    • Any Star Wars fans here today?

    Today we will be in the book of Colossians. About a month ago, something in Colossians caught my eye, that I wanted to share with you today. In the last month I’ve read Colossians several times. I’ve read it 5-6 times in the last week alone. I’m talking about all 4 chapters y’all!

    This morning we’ll be looking at a particular passage in Colossians, and specifically one verse. Before we get started, I have to ask: • Did you read any scripture this past week for the first time, or • did you see familiar scripture with new eyes? • And equally, if not more important, did you ...read more

  • I Love You Daddy

    Contributed by Delray Lentz on Feb 2, 2023
     | 1,253 views

    Since we are made in His image according to Genesis 1:26, our Heavenly Father must love to hear us say “I love you Daddy”.

    A couple of months back, I reminisced; when years ago, our oldest son Brig was 4 or 5 years old, and I took him with me to a neighborhood park where I was meeting some friends to play basketball. He was playing in the sand box next to the basketball court and walked over to the court and said “I ...read more

     | 1,676 views

    Today’s message will be centered around Acts 1:4-5, and we’ll look at several passages that will bolster this message, and why I believe the body of Christ (the church) needs a collision; now perhaps, more than any other time in our history.

    How many of you are like us, before we go on a trip we say a prayer asking for travel mercies, something like this “Lord, we are praying for a collision”… Y’all are looking a bit confused out there! We’ll get back to that. Today’s message will be centered around Acts 1:4-5, and we’ll look at ...read more

    Everybody comfortable? Good! Now, I’m going to ask something very strange of you today. Since you are good and comfortable, go ahead and move to another seat. In another row or across the aisle. Sometimes, a slight change in perspective can make all the difference!

    Shooting the wounded Last week after church, Lisa told me a story of a person who had been hurt by people at the church she was attending. Uncomfortable yet? Don’t worry it wasn’t CPC! She finished telling the story and the first words out of my mouth were: Shootin’ the wounded! On May 21st 2004 ...read more

    Did the world see Jesus in you this past week? If so, how did the world respond? If not, why not? Did you see Jesus in the world this week? How did you respond?

    This week, I’d kinda gonna begin where we left off last week. This isn’t a second part of a series, simply a quick tie-in. John 21:9 “Then, as soon as they had come to land, they saw a fire of coals there, and fish laid on it, and bread.” John 21:12 “Jesus said to them, “Come and eat breakfast.” ...read more

  • Droughts

     | 764 views

    Last week I asked “Am I the fear-filled Spirit void Peter denying Christ, or the Holy Spirit filled Peter proclaiming the gospel of Jesus”?

    For a large part of 2010 and 2011 our area experienced a major drought. In fact, it was the most severe in about 50 years. Rainfall was well below the seasonal average for both years, with long stretches of 90+ degree days and almost that high for the lows. There was a record stretch of triple ...read more

    Now, I don’t know if you’ve ever hooked a water moccasin...

    I would like to ride piggy-back on Pastor Jeff’s message last week, so you may hear a couple of similar thoughts. Pentecost is one of 7 seasonal feasts the Hebrew people observe. Also called “Feast of Weeks” Pentecost begins on the 50th day after Passover Believers rendered thanks to YHWH for the ...read more

  • A Sower Went Out To Sow

    Contributed by Delray Lentz on Oct 13, 2025
     | 70 views

    But seriously, the word God has for us today, is very direct, heavily relies on scripture, (as most of His messages do), and doesn’t need elaboration.

    Good morning! I have a VERY short message for us today. The same apostle that wrote Romans, wrote (fa-LEE-mon) Philemon. I’m not sure if (fa-LEE-mon) was so short because Paul had a meal waiting, or simply because what he had to say, needed to be succinct, short and sweet! Today…I’ve got lunch ...read more
