Last week, we explored the greatness of Jesus as we looked at His life and earthly ministry, but we know His life ended abruptly as He carried out God’s plan to restore, renew, and repair our relationship with Him. Jesus was tried, sentenced, flogged, and crucified. Roman crucifixion was horrific, crafted to shame the victim and designed...

As we begin this month, knowing what is going on around the world, let’s remind ourselves of this truth – Jesus is still King! He is in control and the message of his life, sacrifice, and resurrection have never been more timely or significant. In the coming weeks, we will explore how we can take comfort in the fact that Jesus is...

As this month comes to a close, we find ourselves 18 years in and anticipate the best is yet to come. Often, after many years, leaders and people arrive at a point in life where they stop playing offense and begin to play defense – in other words, they stop dreaming!

We have to keep dreaming – playing offense toward expansion and...

Over our church’s 18-year journey there have been many times I have found myself walking through seasons of disappointment and discouragement. While these seasons are common in our lives here on earth, it doesn’t make them any less challenging. Yet what I have learned along the way is these seasons are purposeful and help us to grow...

Most people know her story -  Rosa Parks, seamstress, refused to give up her seat on the segregated bus in Montgomery, Alabama on the first of December in 1955 and in doing so sparked the modern...

Let’s begin this week with a goal to cease struggling and find our hope in God to make the changes toward the life of health and wholeness God desires for us. Whether you are struggling with the same issues again and again or looking for a complete transformation in your life toward complete healing – the answer is found in...

As we continue our quest for health and wholeness greater than we’ve had before, we have to uncover God’s design for us as humans. God created each of us – spirit, soul (mind, will, and emotions), and body. When we become believers, receiving Christ as our personal Savior, our relationship with God changes because the Holy...

Last week, we discovered our bodies are meant for the Lord. In Psalm 100:3, we read, “Know that the Lord is God. It is He who made us, and we are His; we are his people, the sheep of his pasture.” We see a similar statement in Psalm 24:1, “The earth is the Lord’s, and everything in it, the...
