We also believe that the Word of God is the only thing that is ever going to bring anyone into a saving relationship with God. Please feel free to check out our sermons here on line, and we would love to have you join us on Sunday’s as well.
He is Risen!: The Center of Our Faith
1 Corinthians 15. The resurrection of Jesus Christ has implication on your life whether you believe or not, and the evidence of the resurrection is staggering. There are a few theories trying to explain away the facts, but none of them hold water. Our faith rests on a firm foundation.
Who Is My Neighbor?
Luke 10:29-37. Responding to the scribe who asked “what shall I do to inherit eternal life?” Jesus explains who is the neighbor that is to be loved by telling the parable of the good Samaritan. Do you love you neighbor?
What Shall I Do?
Luke 10:25-29 A man asks Jesus “what shall I do to inherit eternal life?” This question should be principle in the mind of every person. Jesus answers not by telling the man he has no worries because God loves him, but rather by pointing the man to the Law of God. Fulfill the law and you will live! So how are you doing at keeping the law?
Inheritance By Faith
1 Peter 1:3-12 God is the cause of our faith, the keeper of our faith, the guard of our faith, and the reward of our faith. He ensures that all His children receive their inheritance.
Your Name is Written in Heaven
Luke 10:17-24 Where is your joy found? Is it found in victory in the Christian life? Is it found in success in ministry? Jesus tells His people to rejoice that your names are written in heaven. A grand picture of God’s absolute sovereignty in election which is the only way true joy is even possible. Jesus also makes it clear that is bring joy to God to save all those He chose before the foundation of the world to write…
Lambs in the Midst of Wolves
Luke 10:1-16 Jesus expands the ministry beyond the twelve apostles as he sends out the seventy to preach the kingdom of God. This is a critical mission, and one filled with much danger. He gives instruct on how to respond to those who receive the message, and those who reject. It would be better on the day of judgement for the city of Sodom them for those who reject the message of Christ.
Biblical Church Leadership: Aligning with Scripture
Selected Scripture: Church leadership is so important to the local church. Where is wisdom found that is suitable to structure the church. Men simply don’t have that kind of wisdom. we need God, and God has graciously revealed to us how church leadership is to work. Elders have such vital roles to the health and growth of the church. (Craig Sears leads communion at the end of the service.)
Jesus Confronts Modern Evangelicalism
Luke 9:57-62 Three individuals among the crowd around Jesus respond to Jesus with offers to follow as disciples. In this passage we see much that is foreign to modern day evangelicalism. There is a cost to following Jesus. There is a cross to bear.
The Who What and Why of Baptism
Baptism is an area where we find some confusion within the church today, but the confusion is not a result of ambiguity of scripture. God’s word is clear in this area. IN today’s service we celebrate as two sisters in Christ submit to the ordinance of baptism.
Determined Toward Mercy
Luke 9:51-56 Jesus willingly set His face toward Jerusalem. He was determined to head to the cross for unworthy sinners like us. As they traveled toward Jerusalem, travelling through Samaria, a village rejects Jesus, and two disciples ask the Lord if they should call down fire from heaven to consume them. Condemnation is not the role of Christians. As Christ came in a mission of mercy, so we are sent to preach the good news in mercy.
