“The First Christmas: A Christmas of Firsts” – December 16th, 2020

“The First Christmas: A Christmas of Firsts” – December 16th, 2020

Dear Church Family, The “firsts” in life are oftentimes memorable and enjoyable. I remember with fondness the first car that I owned. It was a black  Plymouth Volare and it served me well for a number of years. I also fondly remember my first date with my wife Melinda. It was at a club in downtown Pittsburgh where my company celebrated the completion of the Alcoa Aluminum audit. We remember the “firsts” in our lives because they frequently are special. The first Christmas is like that in several ways. On Sunday we will be looking at Luke 1:30-35. The title of the message is The First Christmas: A Christmas of Firsts. Other verses that will prepare you for our time in God’s word are John 8:58, Psalm 89:27-29, and I John 3:5. I am looking forward to worshipping with you this Sunday morning. May the uniqueness of Christmas fill you with awe and gratitude this Christmas season. God bless you and have a wonderful day. In His Matchless Grace, Pastor...

“Happy are the Harassed” – December 2nd, 2020

Dear Church Family, As followers of the Lord Jesus we all want to live at peace with others. Sometimes, however, others don’t want to live at peace with us. Our faith and commitment to follow Jesus makes a peaceful relationship with them impossible. On Sunday morning we will be looking at Matthew 5:10-12. The message title is “ Happy are the Harassed.” Other verses that will prepare you for this final beatitude are Acts 5:40-42, I Peter 2:20-23, and Exodus 2:20-23. May we all be blessed by our time in God’s word. Have a wonderful day as you seek to please God more than men. God bless you and stay close to Jesus! In His Sustaining Grace, Pastor...

“Blessed are the Peacemakers” – November 25th, 2020

Dear Church Family, Boy, is there a lack of peace in this world! Living in harmony has been a challenge since Cain and Abel and the present condition of the world has created new challenges for people to be at peace with one another. That is why the role of peacemaker is at such a high premium. On Sunday morning we will be giving our attention to Matthew 5:9. The title of the message is “Blessed are the Peacemakers.” Other verses that will prepare you for our time in God’s word are Romans 14:19, Romans 12:18, and James 3:17-18. I’m excited to be with you on Sunday morning. May you experience the Prince of Peace during this Thanksgiving holiday. God bless you and have a great day. Thankful to be Your Pastor, Pastor...
