    3rd in a 4 part series. When we proclaim faith in Jesus Christ we begin to build a life in faith and a ministry to others. That faith is the rock the church is built on.

    When I first started in the summer seminary program back in the summer of 1992, I had a professor named Dr. Rodney Roberts, who was a United Methodist preacher from New Mexico. I had him for two different classes. Both of these classes were interesting, but the most enlightening was a class in ...read more

    John does not begin his Gospel as the other Gospel accounts do. John transports us to eternity past – before creation, before man – before the existence of time.

    When God Became A Man John 1:1-5, 10-14 John chapter one may not seem like a great Christmas text—but it is the truth behind the story of the angels and shepherds and the Wise Men and the ...read more

    Be Righteous

    There are some doctrines in the Bible I believe are misunderstood. I believe "Righteousness" is one of those words which is not fully understood. In umderstanding this word we can begin to live a righteous life.

    Righteousness Romans 10:1-10 Vs.3 There is a self righteousness and the righteousness of God Righteousness: The moral character or act Many times people struggle with attempting to live the Christian life in themselves or attempting to please God by creating a standard of laws that they believe ...read more

    My series continues based on Max Lucado's book Just Like Jesus. In this sermon, we learn that having a pure heart begins with praying for one, and then continues with the necessary weeding and seeding.

    Introduction: A. How many of you would consider yourselves to be a good gardener? Do you have a green thumb? B. Here’s a little piece I found called “Top 8 Things I Have Learned About Gardening.” #8. Nothing ever looks like it does on the seed packet. #7. Whichever garden tool ...read more

    “This is what is written: The Christ will suffer and rise from the dead on the third day, and repentance and forgiveness of sins will be preached in His name to all nations, beginning in Jerusalem” Luke 24:47.

    In four short chapters we move from tragedy to triumph, from despair to joy, from emptiness to fullness. This book begins with famine and funerals, and concludes with a wedding and the joyful birth of a son.

    The final chapter of this quiet drama takes place before the town gate of Bethlehem, where all important transactions were conducted. Here is where the matter of Ruth the foreigner would be settled. After the late-night rendezvous of chapter 3, Boaz goes right to work; he finds his kinsman and ...read more

    The sermon is intended to remind all of us that despite our mistakes and errors Christ redeemed us from our sin and gives us a new beginning. This is most evident in the birth of the Christ.

    It is a special time of the year, a time when we focus on the gift of God in the person of Jesus Christ. For many while this season is intended to bring joy and renew hope in humanity this season can be difficult for many.

    Teaching Our Children The Way To Go. Series

    Contributed by Dr. Amen Howard on Aug 23, 2013
     | 7,410 views

    From the beginning, the family has played a critical role in the outworking of God's purposes on earth. As the fundamental building block of society, it was designed to provide the context for the nurture and training of each succeeding generation.

    The family was also designed to reflect and flesh out spiritual truth. Scripture uses the imagery of the family to speak of our relationship with God in Christ. As believers, we are adopted children in the household of God (Rom. 8:15-17). We are also heirs with Christ (Rom. 8:17; Eph. 1:11; 3:6). ...read more

    Religion to most is external- what you look like. Jesus says that a religion that is worth anything begins internally with a relationship with Him and will be lived out to the widows and orphans that we meet in life.
