    We all know the reality of unanswered prayer, but do we know the why of unanswered prayer?

    In a culture which values its elderly less and less, God calls us as the church to treat the elderly like family and like a fortune.

    When I was a teenager, I thought people in their 50’s were really old. Now, that I’ve recently celebrated my 52nd birthday, I’m not so sure, especially since I’m around so many people here who are still going strong in their 70’s and 80’s. They don’t seem ...read more

    There was no way they could restore the temple to its former glory; it would be nothing in comparison to King Solomon’s temple. It is at this point that God began to teach them, it is not about how impressive the Sanctuary is.

    TITLE: HOW DOES IT LOOK TO YOU NOW? SCRIPTURE: HAGGAI 2:3-7 Our scripture text this morning is a difficult book to find in the Old Testament. The easiest way to find it is to go to the end of the Old Testament and turn back a couple of books because Haggai is the third book from the end of the ...read more

He read about them, studied them, and even gave talks about them to other dog lovers. One day he decided to pour a new sidewalk in front of his house. His neighbor watched ...read more
