Preached by Jared Kress on Feb. 15, 2026. Music is an incredibly powerful force that can be used for good or evil, and it is a unique instrument in the worship of God. Today, we will examine the inescapability of music in our universe, its power, and how it can be used as God intended. May we understand the power of music as a God-given tool, and commit to using it for His glory. As we consider the inescapability of music in the universe, we see:1. The Ubiquity of Music    1. Man's Song    2. Nature's Song    3. Angels' Song    4. Jesus' Song    5. God's Song2. The Power of Music:    1. Peace for Saul    2. Prophecy for Elisha    3. Prisoner's Song    4.

Preached by Jared Kress on Feb. 8 2026. Main Idea: Each era of worship throughout biblical and church history has something to celebrate and has contributed significantly to what we now enjoy as “blended worship.” Blended worship should not simply aim to find a middle ground between extreme styles, but instead involve curating the best lessons learned throughout history. Challenge: How can we learn from the best lessons and failures of history to have the most God-honoring approach to worship? Eight Eras of Musical Worship1. Personal & Priestly2. Tambourines & Tabernacle3. Psalms & Professionalism4. Synagogue & Study5. Christ & Creeds6. Transcendent & Theatrical 7. Hymnals & Homiletics8.

Preached by Jared Kress on January 11, 2026Our culture is very “expert-heavy” right now, with a whirlwind of advice and slogans constantly coming at you, especially in family life. Despite the world's ever-changing advice, ensure your family is guided by God's wisdom.  Pray and ask the Lord to reveal areas in your life where you've depended too heavily on worldly advice, neglecting biblical wisdom. Trust Three Things:1. God's Word is Sufficient2. Man's Wisdom is Folly3.

I greet you in Jesus' precious name! It is Saturday morning, 15th November 2025, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today. We start in the Gospel of John 6:15:”Therefore when Jesus perceived that they were about to come and take Him by force to make Him king, He departed again to the mountain by Himself alone.” The most humble person who has ever lived! He said if you want to be the best or the greatest, you must become the least. They wanted to make Him king. He knew it was not His time. He withdrew to the mountains by Himself. Oh folks, we need to be more like Jesus. There are too many of us clamouring to become famous and popular. I looked up John Lennon. He was the leader of probably the most famous rock and roll band in the world at the time, The Beatles. He made a statement and he did apologise afterwards. He said that they were more popular than Jesus, but at the age of 40, he was gunned down and he died.Elvis Presley - I've been to Graceland in Memphis Tennessee, I went with my good friend Tommy. We went to that beautiful house to go and have a look. It was one of the saddest places I've ever been. They said he was such a generous man. Elvis Presley was regarded as the most popular man in the world. They called him “The King of Rock and Roll,” but he could never sleep. He used to play the piano into the early hours of the morning and he would sing hymns they said. His kitchen was open 24 hours a day. He was thronged with friends, well I don't know if they were friends or hangers-on, so much so that his wife and his little daughter eventually left him, and then at the age of 42 years old, in the newspapers, the headlines, “The king is dead.”I want to say to you today, don't seek after the popularity of men, of society, of this world, rather seek after the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords, the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End, a Friend who sticks closer than a brother, Jesus Christ. Rather be like Him, and you will live a long time and you will live a peaceful life because when you follow Jesus, He gives you life eternal! Jesus bless you and have a wonderful and quiet day,Goodbye.
