"Forgiven, but not living like it". In it we will be examining the divine expectations and intentions of God for our lives found in the scriptures and the old/weak fig leaves believers for generations have used to try and cover their nakedness. There is not only a glory found in grace, but a responsibility, a response, an expectation to follow the Lord into all the ways and graces where he abides....

In the old testament, the Israelites (like us all) were under the judgment of God and many of them died; but God in his mercy gave them a divine remedy of mercy, that only involved their faith. So it is with us today; all that troubles us and the sin that creates it can be dealt with by looking upon the remedy; which is Christ lifted up for our sins.

Regardless of who you are, where you are, and what is behind you... if you are full...

Join us as we continue our series The Charge of the Believer. This week we will examine how followers of Christ must dissect the Scriptures when seeking to make proper application of biblical principles in everyday life. Paul charged Timothy to "rightly divide" the Word of Truth, and we seek to do the same as cultural shifts create a deep need for believers to clearly understand how to navigate th...

Last week, my dear friend Joe Phillips did an illustrative sermon from the forgiveness penitentiary and God used it to touch many hearts and free them from being a warden over those we had locked away in our hearts. We were also given a key to remind us of this day, this action, and the spiritual reality of it. But what about after? After the feelings of conviction and warmth are gone? When the sm...

The story of Lazarus is a common one, but the faith and declaration of Martha is often overlooked to our own shame and loss. At the point of hopelessness, with Lazarus decomposition exponentially taking place in the jerusalem heat; her prayers unanswered, her hopes dashed, her expectation unrealized.....from the bottom of her sould came two words, 'even now.'
