Join us as we face the reality of the circumstances faced by those that follow Christ faithfully. The world hates the light, but Jesus sustains all that belong to Him. We that are redeemed are kept by God, for He always has, and He always will, be faithful to His Word. God will keep all that belong to Him, and we are His.

I believe by God's spirit this message will be enlightening to those who feel like they are walking in darkness, strength for those who are weak, motivation for the stagnant, clarity for the confused, and healing for the hurting. God has not gone anywhere and His Plans are still in force; you just gotta make it to your next place in God.

Today we will compare the wisdom of the world with the wisdom of God to discover why many become so offended with the simplicity of the Gospel. God's wisdom is perfect, timeless, and leads us to glory. Conversely, worldly wisdom is corrupt, makes us arrogant, and leads us to destruction. Join us as we examine the better way to sojourn as we live in this world, but are not of this world.

As believers we are keenly aware of the global condition of sin as well as our own experience. From the darkness before our new birth, to the painful and discouraging experience of our sinfulness after conversion. As we examine the why of our sinfulness; maybe then we can turn back to the "who" that is worthy of our choice of holiness.

This message will carefully examine what is told us in the scriptures about the man Elijah and the effectual prayers that moved heaven and shook a nation. The base foundation of our message is found in the book of James where we find out; that Elijah was no different than us in his makeup and or opportunities.... only difference is that HE PRAYED

"Forgiven, but not living like it". In it we will be examining the divine expectations and intentions of God for our lives found in the scriptures and the old/weak fig leaves believers for generations have used to try and cover their nakedness. There is not only a glory found in grace, but a responsibility, a response, an expectation to follow the Lord into all the ways and graces where he abides. Don't let the world and carnal believers dull your senses to what is valuable and necessary for the believer to walk closely with God.

In the old testament, the Israelites (like us all) were under the judgment of God and many of them died; but God in his mercy gave them a divine remedy of mercy, that only involved their faith. So it is with us today; all that troubles us and the sin that creates it can be dealt with by looking upon the remedy; which is Christ lifted up for our sins. Looking at him genuinely, exclusively......nothing more, nothing less. No wonder they call HIS GRACE amazing

This is not a self-help talk or just mans attempt at encouraging those who are down, weary and or defeated; but instead, an examination of the scriptures that shed light on our journeys here on the earth and remind us that we have everything inside of us (by his spirit) to continue in, endure and finish all things. Regardless of who you are, where you are, and what is behind you... if you are fully surrendered to Christ, his power is sufficient to see you to the end

Join us as we continue our series The Charge of the Believer. This week we will continue to reflect on Paul's last words to Timothy and make application for our lives today. We are to faithfully run our race for the Lord in all seasons, so join us as we examine Paul's life and teachings to better understand how to life an honorable life before God.

Join us as we continue our series The Charge of the Believer. This week we will build upon the framework of doctrine from last week, and the practical duty of every believer will be our focus. Once we know why we are to serve His Body, there may remain questions about how to serve His Body, so join us as we set forth a biblical outline for those that wish to apply what we have learned.

Join us as we continue our series The Charge of the Believer. This week we will search the Scripture to discover the biblical framework to properly understand how every believer should serve the Body of Christ. We will explore the doctrinal directives found in Ephesians this week, and next week, we will plan to apply this framework at a practical level. How will you "Serve His Body?

Join us as we continue our series The Charge of the Believer. This week we will examine how followers of Christ must dissect the Scriptures when seeking to make proper application of biblical principles in everyday life. Paul charged Timothy to "rightly divide" the Word of Truth, and we seek to do the same as cultural shifts create a deep need for believers to clearly understand how to navigate the times and live righteously before God

Join us as we examine biblical leadership on Father's Day. Paul exhorted the Corinthians to imitate him as he imitated Christ, and men that would lead their homes and families in a Christ-centered and God-honoring way can learn much from this simple directive. Today we will unpack Paul's instruction and offer a practical framework for those that wish to be able to look at those under their care and say with integrity, "follow me as I follow Christ."

Today we continue the series on The Charge of the Believer. Throughout Scripture, an outline is presented to those that follow God on how to live a life that will please Him and bring glory to His Kingdom. This series will expound on how we can understand and apply this framework to our own lives in modern America, and we will continue our study with an outward directive - Be His Witness. Before Jesus ascends into heaven, He told His disciples to be His witnesses, and we too are to be witness for Christ. Join us as we examine the Scripture and offer practical ways for each of us to serve our Savior with our witness

Today we continue the series on The Charge of the Believer. Throughout Scripture, an outline is presented to those that follow God on how to live a life that will please Him and bring glory to His Kingdom. This series will expound on how we can understand and apply this framework to our own lives in modern America, and we will continue our study with a simple directive - Guard Your Heart. Through surrender and obedience to God and His Word, we can successfully live righteously and guard our hearts, but this task is something that no one else can do for us, and God will not do it for us.

Today we begin the series on The Charge of the Believer. Throughout Scripture, an outline is presented to those that follow God on how to live a life that will please Him and bring glory to His Kingdom. This series will expound on how we can understand and apply this framework to our own lives in modern America, and we will begin with the first step - Be Alert. To follow Christ well, we must be aware of His character, presence, and prompting, and if we are not alert, we will inevitably be unaware of God's hand moving in our life.

Last week, my dear friend Joe Phillips did an illustrative sermon from the forgiveness penitentiary and God used it to touch many hearts and free them from being a warden over those we had locked away in our hearts. We were also given a key to remind us of this day, this action, and the spiritual reality of it. But what about after? After the feelings of conviction and warmth are gone? When the smoke of burn over field blows back over you, or you see someone that resurfaces all the pain, shame, sorrow, and or anger that this person created in you. Join us as we examine the scriptures and search out what it is that God expects and is often the missing component to take us from the act of forgiveness, to the state of wholeness.

The story of Lazarus is a common one, but the faith and declaration of Martha is often overlooked to our own shame and loss. At the point of hopelessness, with Lazarus decomposition exponentially taking place in the jerusalem heat; her prayers unanswered, her hopes dashed, her expectation unrealized.....from the bottom of her sould came two words, 'even now.' Even now Lord, when it is to late. Even now, when the funeral music is playing and the mourners are heard crying around the tomb. Even now, where the stench of death is in the air and it covers anyone who comes within distance of it's power. Even now, I believe God can. I believe it is a matter of your will, not mine; and though my faith be small, it has one direction..... You, Son of God

There is a common phrase today in the church, "blessed and highly favored"; but I am afraid there are many people who have a practice of saying this, without any biblical evidence to the fact. Join us as we examine the life of Mary before and after the pronouncement upon her life, looking at the variables that qualified and quantified this being said about her

There is a story of a rich man in the gospels who lived a life of luxury and abundance, and at his gate was a castaway. Sick, homeless, hungry and destitute. This rich man (like many of us) have been blessed by God so greatly, so undeservedly and that in and of itself is a scandal; but the most incredible thing is that having SEEN the man, he did not SEE the opportunity, or feel the compulsion or compassion to alleviate his pain

This same Christ who died according to the scriptures, this same Christ who was raised from the dead according to the scriptures; is the one, THE ONE. The one sacrifice. The one redeemer. The one Son of God. The one Judge. The only name under heaven, whereby we must be saved.

When we are going life whether difficult or not it is hard to at times to keep our focus on what really matters. In this story I want to draw out need for Jesus

A personal testimony challenging Christians to "tell their story".

It is not only the world that has lost its way, but also many who once walked with the Lord. At one time they knew his voice, loved his word, and lived for his glory....(but now) they have devolved into enlightment, wokeness, lovers of the world, pleasure and sin; even disdaining the years that they walked with him. And others who were assaulted by life, sorrow, pain and disappointment and used that as an occasion to turn from the Lord that they once loved and served so well.....And there are others whose drift turned into distance and they aren't really sure when or how they left; but they are a long distance aways from the Fathers House, But what ever the case, i know two things. Backsliding is a real thing; but to the one who turns back to God, His grace is an even GREATER thing.
