    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Dec 15, 2021
     | 2,811 views

    Every believer ought to be a philanthropist in that they seek the welfare of those around them. That is not to say that we support ungodly behavior, but that we seek to assist those in need.

    An Offering Given in Purity Matthew 6: 1-4 Today we begin a new chapter in our study of the Sermon on the Mount, but it is just a continuation of what we have studied in the past. We are still dealing with the message Jesus preached to the multitudes. His focus has shifted somewhat, but He ...read more

    John 13:34-35 tells us about Jesus’ love for his disciples.

    If You Love Me Premium Sermon

     | 1,098 views

    The sermon explores the challenge of obeying Jesus' commands of love, forgiveness, and mercy, and the role of the Holy Spirit in empowering believers to live out these commands.

    I think we can all admit here today that obedience is difficult. It’s difficult to learn, difficult to teach, and it’s a difficult process to watch play out in the lives of others around us. It’s not something we’re good at, hard wired for, or frankly… enjoy. Once upon a time, there was a young ...read more

    This sermon explores the concept of unhindered forgiveness made possible through Jesus' sacrifice, replacing the Old Testament's sacrificial system, and the availability of this forgiveness to all who confess and believe.

    Welcome back church! Today we’re going to continue on in our series, Unhindered.

    God loves us so much that He continues to pursue us even when we rebel against Him. So He desires that we pursue Him with that same fervor.

    As most of you know, I met Mary the summer after my freshman year at the University of Arizona when we were both working as Student Hosts for the orientation of incoming freshmen.
