You may have have heard it said that the best commentary on the Bible, is the Bible itself. This is to say that one of the most remarkable aspects of Scripture is that the answers and clarity we often seek regarding certain passages can actually be found throughout the entirety of God's Word. As Pastor Terry will teach you in his message today, one of the most important keys of understanding regar...

If someone were charged with the commission to go and share important information with the masses, the last thing you think they'd do is be cryptic in their delivery. However, when it comes to Jesus and His Kingdom parable, this is exactly what He did for two distinct reasons. As Pastor Terry will teach you in his message today, Jesus began teaching in parables so as to further draw in His discipl...

Whether you've been pouring through the pages of the Bible regularly or you're brand new to its treasures, chances are you're familiar with the term “parable.” This is a form of teaching that Christ regularly used on His disciples for a wide variety of reasons, one of which was to test them.

While it can be fairly easy for us as believers to get caught off guard by spiritual attacks, many of us have no problem immediately identifying them. However, just because we've successfully identified an attack from our enemy, it doesn't always mean that we're well equipped to handle them properly. In today's message, Pastor Terry will teach you the absolute importance of being equipped with the...

Proud, arrogant, rude, hateful, angry. These are only but a few on a long list of every negative descriptor we could think of when it comes to our sinful nature.

Pastor Terry talks to us today about what a parent-child relationship looks like through the lens of the Bible. We live in a world where many children are born without intention.

Pastor Terry comes to us today talking about what a marriage looks like when it’s centered around God. As Christians, it can sometimes be too easy to be hypocritical.

When you preach that lying is a sin and you turn around and withhold part of the truth from your partner, isn’t that being two-faced? You may look at your homosexual...

Today, Pastor Terry reads from Ephesians to tell us how a Godly marriage is structured. Relationships can be difficult. Men and women were created very different from each other with vastly different strengths and different weaknesses. We live in a world where people are constantly trying to blur that line.

We live in a society that is so used to ‘instant satisfaction’ that any amount of time spent in silence is considered boring or a waste.

Pastor Terry tells us today what it means to repent and be made new th...

Pastor Terry talks to us today about the beauty of repentance and what it looks like to follow Christ. How many times have you tried to break a habit and been unsuccessful?
