Larger Than Life

Don’t you do the same thing? If you find a good place to eat or watch a movie that you really love, don’t you want all your friends and family to share what you’ve experienced?

Love is a good thing. I think it’s reasonable to say that, especially as Christians, we should love everyone.

In today’s message, Pastor Ron expresses to you the need to avoid those who cause division in t...

The term we use for fellowship, derived from the word “Koinonia” in the Bible, signifies more than simply shaking hands or exchanging a few religious clichés or greetings at church.

They did this out of gratitude fo...

Be aware that Satan may attack you, so be prepared for spiritual warfare....

A man of integrity is humble and understands that he is nothing without God. In today’s message, Pastor Ron emphasizes the importance of giving God the glory for the great things He has done.

The early church prayed for boldness and shared the gospel fearlessly. However, being bold in your faith does not mean being obnoxious.

God’s willingness to take on human flesh is astounding in itself, but even more incredible, is the humility and sacrifice He demonstrated. In today’s message, Pastor Ron reflects on how Jesus, though deserving of all glory, chose not to come as a king, but as a servant.

In today’s message, Pastor Ron reminds us that true Christian living is marked by righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit.

There are times when certain habits, actions, or priorities may not be sinful in themselves, but can hinder our spiritual growth.
