    The Table . . . A common everyday item. Every house has one. A simple table or a meeting place. Perhaps a classroom. Could it be that a  simple table is really a blank canvas?

    The Table Pt. 2 - Table Manners I. Introduction I don't know what your home was like growing up, but in my house we were taught table manners. In fact, you need to pray for me as I try to find something to do while I am grounded this week for even playing that video. We had some very specific ...read more

    God has opened the way to having a close, personal and intimate relationship with Him. Are we seeking after that type of relationship?

HIS UNCHANGING PLAN HAS ALWAYS BEEN TO ADOPT US INTO HIS OWN FAMILY BY BRINGING US TO HIMSELF THROUGH JESUS CHRIST IN ORDER TO ...read more

    Embracing Grace

    Contributed by Isaac Butterworth on Apr 2, 2022
     | 3,280 views

    The vast majority of people do not "accept" Christ (Luke 4:24) but refuse the "favor" (grace) He offers (v. 19). God has sent Christ to offer His grace. We must embrace the grace offered in Christ. Luke shows us how.

    There’s a key word in this passage that I would like to point out. It is not obvious in the English, so it’s a bit tricky. But the word ‘favor’ in verse 19 and the word ‘acceptable’ in verse 24 render the same Greek word, which is dektos. In fact, in the King James Version it is translated ...read more

    It’s about God not about us. It’s about recognizing God as Supreme, Holy, all Powerful and the source of our Salvation. That is the attitude we are to bring into this sanctuary on Sunday morning not what do you have for me today God.

    The Church is not your Gas Station Psalm 96 Matthew 22:15-22 Identifying what church means to a person can include all kinds of perspectives. You might hear things like, “a church is a community of believers.” Or you might hear “a church exists to spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ.” Or maybe ...read more
