    There are many times when we feel like outcasts - on those occasions Jesus, who is also an outcast, crosses our path and brings us hope.

    What happens when Jesus crosses your path? Well anything can happen can’t it. When Jesus crossed Peter’s path Peter went from an unschooled fisherman to a disciple. When Jesus crossed Matthew’s path Matthew went from hated tax collector to well-loved Gospel writer. When Jesus ...read more

     | 21,979 views

    Today our churches need stretcher-bearers, men and women of faith, to go out and bring the unsaved to hear the Gospel. There are people who will never come to church, unless you personally ask them, because you have influence with them.

    Be Reconciled To Your Brother Series

     | 4,744 views

    Reconciliation begins with confrontation; being brave enough to approach someone to say, “Hey, we need to talk about something.” Rick Warren says that running from a problem and pretending it doesn’t exist is cowardice.

    I want to ask a question to start off our message, and that is, “Whatever happened to reconciliation?” It seems as though there’s not a lot of reconciliation happening in our churches today among Christians. Probably the reason why is because reconciliation begins with confrontation; or rather, ...read more

    In Philippians 1:12–26, Paul writes from prison—but his faith isn’t shaken. This message invites us to consider what truly holds when life tests us. Is Jesus our comfort… or our everything? Let’s explore the difference surrender makes.

But one wants just enough Jesus to feel better— to ease the guilt, to call for help when things go wrong. The other? They’ve given Jesus ...read more

    Ash Wednesday: Christ’s name elicits jeers and rejection from those who don’t know Him. But for the poor in spirit, Christ is Savior, Son of the Living God.

    Why the outcry? Why the outcry when the name or the work of Jesus is mentioned in public? The reaction to the mention of the name is like splashing ice water on people.
