The Lord’s church must be united!
INTRO.- United we stand, divided we fall. Where are those words found in scripture? Who said those words in the Bible? NO ONE SAID THOSE WORDS IN SCRIPTURE. They are not found in scripture. Jesus said something similar but not those exact words. Matt. 12:25 “Every kingdom divided against ...read more

Scripture: Acts 6:1-7
Whatever we do, we must not let our traditions steal our joy or our love. We must not let “church business” keep us from “the business of the church.”
A few years ago, I came across some odd laws from a long time ago that were still on the books in the 21st Century. I think you’ll find them quite amusing. For example, young girls are never allowed to walk a tightrope in Wheeler, Mississippi, unless it's in a church. In Blackwater, ...read more

Grace is THE blueprint for God's church, and without it you do NOT have a church.. But what is so important about grace and how could we miss having it in our church?
OPEN: In the state of Indiana, if you’re going to build a house, or an office building, or a church building, the first thing you’ve gotta have is… a blueprint. If you don’t have a blueprint, they won’t let you build. Now you might ask – why do they call it a ...read more

God brings peace and order to our lives and church, inviting us to trust His presence and follow His clear, simple guidance with settled hearts.
If you walked in today with a heart that feels hurried, with thoughts that scatter like leaves in a gust of wind, you’re in good company. Life has a way of turning up the volume. Deadlines stack up. Conversations get clipped. Sleep runs thin. And then Sunday comes, and we find ourselves in the ...read more

THE CHURCH THAT TOLERATES. Since God created the human race, Satan has taken an active aggressive role against the human race. His goal is to divide and destroy. He wants to seduce us away from the protective arms of our Creator so that he can drag us away to share in his eternal destiny. We ...read more
