A message from the series "Ephesians." Sunday we will continue our sub-series “Standing Firm”. Our message will focus on Ephesians 6:10-18 “The Whole Armor of God”. How wonderful it is to know that when we come to know Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior, we are given a suit of armor and weaponry to enter the battle against the forces of evil. That equipment grows stronger and more powerful as we grow in our faith.

A message from the series "Ephesians." This past Sunday, Pastor Dave introduced us to Ephesians 6:10-20, “The Whole Armor of God”. In his teaching, we learned of the “Reality of an Enemy” and of “Spiritual Warfare”. Verse 11 says, “Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the schemes of the devil”. Early in scripture, God gives us the account of Job, a righteous man, mature in character that gave all glory to God. In this story, we see the reality of the enemy and the example of wearing the armor of God when in spiritual warfare. Please read Job chapters 1 – 2 in preparation for Sunday’s message.

A message from the series "Ephesians." This Sunday, Pastor Dave will continue our study of Ephesians, focusing on chapter 6 verses 10-20. After a brief review of the first 5 ½ chapters of Ephesians, we will take the first step in an extended study of the “Armor of God’. Moving from the metaphor of walking, and the worthy walk, we will now look at what it means to stand firm in the Lord against the devil and spiritual forces.

A message from the series "Ephesians." On Sunday, Pastor Chris will have us turn to Ephesians 6:5-9. God’s word written by Paul in the first century A.D. is as relevant today as it was then. The question begs, “in serving Christ what should our heart and our actions look like as employees or as an employer?” Is doing a good job being obedient to God and within His will? Is it part of our witness how we project Christ as an employee or an employer? Join us Sunday as Pastor Chris unpacks this important section of Scripture.

A message from the series "Standalone." his Sunday, Pastor Dave will take us to Acts 2:42-47. The message theme is “These are my People”, looking at life in the Church of God, as the “People” of God. The early church set the example of believers bonding as family. Brothers and sisters in Christ worshiping, breaking bread, and caring for each other. Their fellowship, meaning “having in common”, was voluntary and motivated by love. All characteristics of God’s design that our churches should mirror today.

A message from the series "Behind the Veil." Please read and meditate on 2 Corinthians 3:1-18, which in Paul’s beautiful prose, describes the contrast of the “Old Covenant of Death and the New Covenant of Life”. This section is a celebration of the work of Christ, a “New Covenant”, written on the hearts of believers. Please take some precious time this week reading God’s word in Corinthians and reflecting on all that we have discovered of His great work throughout the Bible.

A message from the series "Behind the Veil." As we continue in our summer series, “Behind the Veil: exalting Christ through the entire Bible”, we will look at the story of Joseph in Genesis 37 to 50. Joseph, in his life, went from rejection and betrayal to resurrection. In chapter 45, Joseph, in his love for his brothers, forgave them, giving grace for their sin against him. He said in verse 5, “God sent me before you to preserve life”. Join us Sunday to hear how Kenny unfolds the life of Joseph and how in it we see Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior.

A message from the series "Behind the Veil." This Sunday, Pastor Chris will take us to one of the most loved and comforting of the Psalms, Psalm 23, “The Lord Is My Shepherd”. It is believed that David wrote this Psalm when he was King of Israel. Obviously, he had grown in his personal relationship with the Lord and reflected on his days as a shepherd. As you read and study Psalm 23 this week, ask this question: “Who was his audience?”.

A message from the series "Behind the Veil." As we continue our summer message series, “Behind the Veil, Exalting Christ through the entire Bible”, we will open to 2 Samuel 7:1-17. David had a heart to build a house for the Lord, but God had much greater plans than a house of cedar. In this scripture, God makes with David a covenant. A promise of a Kingdom from David’s house that will last forever and a Messiah that will reign forever.
