    We have a heritage, we have a future, we also have a destiny! It’s time we stood up collectively together and reclaimed what has been stolen from under our very nose and is rightfully ours!

    Live life like you were living! There are a lot of things that excite people in life. There’s music, sports, money excites a lot of people! What gets you going? Why does society become so excited over man made achievements and events in life? Wining an Oscar, or a Super Bowl ring everyone would ...read more

     | 1,525 views

    Another amazing role of the Holy Spirit is to be a stream of living water that flows from within those who put their faith in Christ. We must be thirsty and drink before we will experience the refreshment.

    A. The story is told about a man who got himself lost in the desert and began to search for water to quench his thirst. 1. After countless hours searching, he came upon a well with a big opening at the top. a. He peered down into the well, but couldn't see a thing down there. b. He looked ...read more

    Melchizedek.... Hebrew kids heard about him all the time. His story was familiar but what does this old priest tell us about the greater Priest; Jesus. He's got a lot to say.

    The Bible is by far the most unique and amazing books on planet earth. I especially love the Old Testament stories. As a child I remember my mother reading me the Old Testament Bible Stories at night at bedtime. As a boy, I was mesmerized by the stories and still are to this day. My favorite ...read more

    Celebrating In The Losers Cirlce Series

    James tells us the story of a rich man and a poor man who came to church one day. One appeared to be a winner – the other a loser. How should a group of losers who have been made winners by Christ treat such people?

    No body likes a loser. Have you ever seen a losers circle at the racetrack? When is the last time you saw the runner-up on a box of Wheaties? People generally think little of losers. That makes it all the more hurtful to some when someone like Ted Turner is quoted as saying, “Christianity is for ...read more

    What is authentic discipleship ? Surely it is that which Jesus taught. In this message we look at the terms Jesus laid down for those who would choose to follow him.

    FOLLOWING THE LEADER The Terms of Authentic Discipleship The children’s game ‘following the leader’ has introduced all of us to the concept that Jesus sought to initiate among his DISCIPLES. Watching, walking, imitating, responding as the leader does. Matthew 16:21-28 The setting and context ...read more
