    With what God has entrusted to us, are we faithful not only as individuals but as a church toward God. Are we willing to faithfully pursue Him and walk with Him no matter what! God put the church in the world; Satan tries to put the world in the church. Be faithful!

    Opening illustration: I wonder what Christ or even the apostle Paul would say if they were to visit our churches today. What a beehive of activity! Committees, programs, entertainment without end. But worship is often downplayed, services are cut back, prayer meetings are eliminated. Some call ...read more

That worship arises from a relationship with Him. The bible says in the ...read more

    For many, church has become a comfortable place—a sanctuary where we find peace, encouragement, and fellowship. But Jesus never intended the church to be a final destination. Instead, He envisioned it as a dynamic launching pad, a place that equips, empowers, and sends believers into the world to ...read more
