Dear Church Family, There are times in my life when I know what is right, do what is right, but wish in my heart that I didn’t have to do it. Obligatory obedience is better than disobedience but falls short of God’s desire for us. On Sunday we will be returning to Matthew’s gospel. Our text is Matthew 14:22-33. The title of the message is “Conquering the Willful Heart.” Other verses that will prepare you for this extremely interesting passage are Habakkuk 3:17-18, Isaiah 43:1-2, and Acts 23:10-11. May the Lord bless our time together on Sunday. A grateful heart is of inestimable value. May the Lord grant you one this holiday season. God bless you and have a wonderful day! In His Abundant Grace, Pastor...

Dear Church Family, I don’t think that any of us basks in the glory when we think about being in an impossible situation. We don’t know what to do, how to escape, where to turn, or how to improve our situation. Jesus very well may have us exactly where He wants us. On Sunday morning we will be looking at Matthew 14:13-21. The title of the message is “Counting on Jesus for the Impossible.” Other verses that will prepare your heart for this encouraging message are Job 42:1-2, Psalm 115:3, and Luke 18:24-27. It should be a great morning worshipping the all-powerful God who cares. Have a blessed day as you serve the God who can do all things. In His Matchless Grace, Pastor...

Dear Church Family, “Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder” is a solid saying. The perspective of two people can be quite different regarding whether another person is attractive or not. The same can be said about what is right or who is righteous. Fortunately, the only opinion that matters on issues of morality and righteousness is God. On Sunday we will look at quite a contrast. The title of the message is “Differences Between the Righteous and Unrighteous.” Out text is Matthew 14:1-12. Other verses that will prepare you for our time together are I Kings 18:15-19, Jeremiah 38:14-19, and Proverbs 28:11. May the Lord bless our time worshipping Him together. May the Lord bless you richly throughout the rest of the week. Have a blessed day in Jesus! Gratefully Yours, Pastor...

Dear Church Family, We love to extol the power and possibilities of faith in our Christ-following communities. Rightly so, since the Bible magnifies the importance of faith and how it can move the mountains in our life. However, we rarely consider the power of unbelief. On Sunday we will consider this clandestine theme. The title of the sermon is “The Amazing Power of Unbelief.” Our text is Matthew 12:53-58. Other verses that will prepare you for our time in God’s Word are I Kings 18:17-18, Obadiah 3, and John 12:27-29. I am very much looking forward to sharing with you from this interesting and relevant passage. May the joy of the Lord be your strength today and always. God bless you and see you on Sunday! In His Matchless Grace, Pastor...

Dear Church Family, Warnings can be a blessing. A warning can prevent us from taking the wrong job, going to the wrong vacation spot, or going to the wrong doctor. We don’t always like to hear a warning, but they can serve a useful purpose in our lives. On Sunday we will be looking at Matthew 13:47-52. The title of the message is “Divine Judgment and Human Proclamation.” Other verses that will prepare you for our time in God’s word are Daniel 4:24-30, Jeremiah 34:1-6, and Acts 24:24-26. I am praying that the Lord will meet us on Sunday morning. May you obey the Lord’s commandments and heed His warnings as you live fruitfully for Him. God bless you and enjoy the rest of your week! Because of His Grace, Pastor...

Dear Church Family, Different people consider different things to be precious. The list of precious things include friends, family, freedom, mothers, money, momentum, home, happiness, and health. All of these things and many more are precious to people. However, none of them is in the same league as the most precious thing in the world. On Sunday we will be looking at Matthew 13:44-46. The title of the sermon is “Entering God’s Kingdom.” Other verses that will prepare you for our time in God’s Word are Jeremiah 9:23-24, :Luke 10:17-20, and Philippians 3:10.
