We will take a deep look at how God displayed His faithfulness through the lives of several people in different circumstances.\n\nWe start with Abraham. When God spoke to Abraham his name was Abram. I am sure Abram had heard the promise made in the garden of one who would bruise the...

Send us Fan Mail [[:encoded, "We somehow have relegated the account of Noah as either mythical or childish. It is neither. It is profound and applies to our lives today. Geological evidence is overwhelming that the flood of the earth was in fact an event that changed the course of the whole planet. Because the flood was real the account of Noah is real. Noah knew God through obeying an outrag...

Send us Fan Mail [[:encoded, "Today we are discovering Knowing God by taking a look at the first recorded worship gathering. I titled this talk the curse of preference. We have a tendency to do what we like to do. When it comes to expressing love to God we fall into this trap. We like what we like and we expect God to be ok with whatever makes us “feel good.\" Maybe you have been worship...

Send us Fan Mail [[:encoded, "There is a deep longing in the heart of every human - to love and be loved, to know and be known. We are looking for connection. And God is all about relationships - yours to Him and yours to each other. Come to the cross and find the joy of true and real relationships."]]

Send us Fan Mail [[:encoded, "Welcome to our new series, \"Knowing God from the Start.\" In this first message, Pastor Scott shares five principles on how each of us know God. And interestingly, when we seek Him, He lets us find Him only to discover He was looking for us all along!"]]

Send us Fan Mail [[:encoded, "Today we look at another name of Jesus used in scripture, perhaps one of the most beloved names of all - Savior. You'll discover how Jesus brings you to Himself, binds up the broken, prepares you to live for Him, and finally sends us out to restore others. What a wonderful Savior is our Lord Jesus!"]]

Join Sean Sivils as he offers answers to this question, and at the same time let your appreciation of the mighty power of God in Christ grow!"]]

Send us Fan Mail [[:encoded, "Today we begin a new series called The Names of Jesus. And this week we deal with \"The Lord Our Righteousness.\" First of all, a name or a title really gains significance when we understand it in a relational experience. And secondly, more than knowing that God is righteous, we are meant to experience His righteousness as we grow in our relationship to...

Send us Fan Mail [[:encoded, "Peace is a precious thing. Some define peace as an absence of conflict. However, peace is more than that. The Jewish people use the word \"shalom\" to define peace. Shalom means a total state of ease, free from stress, strife, and conflict. The word is used as a greeting and as a departing blessing.\n\nPeace is a good thing. I want peace in my relations...

Send us Fan Mail [[:encoded, "The subject of love can be a bit confusing. Often we think of love as emotional or all about feelings. But love is a decision based on commitment. Romans 5 is a great passage to understand how God demonstrated His love for us. And we can be sure that God makes us secure because He loves us!"]]

Send us Fan Mail [[:encoded, "This month we will focus being thankful. There are so many things for which we should be thankful. Scripture is filled with passage after passage of gratitude. One of the most, if not the most, compelling truths in the world is the grace of God. God, give us what we should not receive, what we do not deserve, and what we cannot fully comprehend."]]

Send us Fan Mail [[:encoded, "Today we will talk about sharing the love of Jesus or living to make Him famous! Think about it this way: 100 years from now, no one will know me, but will they know Jesus because of me?"]]

Send us Fan Mail [[:encoded, "For the last six weeks we have focused on living all for Jesus. We have covered Jesus' love, worship, connecting, growing, serving and sharing. This has been a reset of who we are and our process of building lives. You could call it discipleship. I call it \"All for Jesus.\" Now allow me to share about a life-changing truth: There is nothing that b...

Send us Fan Mail [[:encoded, "You will never fully understand your S.H.A.P.E. until you invest your life all for Jesus. The acronym stands for Spiritual Gifts, Heart, Abilities, Personalities, and Experiences. You serve Jesus by serving people. Join us as we look at Ephesians 4 in this week's message."]]

Send us Fan Mail [[:encoded, "For years I thought being a good Christian was attending, studying, praying, serving, and giving. But there is so much more. While all those activities are good, God longs for my character to be transformed so that I might think like Jesus, see like Jesus, speak like Jesus, hear the voice of Jesus, and have the mind of Christ. I am to become like Jesus."]]

This message is an invitation to enter into a relationship that c...

Has someone made a judgment about you based on their perception, their opinion, or their entitlement? In the scripture we will look at today we see that Jesus was addressing a group of religious elites. They judged everyone based on their perverted view of cor...
