March 26, 2023 - WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO BE STRONG IN THE LORD? It’s been said that true strength in a person is measured by how much it takes to make them quit!… Strength in our faith is not measured by a one-time occurrence…but rather by endurance, perseverance and a relentless resolve to stand through adversity, bad circumstances and even persecution. We are encouraged by the word from the Lord in Revelation to HOLD ON…and BE STRONG IN THE LORD!… Even though some of life‘s most difficult and impossible challenges!

March 19, 2023 - WHO LIKES RIDDLES?…Who/What is the beast from the sea?… Who is the beast from the earth?… Revelation 13 seems impossible to figure out…but in fact, if you use scripture to interpret scripture, it’s really easy and makes the rest of Revelation make sense! YOU DON’T WANT TO MISS THIS! You will see the Bible come alive in this message, especially, as you look at the world around us which will bring to light some of the things that may seem confusing in this passage.

March 12, 2023 - YOU ARE IN A BATTLE…but it’s not against who you think…it’s not against people or things of this world…the battle we face is a spiritual battle against an enemy who is working behind the scenes continuously to accuse us and take us out! How do we “overcome”, defeat this enemy and win this battle? We continue in our series through Revelation, entitled “The Overcomers”.

March 5, 2023 - A WITNESS IS A MESSENGER…and can make a difference in the outcome of a situation…but it’s not always easy. If the message that is to be brought is not what people want to hear, how brave do the messenger have to be to still stand and deliver the message? Would you deliver that message? We continue in our Revelation series entitled “The Overcomers”, and are encouraged by learning of two witnesses who deliver a message that nearly no one on earth at the time wants to hear!…and God uses them and their bravery and boldness to change lives for eternity and turn a nation to Jesus!

Feb 26, 2023 - HOW VALUABLE IS AN EXPERT WITNESS?… the verdict of many trials is determined by the testimony of a true expert witness … someone who studies, knows and lives out  the area of expertise in which they are called to testify about. God has called the true authentic followers of Christ to be His witnesses!… That’s His ambassadors…representatives in a foreign land! How is God calling you to be a witness right now? Learn about two witnesses God places on earth during the tribulation to testify of the one true God, so people can repent and be saved! You will learn more in the Bible tomorrow than you probably have in any other message and will be inspired and motivated to apply God‘s word, as you see the Bible come alive in Revelations 10 and 11.

Feb 19, 2023 - WHAT WOULD IT TAKE FOR YOU TO LOOK TO JESUS AND GIVE YOUR LIFE TO HIM?If you were about to claim bankruptcy, and someone offered to pay off all your financial debt, ALL OF IT…would you turn them down and take all the penalty upon yourself, when you could have been set free and given a new start? Jesus took the wrath of God upon Himself on the cross to pay the penalty for the sin of all mankind so we can be free to live for Him! DONT TURN AWAY!…turn to the One who gives life!!!

September 18, 2022 - NEW SERIES!!!!REVELATION is a book about Jesus!!!...the victory He has claimed over sin and evil, and offers to those who commit their hearts and lives to Him! This series will give us an understanding of the times in which we live, and times that are still to come, as we learn and understand Bible prophecy pointing to and leading to the second coming of Jesus! Everyone loves to learn and hear about the first coming of Jesus, his birth...but did you know for every verse in the Bible speaking of His 1st coming there are 8 verses referring to His 2nd coming?!!! The Lord wants us to know and understand the contents of this book...why?...because it’s about the return of Christ for His children!...and it gives us the certainty of victory, and strength to stand for Christ in a fallen world, even in times of persecution and the guaranteed hope that those who stand with Jesus will be OVERCOMERS!

September 11, 2022 - WHAT IS REPENTANCE? DOES REPENTANCE BRING JOY? Repentance is not something embraced in our culture, and unfortunately, it is something rarely mentioned  in our pulpits or along with the plan of salvation as it should be... and even when mentioned on occasion, It is simply stated and breezed over and not clearly defined with scripture to bring clarity and understanding. David writes Psalm 51 once his eyes and heart were opened to the sin that he had committed against the Lord... in this psalm, we see the heart of repentance! We see Repentance defined and laid out before us in God‘s word so that we know what it should look like and will look like in our hearts and lives when it’s authentic! Then he aligns repentance, and being “washed”, with restored JOY!!! A lot of people are looking for joy, a steadfast spirit, a revived hope, and life!…there is only one place to find it!

September 4, 2022 - HOW BIG IS GOD TO YOU?

DO NOT MISS THIS MESSAGE!...it will give you resorted hope, peace, and purpose...motivate you to keep trusting the Lord no matter the circumstances...and it may change your and your family and friends’ lives forever!

August 28, 2022 - WHY IS SERVING JESUS IMPORTANT? When the Lord provided a huge harvest and filled the nets of the disciples in the Gospel of Luke, Could just one disciple pull it in?… Two?...Three?...NO!!!...In fact, they had to call for their partners in another boat to come help, and if they did not help, that harvest would not have been brought in!The call from Psalms 100 is to serve the Lord with gladness, the necessity of that call is defined by Jesus in the Gospels where he said the harvest is plentiful, but the workers are a few!So to complete the mission the Lord has given the church to reach people, we need workers in his harvest field! The Lord is looking for people to GRAB THE NET!!!
