    Our identity is not based on our achievements or mistakes, but on God's design and purpose for us, and we should strive to understand and live out this identity in Christ.

    Good morning, church family! Today we will be focusing on one of my favorite verses in the Bible, Ephesians 2:10. This verse says, "For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do." Isn't that awesome? It reminds us that we are not ...read more

    Contributed by Scott Spencer on Apr 6, 2016

They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts, praising God and enjoying the favor of all the people. (+ NIV) ...read more

    Fear

    Contributed by Robbie Parsons on Sep 9, 2021
     | 3,722 views

    Fear is a very real emotion that seems to be hitting us all around these days. People seem to be more prone to fear and anxiety with COVID and it's new Delta variant. We should not fear to freeze us in place, taking our focus off of God, but we should rely on Him to help us through our fear.

    Fear is one of those words that we know what it is, but it would be hard to sit down and write a definition of it. Definition: An unpleasant, often strong emotion caused by anticipation or awareness of danger; anxious concern; reason for alarm or danger. We have had a lot of fear in the last ...read more
