What is the Truth concerning the Resurrection of Jesus Christ? How is reverent to us today? Explore these questions and others in this lesson On The Truth of the Resurrection.

Peter gives us many great things to take away and apply to our lives from his second epistle, but if you were to read it as a letter the way it was written without chapters and verses, you might see something altogether different. Not that there are many great things in this epistle, but at least three things stand out, three Truth’s To Live By In A Spiritually Depraved World. Peter want’s to stir you up to remembrance, so you will recall the words previously spoken to you by the holy prophets and the commands of our Lord Jesus Christ (2 Peter 3.1,2 emphases added). What are these Truth’s To Live By: His Divine Power has given us Everything Required for Life and Godliness Watch Out for False Teachers Don’t Lose Hope in What God Has Promised Join with us as we study the Epistle of 2 Peter and the Truths that lie within its pages.

Have you ever wondered if Jesus was a real person? Did He really live? If so how would that affect my life? In the Epistle of 1 John, John gives us the answers to these questions and many more. He and the other Apostles was Eyewitness to the Life and Times of Jesus. John is writing to us, to encourage us to also be Eyewitness for Jesus. John says in 1 John 1:1 (CSB) What was from the beginning, what we have heard, what we have seen with our eyes, what we have observed and have touched with our hands, concerning the Word of Life. It is this Word of Life, Jesus Christ that we too are Eyewitness of, as He has entered our lives, transforming them, making us into a new creature (2 Cor. 5.17). Listen with us as we study these first 4 verses of this amazing book to see how “You are Eyewitness”.

I Am A Sinful Man - Luke 5.1-11 When your tired how do you react? Do you push on, or sit down? When someone that knows less than you tells you how to do something what do you say? In Luke 5, Peter Finds himself in both of these situations and his response is one of obedience, amazement, and brokenness. It is only then that we can see where God wants to take us. Walk with us through Luke's Event on the Sea and see how it change 3 lives that day, and maybe yours today.

It has been amazing to see the things that God has done in my life over the years. I have not lived the way I know that God would have wanted me too, but I know that I do my best to serve Him each and every day.  In this message we look at Matthew 16.24 and Luke 5.31, 32 and see how God has used them over the last couple of years to influence my life and the lives of people around me. In the process I weave in my personal testimony of where I have been, what I am doing and where I believe God is leading me. Come and listen to this personal message from me to you.

Rejoicing Together In God's Plan of Redemption - Romans 15.7-13 As Paul wraps up his encouragement to the church at Roman to be united as one in the body of Christ, he reminds them that they are to rejoice in what God has done for them. In this section of Romans, Paul give three simple but impact-full insights not only to the church at Roman but for each of us. He gives Basic Instructions (v. 7) concerning how we are to receive each other into the fellowship. Remember that everything is done for the Glory of God. Then he gives us some Biblical Illustrations (v. 8-12) About Jesus, the Jews and the Gentiles and how all fit into Gods plan. Finally he concludes with a Benedictory Pray of Intercession (v. 13) all to the God Hope, Joy and Peace that He alone will reign in all and be in all. Come join us as we Rejoice Together in God's Plan of Redemption.

From time to time I love to take a book of the Bible and do a brief survey, and Galatians is one of those books. Paul packs so much great and powerful instruction in it, from his personal testimony, to rebuking Peter, to encouraging the churches in Galatia to stand strong in the face of false teaching, to have unity, to support one another, and lift each other up. In this survey we look at four verses Galatians 1.6, 2.20, 3.27 and 6.1-3. Each of these verses builds on the previous, beginning with Galatians 1.6, where Paul says, “I am so amazed that you have turned away from the gospel of Him who has called you, unto another gospel.” Imagine turning away from the Gospel that Paul was teaching – come listen and see how we might be doing the same today and how to get back on track with God.

Christian Unity - Pleasing One Another as Christ Did Romans 15.1-6 Christian Unity is not something that necessary in the church it is essential. Without Unity in the church, the devil can get his foot in the door and cause all kinds of conflict and strife. Paul give great words of encouragement as to how we as Christian's must live our lives to be in unity with one another. He calls us to Follow Christ Example that we find in Philippians 2.5-11. Come with us as we journey through Romans and see how each of us can be united as one, so the world will see the Love of God in us.

What did your life look like before Christ came into it? Without Christ your life is like a ship without a sail, just going wherever the waves wanted to take it. Your life is a mess, and that might be fine with you. You think that you are having a great time, but look around you, what do you see? Is it really that much fun? Really? With Christ in your life it might be difficult, but you know where you are headed and you have someone that is leading you down the right path. Jesus Christ will never leave you or forsake you, no matter how bad things might seem. Take a few moments and listen with us as we see that the Author of Hebrews has to say about Your Life Before and After Christ.

Sermon Series from Psalm - Sermon 4 of 6 'A Thankful Heart' - Psalm 138 - We need to have a Thankful heart all the time for the Lord for what He has done for us, but as Thanksgiving is just a few days a way we need to think even more about what the Lord has done for us. In this Psalm the Psalmist reminds us that we to have A Thankful Heart we must have it will - For Your Whole Being, it is For the Whole World, and For Your Whole Life. We must have a Thankful heart at all times of no one will know that you are a Christian and the world will miss out on Jesus Christ. So lets be Thankful and Show it today.

Sermon Series from Psalm - Sermon 3 of 6 'The Lord will Deliver the Righteous' - Psalm 34 - The Lord Delivers the Righteous through: Praising God (1-3), Prayer (4-7), Plentiful Provisions (8-10), Precious Lips (11-14), Penitent Spirit (15-18), and Protection from Above (19-22). As the Lord can and does deliver the Righteous, we must make sure that we are walking in the ways of the Lord and keeping Him mindful at all times.

Sermon Series from Psalm - Sermon 2 of 6 The Lord's Supper - Psalm 22 - A deeper look into what Jesus Christ went though at the cross so that we could come before His Table and remember all that He has done for us. Sister passage of Scripture is 1 Corinthians 11:23-31

Sermon Series from Psalm - Sermon 1 of 6 'A Cry for A Nation" from Psalm 51 is a call for our church and all churches to come before God and Recognize their Sin, Repent of their Sin, Be Restored from their Sin, Have Real Praise for God, and then Recognize True Self. It is all then will the God's People really be able to make any real changes in our society.

God's Grace is beyond belief - It is so amazing that God would send His Only Son to earth to die for a wicked sinful person such as me. But, that is what is so amazing about God's Grace, He is extending to us something that we do not deserve, and we sure do not deserve heaven, eternal life with Him, or even His Love yet He has give all these thing to those who will accept the free Gift of His Son's Sacrifice at the Cross. By Believing in Jesus Christ you may have eternal life, through confession you let others know what you have done and because of God's Grace you will give your life to Him as a living sacrifice everyday (Romans 12:1,2) This series on Grace touches on: God's Immeasurable Grace - How Great God's Grace is - John 19:15-37 God's Grace that is Greater than our Sins - No matter you sins God's Grace is Greater -  Romans 5:12-22 Cheap Grace - How we have cheapen God's Grace - Romans 6:1-14 Costly Grace - What is cost God and How we should respond - Romans 6:15-23

The Grace of God is Sufficient in all situations. Jesus said in 2 Corinthians 12:9, "My grace is sufficient for you, for power is perfected in weakness." (HCSB) Paul said in verse 12, "For when I am weak, then I am strong." (HCSB) It is this understanding of God's grace and remaining in His power and might that will get us thru each day.

In this day an age where everything seems to be going wrong, we need encouragement and guidance on how to survive the desperate times. Young Esther gives us some good insight into this very topic with her willingness to go before the king Ahasuerus even if it meant the end of her life.

Suffering happens to us all, but why? Jesus never said that the Christian life would be a bed of rose, in fact if one really looks closely at the Bible Jesus Christ says just the opposite. He talks about the world hating us, not because of us, but because they do not like Him therefore they do not like us. They will persecute you because of him. But suffering goes even further than that, without suffering there would be no way for you to grow within your faith. As a child you fall, you got up tried again, fall again, and did it all over. That is suffering we don't think about it but it is - in the same way Christians must go through trials in life to grow in the faith and walk with God. Look at 1 Corinthians 10:13, God does not give us more than we can handle and always gives us a way out that is through Him (Paraphrased). Peter wants his reads to understand that there is a purpose for suffering and what suffering is all about and that is what this chapter is about. In this two part series we will learn about: The Purpose of Suffering - 1 Peter 4:1-11 What is Suffering- 1 Peter 4:12-19

Part 3 in a 4 Part Message series on the Glorious Salvation provided to us by Jesus Christ

Our Glorious as see by the Apostle Peter. In this first chapter we explore the Source and Guarantee of our Salvation, The Joy of our Salvation (No Audio), Your Response to Salvation and the Cost of Salvation(No Audio) Please walk with us as we walk through the Book of 1 Peter. Part 1 of a 4 Part series on the Glorious Salvation that our Lord Jesus Christ has provided.

Your life is a stage that you are acting on for the world to see. The question is are you willing to sacrifice yourself for Jesus Christ so that the world might see Him instead of you?

You are called to serve God the moment you said Yes to Him as your Lord and Savior. So the Question is what are you doing with your life for Jesus Christ?

Why does God love me? That is a great question. Many of us know John 3:16 but what about the verses that follow, they teach us so much more about why Jesus Christ came and how He loved us so.

God calls the people together to declare that He alone is God. There is no other God before Him and there will be no other God after Him (Is. 43:10b) He says in Is. 43 12b "I Am God" What does that mean for us today?

New Year Message about a New Beginning looking at the first new Beginning the Creation of the World

Christ Center Worship - Where is your worship? Is it on the world or on Christ?

Why did Jesus Christ Come to earth? The obvious answer is to bring Salvation to the earth, which He did through His death on the cross. But many of us are stilling lacking the real power that Jesus Christ provides in our family life. Jesus Christ came to bring us life and life more abundant, but are you living a life more abundant? Have you been made whole? Is your family whole? In the Book of Luke we see the events of two different kinds of families. One was a loving, compassionate family that obeyed God and walked in His ways, and commandments. The other was not even a family yet. But were engaged to be married, and then Mary the mother of Jesus comes up pregnant before she is married. What was Joseph to do? How would you have handled the situation. Consider the two families, which are you? Can you relate to either of them? How did God help them? He can help you if you will let Him. Will you make your Family a Whole Family?

Jesus Christ came and was born of a virgin so that He would be the perfect Lamb to take away the sins of the world. Each person that ask Him to come into their heart has been made whole by His shed blood at the cross. But to many times we as Christians think that is all we need and we walk around life holding on to hatred, anger, envy, causing strife wherever we go. But Jesus Christ came so that we could be made Whole, not just saved. In John 5:1-9 Jesus asked the lame man :Wilt thou be made Whole?" And I believe that question holds true today, Wilt thou be made Whole? You must come to the source Jesus Christ to be made whole, do not run from Him but come to Him and be made Whole today.

Thank God for.... What are you thanking God for this year. Paul tells the Corinthians what He is thankful for and and how they ought to be thankful. We to can learn from what Paul tells the Corinthians. Thank God for...
