    The old covenant is a corporate affair between Yahweh and Israel, The new covenant does not involve a corporate action, indeed it is an individual and uniquely personal relationship with God’s own people brokered by and in Christ Jesus. prophet Jeremiah b

    I want to start from what a covenant is not. Covenant is not a contract. It is more than that.

    We are studying the church at Sardis. How do you wake up a dead church or a dead believer? Learn how Christians and churches can fall into a coma and how important it is to stay awake in your relationship with Jesus.

    I had a dream the other night. I was dreaming that I was asleep. Yes, I know that sounds very strange - but then my dreams often are very strange - perhaps an outgrowth of my personality. Anyway - I dreamed that I was asleep and that I at some point wished to wake up. That’s where the trouble ...read more

    based on 15 ratings
     | 6,386 views

    People know about God, listen to people talk about God, and even claim to be Christian. Yet many still feel far from God. A relationship with God is like drinking coffee. How do we move from doing to being?

     | 11,237 views

    A simple message to help us understand the incredible depth of the love of God in the birth of Jesus and his purpose in sending him so we might have a real and personal relationship with him (rather than knowing about him).

    As I was praying and preparing for this message, I knew what God had placed on my heart to share, but I couldn’t come up with any clever, cute, funny stories like I’ve had in the past. Tonight, I’m just going to shoot straight with you if I may. It’s like on those rare occasions when I do drink ...read more

    Practice Missional Living: Turning Worship Into Witness And Community Into Commission Series

    Contributed by Ron Auch Jr on Jun 8, 2025
     | 309 views

    Jesus didn’t say, “Attend Me.” He said, “Follow Me.” He didn’t say, “Build Me a monument.” He said, “Make disciples.” Missional living is the natural result of authentic faith. It’s what happens when the Church stops simply doing religion and starts living out the mission of Christ.
