VBS 2019 recap

St. Paul tells us that “God's kindness is meant to lead you to repentance.” Repentance is the change of mind that leads us to care for our fellow man just as Jesus cares for the mankind He created. For the Follower of Christ, “acts of kindness” aren't random, they're intentional.

Kindness is Goodness in Action

According to the Bible, most people don't know the true meaning of peace. They think peace means "the absence of tension or conflict", but it actually means "wholeness, to be well". In other words, there may be chaos all around us, but a person with God's spirit inside them remains at peace because there is order in their life. This week, we heard part 4 of our Summer Sermon Series: 9 Secrets to a Healthy Relationship-Peace!

9 Secrets to Healthy Relationships - The Fruit of Peace

Our source of joy is the cross. Our pasture is living at the foot of the cross. Our abundant life is lived out in the shadow of the cross. Because it is the cross and the empty tomb that are our victory signs. They are our raising of the flag at Iwo Jima!

Don't Let Satan Steal Your Joy

Love may be the most abused word in the English language but Christ Jesus shows us its true value.

What is Real Love?

Like all fruit, the Fruit of the Spirit grows out of its roots, which are the characteristics of God. In the same way a tree is designed to be a dwelling place for fruit, you were created to be a dwelling place for the spirit of God. Without him in your life, thing quickly get out of hand, as your flesh dictates your behavior. And as we will see, in order to bear good fruit, you have to remain always and forever connected with Jesus.

Set Free to Love One Another (9 Secrets to Healthy Relationships - Part 1)

Scripture's standard of excellence is not meant for intimidation, but for inspiration to respond to the love of Christ with our best.

Godly Women: Standard of Excellence

God's will does not change when I am not willing to follow it. Fortunately, Jesus was willing to follow the will of His Father when He laid down His life on the cross. Empowered by this love and the with the help of the Holy Spirit, we strive to live daily in the shadow of the cross.

God's Will, When I'm NOT Willing

With identity theft rampant in the world to day, we need to take every precaution to protect our Christian identity as a follower of Christ. We have spiritual split personality...as “sinner/saints” we constantly struggle with the temptation to follow our own will, instead of Christ's will for us. Thanks be to God that Jesus followed the will of His Father as He gave up His own life on the cross that our sins could be forgiven. At the foot of the cross we become part of a new family, the family of God.

Christians' Dual Personalities

What do I do when I feel inadequate, especially when God is asking me to do something? Today we hear Moses story as he learned that Jesus is enough despite his inadequacy.

God's Will and My Inadequacy
