    This message recognizes our Church's upcoming 99th anniversary. In this message I used the old gospel sonmg "We've Come This Far By Faith" to illustrate the continued journey of this Church.

    You’ve Come This Far By Faith! Scripture: Second Corinthians 5:7; Proverbs 3:5-6; James 1:12 Good morning Strangers Rest.

    When we are guilty of a lack of trust, like Elijah, we know that this sin too is forgiven. Our God loves us and quietly, gently notes our sin, assures us of His forgiveness, and then points us in the direction that we should go.

    Life is like crossing a sea. One of the things we learn as we cross the sea of life is that it's not always smooth sailing. But every born-again Christian has Someone in the boat Who will calm the storm and guarantee they will get to the other side.

    (I cannot in full honesty claim credit for this message. Of course, the Holy Spirit should always be credited but the main idea and most of the passages are from a message I came across many years ago. I do not remember where or who it was from except it spoke to me and I knew it was anointed. ...read more
