The nation of Israel has been the target of hatred and violence throughout its existence. As we celebrate the wonderful season of Christmas, we’ll be reminded that Jesus was born a Jew and God holds a special place in His heart for this nation that He built for the purpose of blessing the nations of the world. As Pastor Terry will remind us in today’s message, we need to be alert and ready to fend...

The Lord tells us not to lay up for ourselves treasures on Earth, but to instead lay up for ourselves treasures in Heaven. Today, Pastor Terry will be reminding you that the Lord cares more about your eternity, than your temporal life. The whole point of giving sacrificially is to keep your eyes and heart fixed on Heaven, instead of being entangled with the affairs of Earth. The Bible says where y...

As Pastor Terry continues his teaching series through the Gospel of Mark, he’ll remind you of the importance of living sacrificially. All that you’ve been given has been given to you by the hand of God, not only to bless you but also to bless others. Too often we wait to offer our time, resources, and money until we feel like we have enough for ourselves first. This is the opposite of what the sto...

When was the last time you truly made Christ the main focus of the Christmas season? Today, Pastor Terry will be challenging you to slow down during this Christmas season and worship Jesus- the real reason for the season. Instead of focusing heavily on all the gifts and all the parties and all the decorations, why don’t you take this time as an opportunity to minister to the lost? This is probably...

Wouldn’t it be great if God answered every one of our prayers? You could have the perfect job, and relationship, and never have to worry about anything. How does that strengthen your walk with Christ? Today, Pastor Terry will encourage you that God places setbacks in your life not out of harm but to bring you closer to Him. If He instantly gave you everything you wanted, then there would be no rea...

When you decide that you want to follow Jesus with your whole heart, you should expect to run into trials and tribulations. Following Jesus isn’t all fun and games it’s usually filled with sacrifice and hardships. Today, Pastor Terry will remind you that it will get worse before it gets better, but it’s worth it. When you begin to lean on Him you will be amazed by the strength and endurance that H...

People today are known to fall victim to what’s called ‘Imposter Syndrom’ where they have a feeling of being inadequate. This happens when you begin to compare yourself to others, especially very successful people. But should you be comparing yourself to others? In today’s message, Pastor Terry teaches you that God has a plan for your life. It doesn’t matter if you feel adequate, He’ll give you th...

People are good at making excuses. From the very beginning, Adam said, “The woman made me do it.” Eve said, “The devil made me do it.” When it comes to sharing our faith, what kind of excuses do we give to God? “But what if they ask me a question I can’t answer?” In his message today, Pastor Terry reminds you, that you have everything you need. You have the Word of God and The Holy Spirit. Don’t w...

Often times we’re so consumed with what we have going on that it takes something extraordinary to get our attention. Sometimes that thing may be a welcomed blessing, but many times it can be a tragedy. What would it take for you to look up from your busy life and pay attention to what God wants for you? Pastor Terry shares with you in his message today, how for Moses, it was a burning bush. Is the...

Do you have a daily routine? Wake up, maybe read a little, get some coffee, some breakfast. Maybe you’re one who likes to get some exercise to start your day. Perhaps you hit the gym or go for a run first thing in the morning. In today’s message, Pastor Terry tells you about how Moses was just going about his usual business until something caught his eye that would change him forever. What if God...

The greatest power we have is the power of choice. Just think of how many choices you make in a day, let alone a lifetime. It’s a lot. We choose what socks to wear, and what toothpaste to buy. We choose what career to pursue and who we marry. And the most important choice: We can choose if we follow Jesus or not. Today, Pastor Terry encourages you to make that choice. When you choose to follow Jes...

Life is draining, and it’s hard not to seek immediate gratification to ease the stress. We choose to eat that chocolate cake despite our goal to be healthier. We eat out more often than we can afford because we don’t want to cook. On a more serious level, we may look for love outside of marriage because working on the relationship is too hard. Today, Pastor Terry tells you not to give up what you...

When things are going wrong, we tend to look to someone or something greater than ourselves to make things right. When we’re sick or hurt, we look to a doctor. When war threatens our nation, we look to our leaders. When the Israelites were enslaved and crying out to be free, they looked to Moses. But today, Pastor Terry reminds you that there’s no one greater than God. Through Jesus, God has provi...

Have you ever paused and looked at the world around you and thought, “How did we get here?” The news and social media – even our own conversations – reveal a world that seems saturated in darkness. Today, Pastor Terry tells you that it doesn’t take long for a culture to spin out of control. It can also be the same way with your own life. The question is what do you do about it? Where do you turn w...

Heaven will be incredible. There are varying interpretations of what exactly it will look like, but one thing’s for sure – it’ll be wonderful beyond words. Did you know that you can get a glimpse of its beauty right here and now? As Pastor Terry will point out in today’s message, when you take the time to bow down before your Heavenly Father in prayer and worship, the peace and joy He’ll fill you...

Now we see in part, but in Heaven, we’ll see in full… Have you ever been taking a class and suddenly a concept you didn’t understand started to click and make sense? Imagine that but on an all-encompassing scale. Every question and doubt you’ve ever struggled with will no longer be a mystery. As Pastor Terry points out in today’s message, this should bring incredible hope to your soul. If you’ve t...

What might happen if we devoted ourselves – both on an individual level and as a part of the body of believers - to intimate, focused times of prayer? All too often, prayer is just one more check mark in the service order – just a routine. The sermon and time of worship are certainly important, as well as times of hanging out and building relationships, but as Pastor Terry will point out in today’...

Can you imagine a modern-day anti-government militia member and a liberal, pro-government activist sitting down calmly in a prayer meeting together? You may make immediate assumptions about either one of those types of people or maybe you identify with one more than the other. As Pastor Terry examines the prayer meeting described in Acts chapter 1, he’ll point out that there was a diverse group of...

There’s so much happening in our lives that we tend to put things on autopilot, even important things. In fact, our faith is on that list more often than we care to admit. Let’s be honest, how much of our faith is simply following a habit from our youth? When was the last time you really thought about what you believe and why? Today, Pastor Terry invites you to bring those thoughts to Jesus. To se...

In our daily experience of life amid all the regular routine stuff that goes on, it’s not always easy to keep our faith in the forefront of our mind. If we’re honest, sometimes we start to wonder if Jesus is even there. This is especially true when things fall apart around us or when we fall apart. Today, Pastor Terry tells you that it’s ok to have doubts. No matter what you’ve done or how much yo...

In our lives, we don’t always have a lot of examples of patient, and caring responses when we mess up. Maybe our parents or caregivers yelled at us when we disappointed them, or our bosses “let us have it” when we missed a deadline. It can feel harsh and unfair. But, let’s be honest, how often are we patient and caring when others mess up? Pastor Terry tells you today that Jesus is patient and car...

There’s so much to do in our everyday life. It seems everyone needs our attention and focus – our work, our family, our friends, the church – our calendars fill up as our physical and mental reserves empty. Today, Pastor Terry tells you that the key to managing all the aspects of your life – taking care of the good things and working on the bad – centers on abiding in Jesus. Making time for Him is...

As excited as we Christians are to get to heaven and be with our Father forever, it’s crazy to think that Jesus is more excited for us to get there too! Jesus Himself is waiting for you and me in heaven right now!!! In today’s message, Pastor Terry will encourage you with that one small, but powerful thought! As breathtaking as that is, you also need to remember that God has a place right here, ri...

Unmistakably prayer is SO vital for us Christians! But, a few things for us to look at are how we pray, when we pray, and what we’re praying for. We can see in the Bible, how Jesus prayed and we can learn so much just from a few chapters! In today’s message, Pastor Terry will invite you to look at your own prayer life and look at Jesus’ prayer life, and see how they differ. How you pray, what you...

As a follower of Christ, we are to be sanctified, set apart from other people. We are called to be different and handle things in ways that are strange or completely unknown to the world. in today’s message, Pastor Terry will encourage you that no matter how hard it may be to be different, to stick to it! Jesus is on your side and He IS with you! Helping you along the way, showing you how to be mo...
