    When we take the time to read and meditate in the scriptures, it is very obvious that we are all called to gather, but the sad reality is that this alone does not necessarily mean that we are following and serving God.

    There are many people in this world that wish to follow Christ, isn’t that true? How many people gathered here today wish to follow Christ? All of us here have the deep desire in our heart to follow our Lord and Savior. In fact, this desire was what motivated us to find a congregation where we ...read more

    There’s power in making the decision to give the gift He really wants: to "follow Him." But in this story in Luke, 3 men tell Jesus that that is precisely what they want to do. So why isn’t Jesus content with their gift?

He has not yet gotten around to purchasing an acceptable gift for his wife for last Christmas. He did give her something last ...read more
