     | 81 views

    The sermon urges believers to let go of bitterness and embrace kindness and forgiveness, allowing the Holy Spirit to transform hearts and relationships through Christlike love.

    Friends, welcome. Pull up a chair in your heart and take a deep breath. Some of us walked in with a smile on our face and a storm in our soul. Honest hearts would admit it: bitterness can linger like smoke after a kitchen fire. Wrath can simmer, anger can echo, and harsh words can hang in the air ...read more

    Worship is offering our whole, everyday lives to God, allowing His mercy to transform us so we bear fruit and reflect Christ in all we do.

    Friends, welcome. I’m so glad you’re here. Some of you showed up with a smile, others with a sigh, and the Lord receives you just the same. He gathers us like a good Father gathers children at the table—hungry, hurried, hopeful. Grace has a way of finding us in the in-between: between loads of ...read more

     | 69 views

    The sermon emphasizes embracing God’s forgiveness so deeply that it transforms us into people who freely extend mercy and forgiveness to others in everyday life.

    Some of us walked in today with invisible suitcases—stuffed with memories we’d rather forget, words we wish we could unsay, and wounds we struggle to understand. We smile, we sing, we shake hands. Meanwhile, there are names that tighten our chest and moments that make our stomach drop. You’re not ...read more

    How can we throw away our gift of salvation? By doing nothing at all.

    INTRODUCTION • As we get closer to the Christmas holiday, what is one thing that seems to take center-stage with this holiday? • It is gifts. I mean how many of us get up at 5:00 am to pray or read the word compared to going shopping? How many of us would max out the credit cards to help with ...read more

     | 15,982 views

    This is an examination of the kind of music that God deems acceptable in the worship of the Lord’s Church.

    From the earliest days, music has played an important element in the worship of God. In both the Old and New Testaments, one can read of the use of music in worship. During the last 1600-1700 years, there has been much controversy as to the nature of acceptable music in Christian worship. The ...read more

    Is the story of creation a myth? And what is the book of Genesis about anyway? Learn what this first book is, and what it is not as we begin our journey through God’s wonderful story.

    For many people today - to say that you believe the Bible is to say that you are an anachronism - something out of today’s enlightened understanding. To say that Scripture is revealing the truth is laughable in some circles - especially among the intelligentsia. Much of the reason for scoffing at ...read more

    THE MINISTRY OF THORNS VS.

     | 4,628 views

    I think the problem most of us have with worship is that we’ve never made that “phone call” – the one where we seek to discover more about the One who has saved us. Many of us have a vague awareness that we’ve avoided hellfire, but we don’t feel any part

    Worship: All or Nothing Genesis 18:2 Genesis 22:17-18 Intro A few years ago, a young lady had moved to London, England and had bought herself a nice little flat on the top floor of a tenant building to live in.
