    Jesus teaches that the things that defile a person are the things that come from the heart. This sermon offers four habits to be cultivated as means of grace to allow the Spirit room to root out the sin that lurks within our hearts.

    It Came From Within Introduction Growing up spending many days at my grandfather's home we watched television a lot. While I was a child of the 80s, we also watched old films. There were those that put my young mind in suspense with titles like The Creature From the Black Lagoon and It Came ...read more

    There were many kings who reigned over Israel, but amongst all of them David was distinguished. The reason for David’s renown was because he had a single minded devotion toward God and made that his sole ambition.

    We read in Psalm 91:9-10, “Because thou hast made the LORD, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation; There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.” (NKJV) As we continue our meditations on Psalm 91, we will focus our attention on verses 9 and 10 ...read more

    Vigila tus ojos y tu corazón con gran diligencia. Vigilad vuestros ojos, no sea que atrapen vuestro corazón. Vigilad vuestros corazones, no sea que sean atrapados por vuestros ojos. Donde el ojo está lleno de adulterio, el corazón también lo está.

    CUANDO NUESTRO CORAZÓN CAMINA TRAS NUESTROS OJOS " Si mi paso se desvió del camino, y mi corazón anduvo tras mis ojos, y si alguna mancha se pegó a mis manos;" (JOB 31:7) ¿Puede el corazón caminar tras los ojos? ¿O puede el ojo engañar al ...read more

    What Difference Has Jesus Made In Your Life?

    When Christ came to Earth, He changed the world. When He comes into our lives, our lives are transformed. The Christmas message is that a huge change has taken place because the King has taken his place.

    What Difference has Jesus made in your Life? Pastor Glenn Newton, December 11, 2016 14 Therefore the Lord himself will give you[c] a sign: The virgin[d] will conceive and give birth to a son, and[e] will call him Immanuel.[f] (Isaiah 7:14) Luke 2: 8-20 8 And there were shepherds living out in ...read more

    This sermon begins a journey through the Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 5-7). I’ve begun with the end in mind. If we hear and do what Jesus taught, we will be like the wise person who built on the rock and withstood the storm.

    Withstanding the Storms [Show storm video] Matthew 7:24-27 24 "Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. 25 The rain came down, the streams rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house; yet it did not ...read more

    Treasure God, not temporary things! We’ve already talked about prayer in this chapter. Well, fasting goes along with prayer and is an investment that brings spiritual dividends. Let’s look at some thoughts on hunger, reward, and treasure.

    Rewards and Treasures Matthew 6:19-21 19 "Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. 20 But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moth and rust do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. ...read more

    You see, the help that we receive from the hand of God comes as a result of our humble hearts being yielded to Him in all things. God helps those who are humble before Him in the manner and time in which He sees fit.

    UNDER GOD’S MIGHTY HAND 1 Peter 5:6 THREAD: 1 Peter 5:6 “Humble yourselves, therefore, under God's mighty hand, that He may lift you up in due time.” The verse we will focus on today is not a difficult verse to read. It is not a difficult verse to understand. The verse we will ...read more

    David's heart for God was extended to a man with crippled feet. A picture of the love of Jesus for us.

    Last week we talked about David. We have learned that he is only 15 but has been chosen by God to become the next king of Israel. The reason being that he has a heart for God. That meant his very being, innermost person desired to please God above everything else. This same 15-year-old boy ...read more

    In 1 Samuel 8, we are told how the people of Israel asked for a king to lead them.

    Today’s church struggles with idolatry just like the nation of Israel struggled with it. Repeatedly Israel invited God’s displeasure by their dual allegiance which was and is idolatry.

    Who is Your God? 1 Kings 18:21 “And Elijah came unto all the people, and said, How long halt ye between two opinions? if the LORD be God, follow him: but if Baal, then follow him.

    Half-Baked

    Hosea charged Israel with being “a cake not turned” or “half-baked". They were half-hearted towards God. Like Israel, many of today’s professed believers have followed the same pattern of incomplete discipleship.

    1 Half-Baked Hosea 7:8-10 “Ephraim is a cake not turned.” — Hosea 7:8 Hosea, a prophet to the house of Israel during the reign of Jeroboam II, used several colorful admonitions to bring to Israel’s attention the state of their relationship with God. In his comparison he ...read more
