    Have a good Thanksgiving? • Turkey or ham debate? • Turkey, ham, goat debate? • Venison or bacon debate? Both please!

    You don’t need to answer these questions out loud. I’m going to ask you to be honest with yourself: • Do you ever grow tired of hearing sermons about Christmas? • Do you kind of glaze when you know you are about to hear the same story you’ve heard so many times? • On the flipside, what was the most ...read more

     | 1,103 views

    Did you read something new in Gods Word this past week? Something familiar with new eyes? Did the Holy Spirit convict you to open your bible and allow God’s Word to speak to you?

    Today our key passage is found in Romans 4:17. The purpose of the message today is to remind us that God is not shackled by circumstances or natural barriers. Quick back story as you get to Romans 4:17 • Apparently, Paul had finished his work in the east, and planned to visit Rome on his way to ...read more

    Community

    In this past week, did you? Did you share the Gospel with someone? What did you do that brought God glory? Church, when I ask you these questions each week, it is actually a self-evaluation for me. Some weeks I score touchdowns. Some weeks I fumble miserably!

    Since we are hosting 5th Sunday tonight, I’ve been thinking about Community in the last 10 days or so. So, this week I’d like to examine: • The Purpose of community • The Importance of community • The Responsibility of community • And wrap it up tonight with: o The Inspiration of ...read more

    • A couple of weeks ago, I mentioned that when greeting people some people reply “I am blessed”. • Today's message is titled "Blessings"

    • A few months ago, in a message titled “The Danger in the Miracle”, I shared that I would rather live from blessing to blessing, instead of miracle to miracle. • I explained it like this: • A blessing is still God’s power, but it flows through natural channels. Blessings are better that ...read more

    Passover (Pt.1 ) Series

    Contributed by Delray Lentz on Dec 11, 2025
     | 41 views

    Here’s a rhetorical question for you, church: Would you rather have a pastor who has it all figured out, or one who is still listening to the Lord, studying His word, and being guided by Holy Spirit to disciple?

    This has been on my heart for a long while. Many of you know, I’m a little unorthodoxed in how I preach. This message is probably more traditionally a spring season message, but for some strange reason, I have this urgency to share this now. Let me begin by reminding you that I believe the bible ...read more
