    Waiting is a difficult thing for us to do. Much of our lives is spent waiting in lines, on hold, in traffic, at the doctor's office. Do you ever wonder why God makes us wait? We'll take a look at a David's life and see what he learned from waiting on God.

    Title: Waiting on God Text: 2 Samuel/Psalm 27:14 Intro I’m so excited to be here with you this morning! We are starting a new series called In the Meantime.

    We tend to think of our spiritual gifts as unique units when they are all fruits or manifestation of the Holy Spirit within us. We have what I call "persistent" gifts but there are times when the Holy Spirit gives us other gifts for a season.

    The division (fueled by things like - COVID, masks and a presidential election...etc) between people who were redeemed and set free by the blood of Jesus and who claim to be following after Him... must stop!

    How Christians live in a marriage with a non-Christian spouse.

Peter’s particular focus was on how we live under the ...read more

    Some of the hardest headwinds we face often blow from our own back porch. It’s funny how life works: strangers may applaud you, acquaintances may admire you, but the folks who know your middle name and saw your backyard mistakes can struggle to see God’s handiwork in you. They remember the messy ...read more
