    A Call to Worship

    December 7, 2018

     

    It’s that time - Christmas is approaching!   There will be lights and decorations displayed.  There will be shopping and meals planned.  There will also be sadness for those who are no longer with us - maybe the first Christmas without them.  Christmas time has always been a time for great joy and anticipation,...

    Hope for the Hopelss

    November 30, 2018

     

    “Advent” - the coming of Christ.  This is a past, present and future reality!  Past - Jesus came in the flesh.  Present - Jesus can dwell in you, via the Holy Spirit.  Future - Jesus is physically coming again at the end of time as we know it.  Jesus told us there would be signs of His coming again and...

    Life is messy

    November 23, 2018

     

    Life is messy.  We are broken people living in a broken world - precisely why Jesus came.  Jesus came to make all things new.  We can experience that newness now, through the new birth, but life is still messy.  Someday Jesus is coming back again to restore all things (no more mess)!  His word declares He is going...

    Blessed

    November 17, 2018

     

    It’s hard to believe we are entering into Thanksgiving already with Christmas just around the corner!   It feels like we just had summer and now entering into winter.  Somewhere along the way it feels like we skipped spring and fall (key word “feels”)?!  How we feel is not always reliable.  Our emotions are on the mountain top one moment and the next in the valley.  The holidays are not always filled with good feelings due to, in part: our past, present state or our lose of loved ones.  For those that fight depression the holidays are especially hard.  But whether you fight depression or not, we tend to...

    Unshakeable truth for uncertain times

    November 10, 2018

     

    “Thank You!”  to our Veterans - past, present and future.  We pause to remember and honor our men and women who have served and are serving to keep America safe and free.  We enjoy our freedom of religion today because so many have given the ultimate sacrifice - their lives.  We should all honor and respect our Veterans.  Our military have sworn to protect us from foreign and domestic enemies, but who/what can protect us from ourselves?!  We have heard of yet another tragic shooting!   Please join me in remembering and praying for these families.  But what is the answer to the madness that is going on?!   More legislation, more law enforcement, more…

    Redeeming the time

    October 31, 2018

     

    Daylight savings time ends November 4th…ugh.  Although by setting my clock back one hour (fall back) and I potentially gain an extra hour of sleep, I really am not a fan of the time change.  And although I didn’t get to have a say about it nor did I get to vote on it, I, like everyone else will make the proper preparation and adjust.  Time is our most valuable possession.  We none know how much time we have.  The recent tragedies and this past year reminds us all of that.  Some would like to blame God for all the bad things that happen, but...

    Prayer

    October 28, 2018
     
     Jesus said, “…my house shall be called a house of prayer…”  (cf.Matthew 21:13)  So why is it so hard for us to really pray?   Jim Cymbala, the pastor of the Brooklyn Tabernacle in New York, author of “Fresh Wind, Fresh Fire” said, “…the future will depend upon our times of prayer.”  Pastor Jim’s ministry is an example of what God will do through prayer, and I am thankful for his example.  But our greatest example is Jesus.  In the gospel of Luke we read...

    Why do bad things happen?

    October 10, 2018

     

    “I went out full, and the LORD has brought me home again empty…the almighty has afflicted me?” (cf.Ruth 1)
    Naomi had just lost her two sons, and her husband preceded them in death. On top of all that she was away from her family and relatives. She had no means to support herself. What is she to do? Why would an all-powerful, all-knowing and ever-present God allow this to happen to her? Naomi was a good women, a God fearing woman. Well respected and loved. This raises the question - “why do bad things happen?”...

    Homecoming

    October 3, 2018

    Homecoming

    Is a time when you look back at all the fellowship that has happened up to this point in your life’s journey.  All the happy times and all the sad times, all the people that have passed through your life, past and present, and all those that have passed through the Gates of the Kingdom of Heaven.  Homecoming is not about a building, but about people and relationships.  It is a gathering place of refuge, a place of fellowship, and for some a place to find Jesus Christ for the very first time.  

    Homecoming should be a place where you...

    Worry

    September 27, 2018

     

    “Prayer is beyond any question the highest activity of the human soul.  Man is at his greatest and highest when upon his knees he comes face to face with God.” - Martyn Lloyd-Jones

    The Bible exhorts us to “come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need.” (Hebrews 4:16)

    There may be times in our life that we don’t even know how or what to pray for.  It is in those times that we...
