    A sermon for the period between Ascension Day and Pentecost

    In many ways the period between the Ascension Day and Pentecost is a period of waiting for the church. I liken it to being in the third trimester of the pregnancy out of which the church is birthed. The first trimester is the period between the birth of Jesus and his death. The period during ...read more

    This season of Advent is also a season of busyness. There are so many gifts to buy, parties to attend and events to plan for. We must remember the real reason for the season. We must keep our eyes and minds focused on God.

    We are deep in the Advent season-a season of expectation and preparation. Many of us are looking forward to Christmas-a time of celebrating with family and friends. It is a time when we remember the greatest miracle of all-the coming of Jesus. Before Jesus was born, there was a great sense of ...read more

    Waiting on God is not a passive state but an active preparation. During this time, we can find hope and strength in God's unfailing love and forgiveness.

    You know when you're so frustrated, and you just want to scream into your pillow? Well, God's cool with that. He wants you to be real with Him, to tell Him exactly how you're feeling. It's like He's the ultimate best friend who's always there to listen, even when it's 3 am. Imagine your feelings ...read more

    This text separates those who are spiritually pretense from those who are spiritually intense. It is like the question the demon’s asked of the seven sons of Sceva, “Paul, we know, Jesus we know, but who are you?”

    Fire Upon Thine Altar Leviticus 6:13 The fire shall ever be burning upon the altar; it shall never go out.
