    This sermon declares that being in ministry can be just as exciting as going on a family trip and just as children ask the question in the sermon’s theme, the church should continue to ask it as well.

    Are we there yet? (Matthew 25:34-46) Our theme for today’s message can help many of us reflect back to our youth when we were with our parents, grandparents, other relatives or guardians. I’m referring to occasions when we were going on some type of family outing. It could have ...read more

    God has called the church to be something more than we’ve somehow become. It’s time to understand and accept the call...again!

    How do you answer the phone? “Hello?” “This is Sam (or whatever your name is).” “Yeah?” “Hey!” (usually if you have callerID)” “Talk to me.” “Wazzup?” Choosing to ignore it. Each of us here could get the same phone call and yet have a different response. But what if God calls? How do we ...read more

    The Word made flesh was revealed in glory; now the Word given by the holy writers attests to this fac that we may believe.
