Touching the Father’s Heart

A message primarily focused to our church, however the principles can be applied to any church. The sermon is based on scripture showing how important children are to God. There are practical measures suggested to increase the church's ministry to children and, by extension, their families. 

Joy Comes in the Morning

Times are hard but Christians have reasons to rejoice. Beginning with 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18 we look at the Apostle Paul's encouragement to rejoice.

The Pasts Conflict

One thought says to forget what lies behind, another says if we forget the past we are doomed to repeat its mistakes. Which one is right. Listen as we discuss and resolve this apparent conflict.

The Promise of Christmas - Hope

The prophecies of Jesus' birth occurred at a very dark time in Israel's history. Suffering under Roman occupation and the silence of God the Israelites had little reason to hope. But God had a plan and in 400 years Jesus Christ would be born bringing light into the darkness of the world. Jesus' birth brought hope to a world lost in darkness. Opening scripture is Isaiah 9:2 with other scriptures from the New Testament.

The Greatest Story Ever Told - A Service of Lessons and Carols

A very special service the Sunday before Christmas with congregational singing of numerous Christmas Carols interspersed with readings from Luke chapter two telling of Jesus' birth.

Milagro Doble

We often focus on the birth of Jesus by the Virgin Mary and rightly so, but there was another miraculous birth that occurred at almost the same time. In this sermon we look at the accounts in Luke chapter 1 of Milagro Doble (Double Miracle).

This Shall Be A Sign

Using Isaiah 7:12-17 the sermon looks at God's desire for people to know what He is doing. He has given signs and prophecies over all time even before written records by placing the Gospel in the Stars so early man could gaze up at the stars and discern the account of Jesus Christ. This sermon reference the Sign Virgo and three constellations within that sign.

What to Give Christ for Christmas: Yourself

For this Christmas season we will look at what we can give Jesus Christ for Christmas. This message is subtitled, "Yourself". It looks at the gift of yielding ourselves to Christ. First in accepting Him as Savior and Lord and then by living our life according to His teachings. The opening scripture is Matthew 1:18-25.

Thanksliving

Using a high school reunion of children of missionaries, their thankfulness in spite of hard times is an example of how we can be thankful in everything. An encouragement to be thankful this Thanksgiving season because God sees and knows of our need. God "remembers" us. 

Christian Architecture

Jesus Christ give us a five-fold plan for building a great church.
