    The intensity of God’s love is immense, that love which GAVE heaven’s glorious Son. Then that love provided the means where sinners can be MADE into the children of God. Are you prepared for rejection for Christ, for the world hates Christ’s own?

    Many times when we read the story of Jonah, our focus is on the significance of the great fish. But should that be our focus? This message looks at the message of Jonah that we often miss.

    Tonight, we’re going to have an opportunity to get into a story that’s very familiar to all of us. But I want to look at it from the vantage point of “Who was God trying to catch?” The Holy Spirit speaks to each one of us and He speaks to us individually with words specifically to us. But there ...read more

    Last week we had someone come into our Wednesday evening gathering making forceful statements about the KJV Bible and other Bibles as well. This is an attempt to help our people understand where the KJV came from and where it stands among other Bibles.

    What About the KJV Bible? Please stand as we read our newest memory Scripture together … 2 Timothy 4:3-4 “The time will come when men will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears ...read more

    Jesus told the rich young ruler to sell everything that he had, give it to the poor and follow Him. Do I have to give away everything to follow Christ? Do I have to sell all that I have in order to please Him?

    If there are parts of the Bible you follow and parts of the Bible you don’t, I want to ask you a question: what source of truth is greater than the Bible? Where do you turn for real truth, true truth? Where do you go for wisdom?

    The Bible is so available; it’s as close as reaching out our hand. The Bible is on our phones and our nightstands in hotels all across our nation. The Bible is handed down from generation to generation. Around eighty million Bibles are printed every year and it is thought that there are between ...read more

     | 3,368 views

    The Bible talks less about what makes a great leader than it does about what makes a great servant. What is it about God's leaders that requires them to be servants of others?

    Today we are putting a man's name into consideration as a future Elder. I hadn't actually planned a sermon on Eldership (the sermon series I'm preaching through is something I'm working with other preachers on) but the text seemed to be a good groundwork for understanding what ...read more

Johnson, respectively, are partnering to offer Bible studies for Christians who are seeking to grow in their relationship with Jesus. This is a Bible study lesson, not a sermon. The ...read more
