    Why is Christianity in America declining? Why are professions of faith and baptisms on the decline. Christianity is not a religion but a relationship. Church is not a place we go or something we do it is God's people doing His will.

    I have a very serious question to start us off with this morning. Why is Christianity on the decline here in America? I am sure there are probably as many answers as there are people. • Could it be because Christianity is competing with so many other religions? • Could it be because ...read more

    "Weeding the garden" is something we believe is a good thing, but many times doing this can destroy the good roots around them. Jesus helps us grasp why working to remove the 'weeds' from your life is not necessarily His way of leading you.

    Right… at first glance you may quickly think I am going to try convincing you how wrong it is to smoke marijuana… or to do drugs of any kind. No… this is not that kind of ‘weed removal’ encouragement… although… wait… OK… I’ll refrain! Rather, this is an admonition to be careful about being SO ...read more
