    Something is missing from the church today, and people are starting to notice. Too often the church fails to offer what it advertises: life.

    3. The Greatest Commandment February 28, 2010 Love your Enemy Mrs. Jones wanted her fourth grade class to learn some valuable life lessons so one day she gave them an assignment. Each student was instructed to get their parents to tell them a story and they would be expected to find the moral of ...read more

    As a Christian; and see if you will agree with me on this, its so easy to get caught up in the work of the ministry or the “Call” so much so that we can become out of touch with the “Caller” We can become so focused and driven to build the “Church” that w

    “A Letter Of Intent” Mt 18:11 For the Son of man is come to save that which was lost. 12 How think ye? if a man have an hundred sheep, and one of them be gone astray, doth he not leave the ninety and nine, and goeth into the mountains, and seeketh that which is gone astray? 13 And if so be that ...read more

    This sermon is a take off from a previous sermon of mine entitled "For the Love of Christ." It discusses the return of Christ and how we must live today for our hope of tomorrow.

    WE’VE ALL HEARD ABOUT ··· The return of Jesus Christ, and how He will then take us home with Him. WHEN I WAS VERY YOUNG ··· I was afraid of Jesus. My older brother said if I wasn’t careful, Jesus would reach out from the radio and pull me in with Him. THAT’S THE SAME BROTHER ··· Who told me I ...read more

    Paul Harvey said: "Too many Christians no longer are fishermen but keepers of the acquarim." God used the death of Stephen, and persecution to move the church beyond the walls of Jerusalem in order to complete his "mission" stated in Acts 1:8

    Yes, I Love You, More Than You Can Imagine

    Jesus asks Peter if he loves him and if he is truly ready to become a disciple. It is a question that Jesus asks of us today. If we know he loves us, how come we don't always do what he wants us to do which is to spread his message to others.

    Our reading this morning comes from the book of John Chapter 21: verses 1-19. It is a story that we might be familiar with, but if not it is an easy story to follow. It was written by the Apostle John, who by now if many of you don’t know is my favorite Gospel writer. John to me is the ...read more

    The politician who sells out to special interests and who has no regard for life is not worthy of our loyalty. We need to get involved in the political process with a servant mentality.

    We have here in our church a long-standing tradition of the separation of church and state. We do not get involved in partisan politics. We do not support candidates, we do not give platforms to those running for political office. This sets us off from some other churches, where it is not at all ...read more

    When we are in the midst of despair take some time to remember those times when God has been faithful, when He has spoken to us and has worked in power.

    The Discipline of Remembering June 5, 2011 Psalm 77 Intro: Remembering is an important spiritual discipline, with one very important caution. 31 years ago, a 9yr old boy sat on the left side of the tiny sanctuary, about two thirds of the way back, listening to a visiting choir from some long ...read more

    Why did Herod want to kill the Christ child? His motivation has much in common with those today who want to kill Christmas.

    Our Easter joy is not always immediate. It certainly wasn't immediate for Jesus' first disciples either. Even the empty tomb and the angel's proclamation left them bewildered. It was in remembering Jesus' own words that the Spirit brought them to faith.

    “Why Believe the Good News of Easter,” Luke 24:1-12, Easter Sunday, March 27, 2016 Brothers and sisters, you probably know that this coming Friday is “April Fools’ Day;” a day that is always celebrated every year on the first day of April. It’s a day, when ...read more
