    Make no mistake - we are soldiers for Christ. As soldiers, we have a duty to do what He has told us to do: Love & pray for our enemies - including those of the Islamic faith.

    It is fitting that we start this sermon by coming to an understanding of just who we are. Put in its simplest terms, we are soldiers of Jesus Christ. No Christian should ever doubt that. And, as soldiers, we must have certain knowledge and perform certain duties. 2 TIMOTHY 2:3 states, ‘Endure ...read more

    Imagine a church where everyone is your greatest cheerleader. They believe you can do it. They help you do it. They help when you stumble, and they're thrilled when you succeed. Barnabas in Acts is the perfect example of how to encourage one another.

    The devil, according to an old story, once advertised his tools for sale. On the date of the sale, the tools were placed for public inspection; each marked with a price. It was a treacherous lot of implements…hatred, envy, jealousy, deceit, lying, pride, and so on. Laid apart from the rest ...read more
