The Lighthouse of Faith and Worship

2 Corinthians 7:1 NKJV  Therefore, having these promises, beloved, let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit, perfecting holiness in the fear of God.

Maybe today you have found yourself in the same boat when it comes to unbelief. You believe, but it's just not a strong belief....you know you can ask to have that faith strengthened! Jesus will show up. Know that when this happens, your patience will be strengthened as well. 

Jesus never fails to meet us if we will only believe. Need healing? Ask, approach, believe!

Joel 2:17

The enemy uses every tactic legal or not in his attempt to subdue you. God equips us to overcome, even at the very end.

Unity is great among believers, but we had better be in Unity with what God is doing!

It has been said, you can pick your neighbors, but you can't pick your family. Think about that. If you have ever bought your house, haven't you at least checked out your potential neighbor's yards, cars, landscaping, garbage piles, scrap metal piles, upkeep on their houses? Sure you have you do it because you want to know what you might be getting yourself into. Because you are going to live ther...

As you may remember from the last three weeks, we are looking at Ephesians, the work God has completed, and the work God will do through us.  We looked at the way God restores and builds what has been broken down. We talked about the fact that God's blessings are not removed, we also talked about how we are not able to pick those people we are born into a family with. We can, however, choose...

A sermon from our Ephesians Series.

Are you an Overcomer?

You know when I was a boy, I attended Martin Luther School in Grand Rapids, Michigan. It was a Lutheran Parochial School. One of the things we studied was scripture memory and we studied bible stories. One of the stories that always stuck in my head was when the woman stuck that guy through the temple with the tent peg. Of course, that story is told in Judges 4:21. About that time in my life, I le...

“Discernment is not knowing the difference between right and wrong. It is knowing the difference between right and almost right.” —C.H. Spurgeon

Just as we have choices to be lead or to be driven, as you will remember from last week's sermon, this week we look at the mission of the Wise Men. These men from far distant eastern lands came to worship the King of the Jews.  As the Gentiles, they recognized Jesus for his Kingship, His Human Form and his Diety. Gold, Frankincense and Myrrh. As we have heard Wise Men and Women still seek him...

Don't let a history of bad choices define your future. God has a Purpose and a Plan for your life. He offers HOPE in the name and person of Jesus Christ.

Sometimes we have to remember Who our Father is. When the enemy tries to use scare tactics and attack us in vulnerable places, we need to remember the God we serve!

Psalms 100:1-5 NLT  A psalm of thanksgiving. Shout with joy to the LORD, all the earth!  (2)  Worship the LORD with gladness. Come before Him, singing with joy.  (3)  Acknowledge that the LORD is God! He made us, and we are His. We are His people, the sheep of His pasture.  (4)  Enter His gates with thanksgiving; go into His courts with praise. Give thanks to Him...

A sermon from 2018 Palm Sunday

2 Kings 5:1-17.  Unconventional. Everything we desire is based on our conventional way of thinging. When we look at things in light of WHO God is, and HOW he wants things done, it leads us to an unconventional experience. Naaman found this out. Now we will too!

Series on Ephesians.

Revelation 4:1-2

Proverbs 27:17. Will you be sharpened or remain dull?

This is a follow-up sermon to one I preached in 2017. It is a testimony that I have seen unravel before my eyes. God always has the last word, no matter what kind of a mess we make of our lives, when Jesus shows up, our life is renewed!

The final installment of the sub-series on the Book of Revelation concerning the Letters to the Churches.  This morning we will look at the Door that Jesus opens that no one can close. We will also look at what God wants from the church concerning our ability to be used.

The Company we keep speaks to who we will be.

Have you ever visited a church and thought, wow these guys have it together. They have all the right programs, they have people in every capacity and everything runs so perfect. The Worship service is on point, the pastor never messes up his delivery, they have huge facilities... That isn't us. And guess what, that wasn't going on in the churches that these letters are written to in Revelation. La...
