    The world teaches that in order to show love one must accept & tolerate sinful behavior. Scripture teaches to that we are not to conform to this world, but to stay true to God’s word and live in holiness. This sermon can be heard at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=np9gk5cdyrQ

    I read somewhere about President Calvin Coolidge being a man of few words. There’s a story that tells of this trait: One Sunday after returning home from church, Mrs. Coolidge asked him, “What was the sermon about today?” Coolidge replied sharply, “Sin.” “Well, what did he say about it, Calvin?” ...read more

    God is Love February 14, 2021 Well, today is Valentine’s Day and I was going to hold off on this attribute of God until the end, but it seemed very appropriate to talk about today.

    In Malachi 3:1-4 we see the Father's "Gift of Love" in the promise of His Son through a series of predictions (i.e., announcements regarding the future). In verses 1-4 we can see love from (1) The Coming Lord (Malachi 3:1-2) and from (2) The Purifying Lord (Malachi 3:3–4).

    Malachi 3:1-4 [3:1]"Behold, I send my messenger, and he will prepare the way before me. And the Lord whom you seek will suddenly come to his temple; and the messenger of the covenant in whom you delight, behold, he is coming, says the LORD of hosts.

    Listening With Love

    Sermon for Advent 4, Year A. Sermon contrasts how Joseph could have treated Mary and how he actually acted toward her. Mary has a story (and thus Jesus) because Joseph listened with love and showed mercy.

    Preparing for 2020: Listening with Love I feel for Joseph. Not only because he’s often overlooked, but in some ways I understand what it’s like to be Joseph. In 1994 I found a new level of solidarity with Joseph. The children’s director concluded that the pastor’s grandson didn’t need a “speaking” ...read more

    Today's message is given on Valentine's Day, and it looks at God's valentine's card for us revealing His incredible, unbelievable, frightening, limitless, and uncommon love for us.

    The Prayer Of Love Series

     | 12,201 views

    John 17 is the longest prayer of Jesus in the entire Gospels. It's sometimes referred to as Christ's High Priestly prayer... but I regard that as being a far too sterile description of what is truly Jesus' prayer of love for His bride.

    Children have very simple views of life… and of love. The following are children’s views on the topic of love. A 7 year old said – “If falling love is anything like learning how to spell, I don’t want to do it. It takes too long.” A 5 year old boy – “Once I’m in kindergarten, I’m going to find me ...read more

    The reasons to stop passing judgment on one another There reasons to “ACT IN LOVE” To act in love means we see the person as someone for whom Christ died.

    Act in Love (Romans 14:13-15) 13 Therefore let us stop passing judgment on one another. Instead, make up your mind not to put any stumbling block or obstacle in the way of a brother or sister. 14 I am convinced, being fully persuaded in the Lord Jesus, that nothing is unclean in itself.

    Led By Love

    Never once did Jesus fail in this, not in his heartbreak or his anger, not in his joy or his betrayal. Jesus Led By Love. His default has always been love! He led with love because He was led by love! I believe it’s time for the church to be “Led By Love” so we can lead with love!

    The last months and most recently the last few weeks have been pretty challenging for us all. I heard one pastor say that this has been the toughest season he's ever led through from leading through this COVID 19, the political insanity, the news insanity, to the most recent events of the ...read more
