ was born … and clearly Jesus Christ is the only person who has ever walked this earth who could fulfill them.

    “Jerusalem, Jerusalem … the city that kills the prophets and stones those who are sent to it!” (Matthew 23: 37). Prophetic and chilling words given the one who spoke them. They are the last words that the Lord Jesus Christ would address to His beloved city, Jerusalem … the city that hailed Him ...read more

    The most critical teaching in the Christian faith – accepting and living in who we truly are in Christ. We call this our identity in Christ.

    Last Sunday we began a series of lessons on what’s arguably the most critical teaching in the Christian faith – accepting and living in who we truly are in Christ.

     | 14,035 views

    This sermon deals with how we handle life's stresses. We look at the life's main stressors; busyness, guilt, grief, grudges, indecision, and fear of the future. We also look at God's prescription found in His word.

    Spiritual First Aid “Handling Life’s Stresses” We cannot talk about stress without also talking about its two cousins, anxiety and worry. They all fit into same category. Stress is a state of mind causing tension and strong feelings of anxiety and worry. Those who are under stress often exhibit ...read more

    Sometimes we are so busy we simply do not find the time to slow down, pause, or stop long enough to rest and listen to God. Yet, since time began, God has offered us all the opportunity to rest.

    We continue in our series on Hope Found Here and this month we are thinking about ‘Hope in the calming presence of God’ or to put it another way, knowing how to rest and relax in God. The question I want to address this evening is "Do we understand what it means to rest in God?" We live in a fast ...read more

    I want to be Jesus' teacher's pet. I want to be His favorite pupil. This passage gives us the key to pleasing Jesus and becoming more like Him in my life. (Spoiler alert - it has to do with how I treat people I don't like)
