Gifts, risk, and the return of the King
We are deeply flawed yet deeply loved; God’s law reveals our need, and only Christ’s grace can heal and restore us.
If you walked in today feeling a little weary, worried, or worn-out, you’re in good company. We bring our Mondays and our midnights, our sighs and our secrets, into the same sanctuary. Some of us carry guilt that nags like a dull ache. Others carry questions that won’t sit down. And a few of us ...read more
Scripture: Romans 3:9-20
Topics: Sin, Humanity
Through union with Christ’s death and resurrection, believers receive a new identity, freedom from sin, and the power to live transformed lives.
Friend, take a deep breath. The God who raised Jesus Christ from the dead is nearer than your next heartbeat. He is not reluctant. He is not distant. He is ready—ready to speak life where you’ve heard only the rustle of regret, ready to steady trembling hands and tired hearts. I think of a ...read more
Scripture: Romans 6:4-11
Topics: Freedom, Sin
God’s grace is a free gift we cannot earn or buy; it transforms our hearts from striving and bitterness to rest, faith, and love.
If you’ve ever tried to buy a birthday gift for someone who already has everything, you know the head-scratching feeling it brings. What do you give the person who lacks nothing? Now lift your eyes a little higher and imagine bringing your best to the God who has never needed a thing. We sometimes ...read more
Scripture: Acts 8:20-23
Topics: Bitterness, Sin
God’s mercy meets us in our deepest failures, offering forgiveness, cleansing, and restoration when we honestly confess and turn to Him with humble hearts.
If you’ve ever sat in the quiet and felt the ache of regret—the kind that whispers, “How did I end up here?”—you’re in good company. If you’ve replayed a conversation you can’t unsay, a click you can’t undo, a glance that went too far, a promise you didn’t keep, you’re not alone. The Bible doesn’t ...read more
Scripture: Psalm 51:1-13
Topics: Sin, Confession
John didn't want his readers to willingly fall short of God's holy standard. If you are a true believer you will not want to sin. Having a desire not to sin is one of the proofs you are a believer.
Review The Gnostics said they had no sin, blaming their sinful acts on their body. John was setting the record straight for his readers. The bad new John tells us is that we do sin. The good news is that if we confess our sin God is faithful and righteous to forgive us our sin and cleanse us ...read more

Luke 15:11-16:1 By looking at the story of the prodigal son, we can see how we fall into sinful states, what it means to be in a siful state, and how we get out of the sinful states we are in.
“Playing Pitfall” “How we get into and out of sinful states.” When I was younger my family owned an “Atari,” how many of you remember those? It was great state of the art technology! You had this joystick and just one little button to mash. I thought it was great. Even ...read more
The Body of Christ here on Earth has been stained with sin. We are called to put away sin from our presence, and if we truly are of the "Body of Christ" we will strive to put sin out of our midst.
Let us Put Away Sin within Our Churches We sometimes criticize others unfairly. We don’t know all their circumstances, nor their motives. Only God, who is aware of all the facts, is able to judge people righteously. John Wesley told of a man he had little respect for because he considered him to ...read more

Five of the reasons that we need to take sexual sin seriously.
What Were Their Excuses For Their Sexual Exploits? 1. “You can’t tell me what to do.” - v. 12 - “All things are lawful for me. . .” - This is an abuse of the idea of Christian liberty. They took the genuine freedom that we have in Christ and used it as an avenue to pursue sin. - As Paul points ...read more

A man who carries a cat by the tail learns something he can learn no other way! Sin is the same way. When it sidelines us we discover how it breaks our fellowship with God. We see this in the life of Sampson. Let’s study it together!
Introduction "Out of bounds" That’s what every referee says when your foot crossses the little unforbidden white line. The sad thing is, when this occurs, not only are we, the player out of bounds but the whole team, the coach and the fans are too! Often times, others are penalized because of our ...read more

If you want to know where your life is headed then take a look at those you associate with. Samson ignored the warning signs. The cost of low living is always high, let’s see why.
Introduction More often than not, many are so short sighted in their walk with the Lord that they are looking only as far as their next fleshly pleasure. The cost of low living is high! We have the best example of this in the life of Samson. He failed to heed the warning signs. He could of ...read more
