     | 18,713 views

    The storms of life distract us from focusing on God – learn what Jesus focused on in times of trouble.

    Most of the time in our lives we focus on what to do if things go wrong. We come up with contingency plans in case we are late for a flight.

    As a Christian; and see if you will agree with me on this, its so easy to get caught up in the work of the ministry or the “Call” so much so that we can become out of touch with the “Caller” We can become so focused and driven to build the “Church” that w

    “A Letter Of Intent” Mt 18:11 For the Son of man is come to save that which was lost. 12 How think ye? if a man have an hundred sheep, and one of them be gone astray, doth he not leave the ninety and nine, and goeth into the mountains, and seeketh that which is gone astray? 13 And if so be that ...read more

    This sermon is about dealing with temptatoin. It is based on Rick Warren’s The Purpose-Driven Life.

    Occupy Jesus Series

    Contributed by Joe Adaline on Nov 13, 2011
     | 4,524 views

    The occupy Wall Street movement has missed the mark. It is faceless and pointless. People need Jesus as the center of life, a more abundant life.

    In recent days, I have watched protesters, anarchists and the homeless camp in our nation’s parks and sit outside businesses and city halls with signs of protest. What is their point, what are they doing? Let’s look at a typical day in the life of a protestor. 10AM get up, 11 AM smoke, 12 noon, ...read more

    As we’ll see this morning, even though God’s people faced the daunting task of building the Temple, it was a time of jubilant joy and unparalleled unity.

    Celebrating God’s Provision Almost every pastor I know either gets excited about a building program or dreads it like the plague. Some feel very inadequate to the task.
