Each week our pastors study diligently to deliver practical, thought-provoking messages from the Word of God.
As a church family, we are instructed to give to the work of the Lord equally. If one member (or group of members) gives more than another, less is being accomplished, and some are being over burdened. Christ desires everyone to be involved in accomplishing his mission for the church.
Read MoreWe have a choice before us regarding our giving. Our choice will reflect what we esteem, what’s important to us. We make choices about what’s important to us every moment of every day. We choose what to invest our limited resources in.
Read MoreThe paradox of Proverb 11:24 runs throughout the Word of God. Open hands lead to more, and clenched hands lead to less. When it comes to generosity or the lack thereof, you will live in the environment you create.
Read MoreAs Children of God, we all face very big moments, moments in which someone's eternal destiny may be on the line. However, when faced with these moments, we often make excuses. If you say "yes" to the excuse, you say "no" to the opportunity. We must focus on the opportunity, not the excuses.
Read MoreThere are many things in life we may wish we could forget. At the same time, there are many things we better not forget. We are to have compassion on those who have not because we were once those who had not. God is saying, "Have mercy on the have nots because you used to be one too." God forbid we ever lose sight of what we were.
Read MoreOur response to a blessing matters. God cares how we respond to His blessing. We have all been blessed by simply knowing Christ. However, Christ said that it is more blessed to give than to receive. The blessings we have received should compel us to give to others. Through our giving, God blesses others.
Read MoreAs God blesses, we are obligated to be a blessing to others, we are to contribute to a cause outside our walls. How will the gospel go forth if we don't think outside ourselves and outside our walls?
Read MoreMission effects how we live and behave. Your heart will be effected by the mission you choose to serve. If your heart is given to a mission, that will effect what you do. Our mission effects our decisions. Deciding what our mission is in advance can have an effect on the direction of our lives.
Read MoreThere is a temptation to be ashamed of the gospel message. But there is nothing to be ashamed of; it is a powerful message. It has the power to change the world, and because of its power, we have an obligation to share it.
Read MoreJesus was busy in His ministry, but He still took the time to stop and observe. He saw people in there condition and was moved in His heart. There was no one to help them. This led Jesus to command us to pray that more people would go to help them.
