They Will Know We Are Christians By Our Clothes?
Listen to this sermon at this link. Have you ever tried to be someone that you aren’t? Putting on an act to hide your true character? I’m not sure if people really know what a Christian acts like any more because so many people claim to be Christians, but don’t act like Christ. In Colossians …

Be Faithful In The Small Things
When was the last time you felt pushed out of your comfort zone? Does it happen more often than it used to? You’ve heard of the parable Jesus told his disciples about the wealthy man giving his servants each a bag of talents. To one he gave 5 talents, to another two talents, and to …

Life Is A Jigsaw Puzzle
You know how it is when you work a jigsaw puzzle. You spread all of the pieces out face up so you can spot just the piece you need. Our pastor says he can’t stop until it’s finished once he starts one. I’m not sure that I could stay with any one thing for that …
