     | 90 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

    Why Give Thanks PRO Sermon

     | 280 views

    True gratitude transforms our lives, drawing us closer to Jesus, deepening our healing, and opening our hearts to God’s ongoing blessing and presence.

    Some of us walked in today with full calendars and thin reserves. Bills on the table, worries in the heart, a sigh that sits a little too close to the surface. We could use a fresh breath of grace. We could use the reminder that God isn’t just good to us; He is near to us. Near on the mountaintop. ...read more

    Through Christ’s finished work, believers receive victory over sin and struggle—not by their own strength, but by trusting in God’s love and grace.

    Some days the world feels like a bully with a bigger backpack. The bills stack up, the headlines grow heavier, and our hearts carry aches we never signed up for. You try to pray, and words get stuck behind a lump in your throat. You sit in church with a polite smile, but your soul wonders, Is ...read more

    True spiritual fruitfulness comes from abiding in Jesus, trusting God’s pruning, and allowing His life to flow through us for lasting transformation and joy.

    Friends, welcome. If you close your eyes, you can almost see it: a sunlit hillside, a trellis swaying with a thousand green hands, clusters of grapes hanging like promises. A vineyard hums with quiet life. No rushing. No straining. The story of the vine is simple and strong—life flows, branches ...read more

    A young lady was very busy getting ready for a blind date.

    READY OR NOT “Jesus left the temple and was walking away when his disciples came up to him to call his attention to its buildings. 2 “Do you see all these things?” he asked. “Truly I tell you, not one stone here will be left on another; every one will be thrown down.” 3 As Jesus was sitting on ...read more

    God lovingly confronts our misplaced affections and hollow celebrations, calling us to honest repentance and deeper relationship, offering restoration instead of shame.

    If your week has worn thin and your soul feels tired, welcome. You’re in the right place. God meets us in the ordinary and the overwhelmed. He meets us in the pew and in the parking lot, in the headlines and in the heartache. And He has a word for us today—steady, strong, and sure. Have you ever ...read more

    True worship requires sincere hearts and just actions, not empty rituals; God desires authentic faith that transforms both our inner lives and outward behavior.

    Friends, pull up a chair in your heart and take a deep breath. You made it here—through noise and news, errands and emails. You brought your whole week with you, and that’s good, because the God who loves you meets you as you are. He is wonderfully near, whispering through His Word, “I see you. I ...read more

    God’s grace is a free gift we cannot earn; through faith, we receive His love and acceptance, not by our efforts but by His mercy.

    Some of us walked in today with hearts like clenched fists—trying to hold it all together, trying to square the accounts with God, trying to make sense of a week that wore us thin. We wonder if grace has a limit, if mercy has a meter, if love has a ledger. We keep a mental checklist: pray more, try ...read more
