    We have been given the purest gift in Jesus Christ. This sermon takes Isaiah 9:6 to a whole different level. It allows the listener to really see Jesus as a gift and to receive and unwrap this gift daily.

    We have been given a special gift at Christmas. This gift we all know of and have heard about. Jesus came to the earth as a baby, grew in favor and wisdom, died on the cross for you and me, and rose again and sits at the right hand of the Father in heaven. Jesus came to be a light in the darkness. ...read more

    God’s love is the ultimate reality and truth. Nothing compares with God’s love. Nothing can separate us from God’s love. But we must accept God’s love.

    Consider this: 1. God created you to love you and God wants you to spend eternity with Him. 2. God has an enemy who hates you and wants you to spend eternity in Hell away from God. 3. The nature of God’s love demands that we have the power to choose whether we accept or reject the love of God. ...read more
