    The way we work reveals the true God we believe in - either the god of mammon or the Lord God and His Son Jesus Christ. Our witness for Jesus Christ is either helped or hindered by what we do at our place of employment. This sermon is about effective wit

    Prior to sending the disciples out in ministry, Jesus sought to prepare them for the task ahead. He did not promise it would be easy, but He did promise to provide for them. We share the same promises. Service isn't always easy, but the Lord is faithful to provide.

    Conditioned to Serve Matthew 10: 9-15 As we continue to examine the instructions Jesus gave the disciples prior to sending them out to share their faith, we discover additional benefit for our lives and witness as well. While these were sent solely to the house of Israel, prior to Jesus’ death and ...read more
