    Isn’t it true that when humans fail, sin, even commit the most awful injustices, God’s mercy is ever present, ever able to forgive when we repent?

    It takes work to give up something for Lent, but before you can give up anything for God, first you have to get up and decide to go to work for Him. Before you can do the Lenten "give-up", you have to get up!

    Welcome to the first Sunday of Lent that season of the church year where people who attended church were once traditionally asked to give something up for the season. What have you given up for Lent lately? Often the idea of a making a personal sacrifice for God falls on deaf ears. What does God ...read more

    This is not the typical Easter sermon. It is specific to our church and where we are. It looks at some different implications of the events surrounding the resurrection.

    This is a slightly different Easter message than you may be used to. It’s not typical. There are some observations that are appropriate for where we are as a church and where we’re headed. Read Luke 24:1-12. Many of us have read or heard this passage a million times. We heard a number of sermons ...read more
