    The final sermon in the Kindred United Series, this sermon shows the difference between "religion" and "relationship", and shows how we should do more than just sit in a pew on Sunday; we should serve others in need, and do so in love.

    Beyond The Church Walls--Just For The Religious This week, we wrap up the teaching series "Kindred United". This series, nine messages in all, ended up going much longer than I had expected. We have learned, first of all, that the overarching thought of "loving God, loving others" starts with ...read more

    Sermon discusses Mary’s willingess to become God’s handmaiden. Three lessons are also examined: We are never alone, We are part of a greater plan, and Being faithful leads to greater opportunites to serve God.

    In the midst of the storms of our lives, Jesus says there is something we must NOT do: worry. But I have a problem with that. I worry a lot. So, why shouldn’t I be anxious and worried when life throws so much at me?

    OPEN: The old sea captain was quizzing a new crew member to see how he’d do at sea. “What steps would you take if a sudden storm came up on the starboard?” he asked the young man. “Well, sir,” said the crew member, I’d throw out an anchor, sir.” “What would you do if another storm sprang up ...read more

    The evidence of our Christian sincerity is demonstrated in the way we treat one another. God's word to His people is that we would love our neighbor as ourselves. Zechariah confronts this matter with a reminder of Israel's historical experience.

    In Zechariah 7 a delegation came from the Jews in Bethel asking the question: “Should I mourn and fast in the fifth month, as I have done for so many years?”i During the 70 years of exile in Babylon, the Jews had been observing four fasts in memory of the destruction of Jerusalem.
