    One of the deadliest of the seven sins, lust can destroy the soul. Here is how it works and how we can deal with it.

    Before we begin talking about lust, we need to talk a little about sex. Hugh Hefner didn’t invent it. Neither did Hollywood. Nor the authors of the Kama Sutra. God created sex, and like everything he made it was beautiful. He didn’t waste any time getting to it either. Merely two ...read more

    How does the gift of teaching help the church? And does that mean that if we don't have this gift that we don't have to teach?

    Little Johnny wasn't getting good marks in school. One day he came up to the teacher’s desk and looked like he wanted to say something. “Yes Johnny” the teacher said. “Is there something you want?” Very quietly he said, "I don't want to scare you, but my daddy says ...read more

    Drawn To The Light Series

    Contributed by David Dunn on Jan 17, 2026
     | 160 views

    The light of Christ does not eliminate darkness, but restores orientation—revealing what is true when perception is distorted and certainty feels misleading.

    Night flying has its own unique challenges. During the day, a pilot has constant reference points. The horizon. The ground. Landmarks that quietly tell you where you are in relation to everything else. At night, many of those references disappear. You can still fly. The aircraft still responds. ...read more

     | 123 views

    Where is God when prayers go unanswered and suffering remains? This sermon walks through Job 23 to reveal what God is doing when He seems absent.

    There is a particular kind of loneliness that comes not from isolation, but from silence in the midst of relationship. A spouse who refuses to speak. A parent who withholds explanation. A trusted friend who goes quiet when you need them most. And perhaps most troubling of all, a God who seems ...read more
