    The work of the church is found in confidence in it’s leadership, and setting an example for others to follow.

    1. This kind of King elicits fear in us. 2. This kind of King inspires hope in us. 3. This kind of King makes us heirs with him.

    Very often, at Christmas, we hear stories retold, like Mark Twain’s "A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur’s Court", where King Arthur dresses in peasant’s garb and visits the subjects of his kingdom. The king lays aside his royal robes and privileges in order to identify with life outside the ...read more

    Uses the DaVinci Code’s view that the Christian faith is oppressive to women as a platform for demonstrating how true Christianity views women and men as created equally in the image of God.

    Over the last two weeks I have been preaching a series called Counterfeit Christianity, to reveal the truth about the false Christianity that is being presented in the media, particularly by a popular fictional book written by Dan Brown called The DaVinci Code. Even though this book is a work of ...read more

    Has someone put a little "dis" on the front of your grace? Elizabeth knew what that was like. Her freedom was hindered, her past was haunting her, her conditions were less than what they should be, her religion was empty and she her efforts were fruitless

    When I was little, if I had something on my face, my mother would often spit on a napkin or her thumb, reach over into my space and wipe the grit, or food, or dirt off of my face. It is a proven fact that a mother’s spit contains the same ingredients found in Formula 409! When we don’t look right, ...read more

    What must Mary have thought when she first opened the door and found a group of Iranian astrologers, there to celebrate the birth of her son? These characters seem so inappropriate in the Christmas narrative, but maybe that’s the point?

    The Xmas season is over! We’ve wished each other a Merry Xmas AND a Happy New Year, and now the festive season is PAST. The holidays (for most of us) are over. The time for singing carols and wishing peace and goodwill to all is finished. The presents have been handed out. The cards have all been ...read more

    Jesus told three parables about lost sheep, a lost coin and a lost son. The stories highlight the truth that missing people matter to God. God places tremendous value on every individual. All heaven rejoices when one person repents and turns to God.

    “Welcome Home” Luke 15:11-27 Those of you who have had or currently have sons can closely identify with the story Jesus told about a rebellious son. The rebellious son was the teenager and the other son was obedient and probably in his twenties. In Luke chapter 15 Luke records that Jesus made ...read more

    So many of us pervert the simple gospel of salvation by faith alone. Pauls describes the "True Gospel" in Galatians 3. (Continues the 3:16 series.

    Introduction I. Our base verse this week is found in Galatians 3:16. A. 16 Now the promises were spoken to Abraham and to his seed. He does not say, “And to seeds,” as referring to many, but rather to one, And to your seed,” that is, Christ B. The motivation for the writing of these words ...read more
