We are blessed in Jesus’ hands. Its not the same #Blessed as many people think it is; money, good health, good family, prosperous….these are only a shadow of God’s real blessings to us. In Jesus’ hands we are blessed in a more real way. Its about origin and destiny…..and in todays message, we look at both. Come and join us as we see how much we are truly blessed.

Bread is a very ordinary thing. There are many different kinds of bread, but they are still all ordinary. And yet in the hands of Jesus, bread is blessed, bread is broken, and bread is given….and in doing so…..becomes extraordinary. We are like bread in the hands of Jesus, join us as we learn how to fall into the hands of Jesus to go from ordinary to extraordinary.

Today’s message is from Pastor Mike Fabarez.   Self Control is one of the fruits of the spirit, so all Christians should have it.....right?  But is all the responsibility up to God in having self control, or do we play some part in "self" control.  And what are the blessings of having self control in the family of God.  Join us to practically answer all of these questions...

Today’s message is from Pastor Mike Fabarez.   Lifelong faithfulness and effectiveness as Christ’s ambassador is aided by both the unsettling thoughts of our coming evaluation as Christians as well as the joyful prospects of our eternal home.

In the story of David and Goliath….we all know that David wins with day? Why? Because he did everything for the Lord and in the Lord. It’s a great story. What we look at today in our final message on this event is our response to God giving us victory over the giants in our lives. How we respond to victory is tremendously important. Join us as we learn how Christians should respond in victory.

When David overcame Goliath, he had to do three things. He had to clear out the white noise in his life and listen only to God. He had to look to his past to encourage him for the future. And he had to trust God who had already supplied everything he needed to win. Join us as we learn how to live these out in our lives to overcome the giants that we face.

The Porter Family (Austin, Emily, And Tim) are becoming full time missionaries in Farmington, Utah as they will be planting a new church in March of 2023.  Listen in to see the vision of the church, why its needed, and most importantly how you can help.  Christians are not an island unto themselves, we need to band together in community for the glory of God.   www.portersinutah.com

Looking at 2 Samuel 9 we see the grace of God exemplified through King David as he honors someone, who by the cultural standards of the time, was not only worthy, but also had nothing to offer back.  It is a beautiful picture of the grace of Jesus Christ in the new testament.  And it reminds us that the grace of Jesus is for you, for me, for everyone who will accept it, irrelevant of how...

Part 2 of overcoming ‘giants’ in our life. This week we look at young David, a man after God’s own heart, to see what it was about him that helped him overcome the giant that was facing him. We all have ‘giants’ in our lives that confront us, that cause us to fear, that cause us to run away. Join us as we learn from David how to face and overcome our ‘giants’ in life when others run away.

We begin a new series today on the wonderful story of David and Goliath. Like David, we all face ‘giants’ in our life. Our giant could be a bad marriage, financial issues, health problems, family problems, or work issues. God does not want us to be overcome by these giants but to overcome them. In todays message we learn to recognize the voice of the enemy and how he puts us down…..we also realize...

Our final message in our 10 commandments series. We look at the last 3 commandments today and why all the commandments are still so important. They are not to hinder us, rather they are to show us God’s love for us. It is interesting, that ‘the world’ wants what the commandments offer, but they don’t want the commandments to get there. As Christians, we need to exemplify God’s love to others by be...

We continue our study of God’s love written in stone in our study of the 10 commandments. We finish up on the first 4 commandments centered around our relationship with God and start the next 6 commandments concerning our relationship with others. These commands are not meant to restrict us or keep us from fun, but rather to provide us a joyful abundant life. Join us and we see how much God loves...

The 10 commandments of God……hmmmmmm. Are they there to keep you from having fun? Are they there to bind you to a bunch of rules? Or…..perhaps….are they there as a love message from God? Join us as we look that the truth of why God gave us the 10 commandments. They are given to bless us and to protect us. Today we look at why God gave them to us and how they play out in a divine love message to tho...

This morning we look at the greatest promise of God in our “Sweeter than honey; the promises of God series”. And that promise is forgiveness. Join us as we look at 3 key components of God’s forgiveness in our lives. This is big because forgiveness is life changing and transforming!

Today we look at the promise of Gods goodness. We have to step back and remember what Isaiah 55:8-9 states, simply that Gods ways are not our way and our ways are not Gods way. We think Gods goodness is only for when things seem to be going well for us. What we realize is that God may be using difficult situations to get us to goodness. We’ll look at three specific areas in our life in which God p...

In 2 Corinthians 12 the Apostle Paul asks God three times to remove a painful issue from his life. All of us have painful things in our life we would like God to remove. The interesting things is that God answers “no” to Paul’s request. Why? God see’s a bigger picture and a purpose for the issue. God uses a seemingly bad thing to do a good thing in Paul’s life. And Paul learns to accept God’s answ...

Forgiveness needs motivation. Without motivation, it is difficult to do anything. In this final message on Philemon, we look at several motivations to forgive. We also consider the importance of “just committing and making the decision to forgive”. Holding onto unforgiveness or just putting forgiveness off does so much damage. As Christians, we must forgive.

Forgiveness is more than just saying, ‘you’re forgiven’. This morning we look at the Apostle Paul’s letter to Philemon and discover two things. First, 6 reasons “why” it is so important to forgive. Second, 3 actions of one who forgives. We also start off by answering a question last week about forgiveness and forgetting the offense. Join us as we learn great things about forgiveness and reconcilia...

This message is the second in our series of messages on the short book of Philemon. We dig in deeper and look at the character of a person who forgives. What kind of man or woman of God are they? There are 5 key characteristics about forgivers. Join us as we see what it looks like to be more Christlike when it comes to forgiveness and reconciliation.

Forgiveness…..so desired and often, so hard to give to others. We begin a new series this morning looking at the importance of forgiveness and reconciliation as presented in the bible book of Philemon. Join us as we look at why forgiveness is such a big deal as a Christian, and not forgiving is a bigger deal. As we have received, we must also give…..otherwise….our own relationship with God comes i...

Happy Resurrection Sunday! Jesus is Risen, He is Risen indeed! Today, we celebrate with Christians all around the world that the crazy story of Jesus rising from the dead is totally true! And that fact makes all the difference in the world! Join us as we look at the events of the first Easter day through the bible and the mindsets of the first Jesus followers. Their story is so re-assuring because...

As we begin Holy Week with Palm Sunday today leading up to Resurrection Sunday next week, wouldn’t it be awesome to know what Jesus did each day this week to be able to relate with Him and kind of experience all that He went through? Today, we look at each day leading up to Resurrection Sunday. Join us in digging deeper into Jesus’ journey to the cross and to His raising from the grave. It was a b...

What does it mean that Jesus is a sacrificial lamb? The biblical story of the sacrificial lamb is told from Genesis to Revelation and really focused on in the gospels. Jesus was the final sacrificial lamb that ended the need to constantly cover our sins…..that is what is important in salvation. Join us today as we walk through the meaning of the sacrificial lamb and head into Easter.

How low, from the heights of heaven, would Jesus go to save us? As low as he could go…..and then lower. This message inspires us with the reminder of what lengths Jesus was willing to go to in order to bring us to salvation. Even if we’ve heard His story 100 times, this message is a great reminder to re-ignite our spiritual flame. Jesus lowered Himself to our level, to raise us to His level.

Jesus fulfilled over 330 prophecies in the bible. For those that doubt He is God, this should be evidence enough to prove that He is God. Facts are hard to argue with. One of the prophecies is that He would remain silent when He was falsely accused of crimes He did not commit. What would you do, yell back – defend yourself – get vile or violent – show anger? That would be normal for most people….b...
