    To be an effective Church we must be pliable clay in God's hand.

    "God's Work of Art" Jeremiah 18:1-11 I have entitled this sermon, "God's Work of Art," but I am unsure as to whether this is an appropriate title or not. Let's see where we go from here, and perhaps you can let me know if I gave this sermon a proper name. Nowadays, pottery-making is an art ...read more

    Contributed by Lynn Malone on Jul 25, 2017
     | 8,838 views

    Generosity is at the core of a disciple's life. Jesus calls us to generous living, and generosity begins with our money.

    Do we believe it’s possible to live a generous life? Do we believe it’s important to live a generous life? Do we believe it’s necessary to live a generous life? We’ve spent the last four weeks reflecting on how to live generously in every respect of discipleship as United Methodists—our prayers, ...read more

    Contributed by Keith Broyles on Oct 7, 2014
     | 6,080 views

    As people of faith we need to be people of prayer but even more than that, people of breakthrough prayer, asking God to break through in situations where there is nothing else we can do. We need breakthrough prayer in our churches.
