I’m just going to tell you that this sermon really resonated with me! I hope I’ve got your attention because this is for everyone of us. We can all serve in some capacity. Maybe you can’t preach, but can you cook, send cards to shut ins who need encouragement? Can you sing or play an …
Resolutions: To Do Or Not To Do Something
It’s not enough to say that we have a relationship with God. It’s not enough to say we believe in a higher power. We can’t say I’ll follow God, if… We can’t put God in a box. 1So the men of Kiriath Jearim came and took up the ark of the Lord. They took it …

God With Us Through Highs, Lows, and Misfit Toys Part 2
Joseph and Mary went through hard times while she was with child. They had to go to the homeland of Joseph because of the census required. They were on a long journey on a path they weren’t anticipating. “The virgin will be with child and will give birth to a son, and they will call …

God With Us Through Highs, Lows, and Misfit Toys
In this sermon, our pastor was looking at the verses through the eyes of Joseph. The virgin, the woman that Joseph loved and wanted to marry. To hear the news that Mary was with child and it wasn’t his, had to be devastating. The fact that the child belonged to the Holy Spirit wouldn’t have …

The Times Are A Changin’, Or Are They?
We started this sermon series last week and we continue on the signs of the end of the age. Some people are fascinated to study prophecy and others are afraid of it. Well, frankly it’s quite scary stuff. I used to want to figure just when the end will come, but after studying Revelation for …
Rumors And Facts
This post covers our sermon from 10/29/23. This was not an easy sermon for our pastor. It can’t be easy to talk about a future that has so much hate and destruction. But is it so much different than the world we live in today? There have always been times like the ones described in …
What Makes One A Christian?

Why is that? I think it’s because so many “Christians” are very judgmental. They may think someone doesn’t look the part. …
Opening The Door To Sharing The Gospel
Listen to this podcast on our responsibilities of furthering the Gospel. So, how do we stay on our mission to further the Kingdom? That is the directive we’ve been given. Paul gives the instructions to the Colossians. 2Devote yourselves to prayer, being watchful and thankful.3 And pray for us, too, that God may open a …
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 …
You Don’t Need A Weatherman…
Bob Dylan says, “you don’t need a weatherman to know which way the wind blows” in his song Subterranean Homesick Blues. I’m not necessarily a Bob Dylan groupie so I had to look up the reference our pastor used this past Sunday. An influence from his days playing drums with rock bands that comes in …
