    God uses ordinary people’s courage and compassion to lift others from life’s pits, reminding us to act rightly and help those in need now.

    Some days feel like pits, don’t they? Not just potholes in the road, but deep, echoing cisterns of disappointment, decisions, and delays. You pray and the sky seems quiet.

  • Building On The Rock Series

     | 3,358 views

    Those who heed the message of a false prophet are unwise, building their hope on an unstable foundation. Jesus discusses "doing" vs. "doing his will," as many who proclaim to do works in His name will wind up in hell.

    Our message today picks up where we left off, where Jesus warned us about false prophets who are ravenous wolves in sheep’s clothing (cf. Matthew 7:15-20). When I preached from that passage, I began with the fairy tale of “Little Red Riding Hood” and the wolf as our opening illustration. This ...read more

    I think it’s safe to say that the majority of us want to become everything God wants us to be, the problem is that we fall short of God’s perfect plan for our lives. Too often we take matters into our own hands and mess up God’s plan for us. We end up set

    On an overhead slide draw four symbols a star, a plus sign, a circle and a square. Then ask your audience to pick one of the symbols and then share which sign they picked with the person sitting closest to them.
