Are you obedient to the Lord? Do you follow His directions when you hear them, or do you put off following His guidance until it’s convenient? In today’s message, Pastor Bill teaches you how to begin to hear the voice of God more clearly: by being obedient to what God is telling you to do. By putting aside your own desires and placing God’s will at the forefront of your life, you begin to become m...

Have you ever heard clearly from God? When you’re not used to hearing His voice, it can be difficult to discern between what God is saying - from your own thoughts, and it can lead to you disobeying God, by not following His instructions. Today, Pastor Bill teaches you how you can begin to discern God’s voice from among the noise in your heart: by listening for the things that He is saying to you...

What a responsibility we have as parents to train our children up in the Lord. In today’s message, Pastor Bill will note the consequences of poor parenting, and exhort parents to rise to the challenge! The habits and expectations that we set for our children can carry with them for a lifetime. In some ways, their behaviors can be a testimony of the Gospel with friends and classmates.

Giving is an act of worship, but even it can be affected by various distractions. In today’s teaching, Pastor Bill will highlight the story of Eli’s sons in 1 Samuel 2. Their sinful acts became a hindrance to those wanting to worship the Lord. In the same way, we need to be careful that our actions do not hinder others’ walks with the Lord.

Sometimes the Lord simply wants us to turn to Him, and wait. Today, Pastor Bill will speak on the instant gratification society that we live in, and challenge us to lean on the Lord in moments of distress.

Being a follower of God isn’t always fun. Sometimes following God means being the “boring” person at the party. Not drinking like everyone else, not having sex outside of marriage, not doing everything that the world says is okay to do. In reality, all of the “fun” that you are missing out on, really isn’t that great. In today’s message, Pastor Bill is going to remind you that sin is temporary, bu...

Sin is only a temporary pleasure. When you choose to sin, you might feel really good in the moment, but that’s it. It won’t last for long, and you won’t find true happiness. It will eat away at you, your thirst for sin will grow bigger and bigger, and will ultimately lead you to eternal death. In today’s message, Pastor Bill is going to remind you that sin isn’t the way to find joy, Jesus is. Jesu...

There are two teams that are to face off against one another… but what about when it’s Christians? In today’s message, Pastor Bill is going to be talking about how so often we see Christians fighting the other members of the church. The Bible tells us that our battle is not against...

Have you ever considered the difference between “worshiping” and “praising” God? Today, Pastor Bill will explore the meaning of praise and worship, and unpack the powerful benefits that come with each. Scripture commands us to do both because our God is worthy.

May we be encouraged to always keep our...

That’s the beautiful part about Christianity; it’s for everyone. When Jesus gave us the great commission, He told us to make disciples of ALL the nations. In the Book of Genesis, it says that we are made in the image of God. God created ALL of us, so why shouldn’t everyone hear the Good News? That’s why in today’s message, Pastor Bill speaks about how God didn’t die for some people’s sins, but for...

In today’s message, Pastor Bill reminds you that God is above everything in your life. Sometimes we get so caught up in ourselves that we forget who should be at the center of our world. When you invite God into your life and let Him guide you down His path, the small things in your life seem trivial. That’s why today, Pastor Bill tells you to have a heavenly mindset. When you replace those false...
