    "We're #1!"

    The message explores the idea of being the best and the greatest. However, in the Kingdom of God, that is defined in ways that this world cannot understand. In fact, that should not even be our goal...serving Christ with our all is the priority.

    Stand & Read - Luke 22:24-30 “And there arose also a dispute among them as to which one of them was regarded to be greatest. [25] And He said to them, "The kings of the Gentiles lord it over them; and those who have authority over them are called ’Benefactors.’ [26] "But not so with you, but let ...read more

    Just as the physical and mental health crisis continue to worsen in this country, another health crisis is growing at an alarming pace, and yet it doesn't even make the news. I'm talking about our spiritual health crisis--the true "silent killer."

    Some of you may remember that in my last sermon I talked about how this time of the year is the time we typically look back on our lives and consider just how much God has blessed us and our families. And despite the hustle and bustle of this holiday season, I hope you've taken the time to do ...read more

    The Lord’s Supper is so significant that when astronauts Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin because the first people in history to walk on the Moon, Aldrin celebrated the auspicious occasion by taking the Lord’s Supper.

He gave the church two visible symbols (called “ordinances”) as reminders of His death. These two ordinances are: Baptism and the Lord’s Supper. The Lord’s Supper is an object ...read more
