    The main point of this sermon is to encourage believers to actively work on their personal salvation, live blameless lives, and glorify God through their actions, shining as lights in a dark world.

    Good morning, church family! Today, we're diving into a passage from Philippians. I love how Arnold J. Toynbee once said, "Man's true end is to glorify God and to enjoy Him forever."

    When The Lights Go Out

    Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 30, 2025
     | 207 views

    Jesus rekindles our passion to shine. His authority sends us, His Spirit empowers us, and His mission becomes our greatest thrill again

    It happens slowly. You rarely notice when the first lights begin to flicker. A bulb gives up in the back hallway. One more goes dark in the kitchen. The living room dims a little, but you don’t think much about it. You just squint more. You buy a cheaper lamp. You hold your phone screen a little ...read more

In a world that runs fast and talks loud, your soul has come to the quiet room of God’s Word. Here, grace meets grit. Here, real ...read more

    Are You Light Sensitive? Series

    Jesus Christ is like the perfect photograph of the Father - not just physical likeness but His entire personality and character. As He shines His light on your life - are you photo-sensitive to His character?

    How many of us would use our drivers license photo for a portrait of ourselves? I can’t seem to get a picture of myself that I like - I look at it and say "that just doesn’t represent me very well." Now - in fact the photo is pretty accurate - it is my ideal of what I want to look like that I am ...read more

    A poem once declared "I'd rather be a could-be if I cannot be an are, because a could-be is a maybe who is reaching for a star." The story of Joseph tells of God's desire to make "could-be" of all His followers.

    OPEN: Milton Berle was a comedian a few decades back and he wrote a poem that went like this: “I'd rather be a could-be if I cannot be an are; because a could-be is a maybe who is reaching for a star. I'd rather be a has-been than a might-have-been, by far; for a might-have-been has never been, ...read more
