Treasuring Scripture

How do we live moment-to-moment making wise decisions? The answer is given to us in Ephesians 5. Paul tells us to "be filled with the Spirit." What does this look like? What exactly is being "filled with the Spirit?" Our ability to live wisely each day is dependent on getting this question right.

This Sunday we hear Paul testify to the essential elements of the gospel while seeking to lead a man to Christ!

This week we bring our series on the Lord's Prayer to a close. Jesus gives a parable after the prayer to illustrate our need to continually bring our petitions to our gracious, heavenly Father. Take time to read Luke 11:5-13 in preparation for Sunday.

This week we come to the final request in the Lord's Prayer, "Lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil." Those of us who have come to Christ, know that although we have been redeemed and credited with the righteousness of Christ, we still battle the flesh and the devil. This request should be our continual prayer to God.

God is gracious and merciful to save us! He reaches down into our helplessness with light, hope, and help. He not only rescues us, but He also keeps us secure until the end. The Father, Son, and Spirit all play a role in our salvation.  Amazingly, God has also ordained that you and I play a part in helping each other make it to Heaven safely! We are going to talk about that this Sunday! The church...

As believers, battling sin is a regular part of our daily experience. Through the power of the gospel we can have victory over sin, but what do we do if we fall? Join us this Sunday as we study the phrase, "Forgive us our debts, as we also have forgiven our debtors." Read Matthew 6:9-14 in preparation for the gathering.

Join us as Pastor Brian speaks on the next segment of the series on The Lord's Prayer . We must learn to pray for God's Kingdom to Come.

Before Jesus teaches His disciples how to pray, He teaches them how not to pray. Citizens of heaven who desire to live in a dependent relationship with the Father must learn these valuable lessons on prayer.

This week we begin a short series on prayer. Jesus' disciples come to Him and ask for guidance on prayer. May God help our church to begin to look to Jesus for guidance on how we can pray rightly.

This Sunday we will have the privilege of hearing Chris Anderson share from God's Word. Chris was formerly the senior pastor at Killian Hill Baptist Church and is currently serving on the executive team at Biblical Ministries Worldwide. 

This Sunday we will explore another key text that gives insight on living our Christian life. Colossians 3:1-17 reminds us of our identity in Jesus Christ and the subsequent response to this glorious position as children of God.

This week we will investigate one of the most famous passages in the Bible. In Romans 12:1-2 , Paul calls believers to be living sacrifices.  On account of God's mercy to us, we must present our lives to God. 

This Sunday we will continue our Core Values Series by examining Faithful Stewardship.  When stewardship is mentioned, our minds gravitate to how we use our money, but stewardship is much more than that. It involves every aspect of our lives because nothing we have, nothing we have accomplished or dream of doing is possible apart from God's gracious, overflowing generosity towards us. To prep...

Our core value of faithful stewardship states that we generously invest our God-given resources to further His eternal purposes. But why would we live that way? What would motivate us to that kind of life? What promises of God would even spur us on to sacrificial generosity? Take some time to read through Philippians 4:14-20 in preparation for our study together this Sunday.

It's trendy to speak of finding contentment through minimalistic living, simplifying, and decluttering, but what does the Bible reveal to be the secret of true contentment ? This Sunday we will return to our study of Philippians and consider verses 4:10-13 .

Our minds are often dominated by a relentless stream of information, but followers of Jesus cannot allow our thoughts to be held captive by this world. If God's peace is going to guard us, we must intentionally set our minds on the things of God. Meditate on Philippians 4:8-9 as you prepare for our gathering Sunday.
