Book of Esther When we think about fathers, we often search the Bible for stories about Abraham or look to God the Father. But I’d like to take you to a text that shows a good father who became one by choice. He was a good dad making good decisions that set his daughter up… Continue reading Mordecai – Good Dad, Good Decisions

Join us to hear how local our mission fields can be.

Psalms 145:1-9Psalm 145 calls us to invite the next generation into God’s greater story, praising Him for His wonderful works. We are asking God to raise up faithful leaders in the generations to come and for us to be faithful in commending to them the Gospel.

Psalm 110 Psalm 110 is a Psalm written by King David. This Psalm is not well known compared to other Psalms like Psalm 23 but it is quoted more than any other Psalm in the New Testament. Jesus uses this Psalm to explain to people who He was and the statement is amazing.

Acts 9:10-17 Experiencing God starts with a yes. God doesn’t just speak to the Moses type people, He speaks and calls us all to join Him in what He is doing. We’ll see that in this passage found in Acts.
