    Four family privilges we receive when we become God’s children through faith in Jesus Christ.

    (Note: This sermon was introduced with a drama called "Love of Another Kind" and a song called "Faithful Father"). The reality is that not all fathers are faithful. My father wasn’t faithful. When I was born he was only 16 years old, still just a kid himself. And by the time I was 3 years old, he ...read more

    My first sermon of 2008, using the "Great Commission" passage to layout a strategery for the coming year.

    Intro: Status Quo is unacceptable! Seems a little odd saying that to start of a new year, isn’t it? After all, don’t we all make resolutions to start the year off? Some want to lose weight…some want to quit a bad habit. Others want to make better use of time…or maybe just try to be a better ...read more
