Expectant praise

12/13/2020

 
This week we will bring Joy to the World through our praise. God’s Word has so much to say about praise it could be a sermon series in and of itself. But as we look at the characters of Moses and Mary, we find that we can rejoice for our hope has come… and Jesus will soon be returning to restore all things. Now that is something we can have an expectation of praise shouted from the mountain tops!

PRAYING WITH ANTICIPATION

12/6/2020

 
This week, we will learn to pray with anticipation. I am sure you get excited knowing something is about to happen or someone is about to visit. How do you prepare for their arrival? Prayer is one way we can prepare our hearts and minds this season to experience Christ anew.

Think ABout these things

11/29/2020

 
This week, we discuss what it means to Think About These Things. The world races from one holiday to the next and we get caught up in the race when we ought to be slowing down and ponder the story once again so that it renews us to celebrate the meaning of Christmas. How do we do that? In this sermon, we discuss just how Mary, the mother of Jesus thought about he call into God’s plan.

the benefits of gratitude

11/22/2020

 
There are physical, emotional, and spiritual benefits of being thankful to God and others. We are called as followers of Christ to encourage one another until the Day of Lord happens. Gratitude is one of those ways we can lift each other up.

Expressing our gratitude

11/15/2020

 
We’re in the month of giving thanks to God for His faithfulness. We can learn to be thankful. We can know we ought to be thankful but it is in the expression of gratitude that we build one another up and give honor to God for the gifts given to each person.

Learning to be thankful

11/8/2020

 
They say practice makes perfect. I’m not sure we’ll be perfect until we are in the presence of God, but as Christians we are called to practice righteousness in our walk of faith. This means learning what it means to give thanks and how to be thankful. Join us as we step into learning mode and walk as Jesus walked with a thankful heart.

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.

October 25th, 2020

10/25/2020

 
​We continue this week with our new sermon series: L.A.N.D. and things we might have to look at in our lives to join God in HIs plans and purpose for us. This week, we look at what it means to Navigate and not just to fix our eyes somewhere but how to effectively Navigate the Narrow Road. Jesus said, “Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it” (Matthew 7:13-14). There are things we can do to navigate in this world with godly perspective.

october 18: L.A.N.D. (MAKING ADJUSTMENTS)

10/18/2020

 
When God speaks, He will often call us out of where we are into something new He longs to do to show His glory. It might require us to make some adjustments in our lives in order to follow the plan and purpose of God. In our second week, we will discover what it means to Make Adjustments.

OCTOBER 11: L.A.N.D. (Listening for god)

10/11/2020

 
There are so many voices that you can listen for to find direction in your life. But there is one voice you ought to tune your ear to hear for the truth of what plans God has for you. Listening for God is the first in this series that will guide you to knowing the plans God has for you.
