TRUTH OR FEAR

3/21/2021

 
There are two emotions or thoughts we could have as we move into Pilate's Judgment Hall. We can either search for the truth about Jesus the Christ or fear what will happen. Earth's kings and rulers joined forces to destroy the Lord's Anointed, the Messiah. The nations raged against Him and people plotted in vain against Him. And yet, full authority was given to Him. Such a plan God had in mind from the beginning of the world to ransom souls through the sacrifice of His Son, Jesus. Truth always overcomes fear.

UNAFRAID WITNESS

3/14/2021

 
​If you know Jesus as Lord and Savior of your life, then you are a witness to what He has done for you. Your life, your marriage, your work, your actions, your statements all ought to bring to light the love of Christ. However, we often feel like the disciples looking on at Jesus in the courtyard of the Sanhedrin afraid to speak up, afraid to stand up, afraid to give our lives for the Gospel. Join us this week as we walk into the courtyard with Peter and find the courage to be unafraid witnesses for Jesus today.

NOVEMBER 1: L.A.N.D. (Discerning movement)

11/1/2020

 
​Navigating the narrow road requires us to be in-tune with God to know when to move and where to move toward. That’s where discernment comes in the life of a believer. This week, we continue in our sermon series on LAND. We will learn what it means to Discern Movement. This is knowing where God is moving and joining Him in His plan and purpose. It means keeping our eyes and ears tuned to His Word and allowing the Holy Spirit to be at work helping us discern the decisions we have to make in this world.

AUGUST 30: Being content

8/30/2020

 
Discontentment often has society looking for fulfillment in other places. It may result in a pattern of turning away from God rather than running toward Him. Being content in all things is a discipline we all can use strengthening in. Join us as we discuss what it means as a follower of Jesus to be content.

August 9: L.E.A.P. (god's plan and purpose: maintaining Focus)

8/9/2020

 
​We are studying what it means to L.E.A.P. toward God’s plan and purpose for our lives and as a church. This week, we top it off by maintaining focus on what God longs to do in us and through us.

August 2: L.E.A.P. (God's purpose and plan)

8/2/2020

 
Today, we look at what it means to join in with God's Purpose and Plan. We begin to ask ourselves if we are ready and willing to share in God's plan? Jesus calls us all to GO. This week is the first of two parts of joining God's plan, join us next week as we discover what it means to GO and what it takes to GO.

JULY 5: L.E.A.P. INTRO

7/5/2020

 
We begin this week with an introduction to our next mini-sermon series which will be entitled LEAP. As a church and as personal followers of Jesus we are being asked to LEAP into what God has planned for us.

June 28: Between the rock and a hard place

6/28/2020

 
​Jesus reminds us in a parable that we must build our house, our faith, our life upon the solid rock and not shifting sand. Today we are reminded and encouraged about Jesus is the Rock!

MAY 24: RAised for eternity

5/24/2020

 
​Today we complete our series on the Apostle’s Creed and what we believe. We focus on the resurrection of the body and the life everlasting. Today, we also want to take time and reflect on those men and women who have given their lives to fight for our freedom. We honor them and we pray for their families. We also take a moment to think about those frontline heroes in our midst during the pandemic and thank them for their service.
