    Christ Glorified In Us

    Contributed by David Johnston on Sep 24, 2006
     | 2,347 views

    This message deals with Christ’s prayer in John 17 for His disciples sanctification and our need to live a sanctified life for Christ to be glorified in us.

    Not much is said about the disciple’s conversions… that is… Some he saved, he said, “Go and sin no more… Or Thy sins be forgiven thee." Some say that weren’t saved until they got the Holy Ghost… (meaning Holy Ghost baptism and salvation are together as one work) Acts 19:1 And it came to pass, ...read more

    Teach Us To Pray Series

    Contributed by Joel Gilbert on Aug 11, 2025
     | 273 views

    Following a time of prayer, one of Jesus' disciples asked Him to teach them how to pray. Luke records an abbreviated version of the Lord's prayer and then includes elements that encourage us to be bold in our prayer, promising provision and presence from God.

    Over the last couple of sections of Luke’s gospel, we’ve considered the importance of loving God with all that we are and loving others. We’ve also reflected on the value of sitting before Jesus in order to just be with Him and learn before we get in to the practice of serving. It seems like in ...read more

    God is working in this church, not because we’re special people, but because we’ve chose to be obedient to His call. That’s our choice. I invite you to become a total part of this family of faith and move ahead with us. We don’t know what the future holds
