Sun., Oct. 23, 2022; Sermon by Pastor Morris Sapp entitled, "The Goodness & Love of God" 23.10.2022

Romans 8:31-39 tells us that nothing can separate us from the love of God!  All throughout the Word, we are told about the goodness of God and the Love of God and how each is eternal and unending.  He love endures forever!  Let the redeemed say so! Listen to Pastor Morris' sermon and learn about the four categories of people outlined in Psalm 107:  wanderers, prisoners, foolish, and weary. Re...

Sun., Oct. 16, 2022; Sermon by Pastor Chris Bailey entitled, "God Does Not Walk Away" 16.10.2022

In our humanity, we tend to walk away from situations where we feel uncomfortable... danger, bad relationships, awkward situations, embarrassing moments, trouble, etc.  In other words, we walk away from negatives.  The problem with that is we ALL have negatives in our lives.  We are ALL sinners.  The problem worsens... we tend to project ourselves on God.  In other words, because we know that we w...

Sun., Oct. 9, 2022; Sermon by Pastor Morris Sapp entitled, "Trusting in the Lord" 09.10.2022

It is ABSOLUTELY ESSENTIAL that we put our trust in the Lord!  "Trust" appears in the Bible over 200 times...  over 50 times in the book of Psalms alone!  Listen to Pastor Morris to learn about what people often trust in that will sometimes fail them and how we KNOW that the Lord is trustworthy!

Sun., Oct. 2, 2022; Sermon by Pastor Chris Bailey entitled, "Where Do You Live?" 02.10.2022

If you do something over and over, people will begin to associate you with that thing.  Do you pray a lot?  People may consider you a prayer warrior.  Do you love, watch, and play sports every chance you get?  People may consider you a sports expert or even a sports fanatic.  How much do you have to sin to be considered a sinner?  God's Word tells us that we ALL fall short... we ALL sin... th...

Sun., Sept. 25, 2022; Sermon by Pastor Morris Sapp entitled, "Seek Him First" 25.09.2022

"To seek" means to go after, strive for, worship & bow to something.  We need to SEEK the Lord first.  Seeking the Lord is an every day event... not just something we do on Sundays.  Matthew 6:33 - Seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness and all these things shall be added unto you!"  God will take care of us!  Life is better when we seek the Lord!  People see how...

Sun., Aug. 28, 2021; Sermon by Pastor Morris Sapp 04.09.2022
Sun., Aug. 21, 2022, Sermon by Pastor Chris Bailey, entitled "Next to You" 21.08.2022

Life is Better Together! Even when we think that we want to be alone, things are usually better when we are with someone.  In Nehemiah 3:17-21, there is an explanation of work that is being done, and the prophet Nehemiah goes into detail about who was working next to whom.  "And next to him..." is repeated many times here and throughout the entire chapter.  Satan's strategy is to is...

Sun., Aug. 14, 2021; Sermon by Pastor Morris Sapp entitled, "Be Strong and of Good Courage" 14.08.2022

The book of Joshua is a historical book, a practical book, and a typical book.  We can glean so many important life lessons from this book - relevant to our lives today -  by looking deep into the messages of the passages.  Listen to Pastor Morris' sermon and find out WHY after hearing the reports of 12 men sent to scope out the land that God had promised to them that instead of claiming that...

Sun., July 31, 2022; Sermon by Pastor Morris Sapp entitled, "The Forgotten Waterpot" 31.07.2022

People leave things when they meet Jesus: *Simon and Andrew left their fishing boat. *Matthew left his tax collector booth and his rich life of luxury. *Paul left the Sanhedrin *The crippled left their crutches. *The Samaritan woman at the well left her waterpot. *Listen to Pastor Morris' sermon about the woman at the well which illustrates how JESUS is the only thing that can fill the God-sh...

Sun., July 24, 2022; Sermon by Pastor Chris Bailey entitled, "Highway to the Danger Zone" 24.07.2022

Matthew 7:13-14 tells us that the wide path is the road that leads to destruction and that it is the narrow path that leads to life.  Does that make sense?  Our own senses tell us that the wide path is the one that most people go on.  Are most people wrong?   The narrow path is traveled very much... and it does not look like the right way to go.  What is right?  What is wrong?  How do we know whic...

Sun., July 17, 2021; Sermon by Pastor Morris Sapp 22.07.2022
Sun., July 10, 2022; Sermon by Pastor Chris Bailey entitled, "God in a Beautiful Cage" 10.07.2022

Think about this... when we go on vacation and rent a condo, everything there is ours to use... EXCEPT what is in the locked closet.  When we accept Jesus as Lord and Savior, we invite Him into our heart, our life.   We give Him all that we are... or do we?  Do we allow Him access to EVERY PART OF US... or do we have a locked closet? Pastor Chris delivers a POWERFUL sermon that will help you ident...

Sun., June 19, 2022; Sermon by Pastor Chris Bailey entitled, "More Than You Bargained For" 10.07.2022
Sun., June 26, 2022; Sermon by Pastor Chris Bailey entitled, "Despicable Dignity" 19.06.2022

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY!!!  Just as most earthly fathers like to give good gifts to their children, our Father in Heaven wants to bless us with what is good for us! Do we always know what's best for us?  Do we sometimes want something that is not in alignment with what God our Father wants for us... therefore, not in our best interest?   We may not know what's best for us in every situat...

Sun., June 14, 2022; Sermon by Pastor Russell Cash entitled, "I was Born for This" 14.06.2022
Sun., June 5, 2022; Sermon by Pastor Morris Sapp entitled, "God Saved the Best for Last!" 05.06.2022

You have read or heard a sermon preached about the first miracle Jesus performed:  turning water into wine at a wedding in Cana.   Sounds simple enough, right?  Well, yes and no... it was simple for Jesus to look to His Father in Heaven and ask Him to do this through Him, but it was highly significant - not only to the master of the ceremonies, the brides' parents, and the entire wedding part...

Sun., May 29, 2022; Sermon by Pastor Morris Sapp entitled, "I Need a Miracle" 29.05.2022

When we read Luke 18:35-43, we learn of a blind man who heard that Jesus was passing by.  Jesus was in Jericho on His way to Jerusalem for the Passover.  The blind beggar started crying out to Jesus to have mercy on him.  Others tried to silence him, but the beggar cried out all the more!  Jesus asked that the man calling Him be brought to Him.  He asked the blind beggar what He wanted, then He pe...

Sun., May 15, 2022; Sermon by Pastor Morris Sapp entitled, "Seeking God in Times of Pressure" 15.05.2022

What are your priorities?  Your priorities determine how you spend your time.  In Psalm 63, David did not ASK for anything, but Psalm 63 helps us to peer into David's heart.  Listen to today's sermon to know how to answer these questions:   1.  What does it mean to seek after God? 2.  What does the person look like who seeks after God? 3.  How does a person seek after God?  

Sun., May 8, 2022; Sermon by Pastor Chris Bailey entitled, "Anonymous Mom" 08.05.2022

The Bible recognizes many special women... and among those, many special moms.  One in particular was Manoah's wife.  In the Bible she was not names, yet she is honored because she fulfilled what God called her to do.  What was she called to do?  What happened in her life that was unusual?  How was she a model of faith?  Who was her son and what did he accomplish?  Listen to Pastor Chris&apos...

Sun., Apr. 24, 2022; Sermon by Pastor Morris Sapp entitled, "Happy" 24.04.2022

Everyone WANTS to be happy... but WHAT makes us happy differs from person to person.  What is happiness?  What is meant by "happiness is a perspective?"  What is the difference between BEING HAPPY and BEING BLESSED?  What are the things I need to DO and NOT DO to be happy?  We find all answers in the Word of God.  Read Psalm 1:1-6 then listen to Pastor Morris' sermon, BE BLESSED, an...

Sun., Apr. 17, 2022; Sermon by Pastor Morris Sapp entitled, "The Words of the Cross" 17.04.2022

HAPPY EASTER!  Jesus has risen from the grave.  He lives!!! The number "seven" has great spiritual significance.   Our Lord Jesus Christ, as He hung on the cross to die for our sins and reconcile us to the Father, spoke seven words or messages.  The first, fourth, and seventh were words that He spoke to the Father.  The other words were spoken to the people around Him, including His moth...

Sun., Apr. 10, 2022; Sermon by Pastor Chris Bailey entitled, "The Beautiful Cross" 10.04.2022

There are many people, especially women, who own and wear a cross.  But, the cross is MUCH MORE than just a beautiful piece of jewelry.  Listen to Pastor Chris' sermon to learn the details about four very important reasons why THE cross - the cross where Jesus gave His life up for us - is so very beautiful.  The cross is foundational, available, powerful, and inevitable!

Sun., Apr. 3, 2022; Sermon by Pastor Morris Sapp entitled, "The Passover" 03.04.2022

Why do we do the things that we do?  Sometimes we do things out of tradition, but we don't know why we do them.  Passover is one of the feasts of the Jewish people... Exodus 12 explains this miracle and the purpose for it.  In Luke 22, Jesus shares the last Passover meal with His disciples.  In what ways was this Passover meal different from those before?  What did they talk about?  What new...

Sun., Mar. 27, 2022; Sermon by Pastor Morris Sapp entitled, "A New Thing" 27.03.2022

The Word of God provided for us in Isaiah 43:16-21 lets us know that we should: *NOT HOLD ON to the past, *BEHOLD the wondrous things in store for us from the Lord, and *TAKE HOLD of God's will for our lives ad be obedient in the big things and in the small things. Listen to today's sermon to learn the many ways that the NEW THING is a BETTER THING and is specifically for YOU!

Sun., Mar. 20, 2022; Sermon by Pastor Chris Bailey entitled, "Not as He Seems" 20.03.2022

Who are you when no one is looking?  What is the condition of your heart?  When God says no but we keep asking Him, are we seeking His will or our own will?  In Number 22, why did God allow Balaam to go to Moab, then immediately punish him for going?  Find out the answers to these questions and many more by hearing today's sermon!
