All of us have an innate desire to experience peace, happiness, and fulfillment in our lives. The reason these rewards are so elusive is because we are striving for them apart from the one who created us. If we want true peace, permanent happiness, and fulfillment they can only be found in God and His Son Jesus Christ.

Our Motivation To Worship
On Palm Sunday so many years ago, we see a crowd gathered to “worship’ Jesus as King. They waved palm branches and laid their cloaks in the street for the donkey to cross over. These were merely outward expressions they thought they had to do, to get the King to do what they wanted Him to do. In contrast, Mary anoints the head and feet of Jesus days earlier in an act of devoted, humble, and sacrificial worship. In this message we contrast these two events and ask ourselves, “What is our motivation to worship?” - Mar 22, 2015A Voice In The Wilderness
A Voice In The WildernessIn our world today
, it is imperative the bride of Christ preach the Gospel with authority and with passion. In order to accomplish such a daunting task, we can learn from the life and ministry of John the Baptist. John was separated to God, empowered by the Holy Spirit, humble, and preached true repentance. - Mar 15, 2015Be Still
Be Still
In this message we look at two specific instances in the Bible where God issues the command to “Be Still.” Sometimes God commands our circumstances to be still and sometimes He commands us. Either way, we come to know God more as we experience Him in our daily lives. - Feb 15, 2015A Matter of Perspective
A Matter of Perspective
When one reads the words of Psalm 34, it is easy to assume they were penned by someone who was living a life of peace and victory. A deeper look, however, reveals that its author David was hiding in a cave running from King Saul and the Philistines. In this desperate time, David writes of continual praise, seeking God, and the faithfulness of the Lord. Join us as we uncover David's uncommon perspective during a time of struggle and rejection. - Jan 25, 2015What’s Your Source?
What’s Your Source?
In Jeremiah 2:13, the prophet compares the rejection of God by the people of Israel to them choosing a cistern over the fresh watered offered by God. For those who lived in arid regions and were not blessed with a fresh spring on their land, they were required to dig a hole in the ground and to seal the walls of the hole with lime. Water was then transported to the hole or cistern to be stored for use at a later time. Unfortunately, these crude storage containers would develop cracks over time and the water would leak out into the surrounding soil. As a result, the water would be lost and the walls would have to be sealed again and the cistern refilled.Have we, like the people of Israel, chosen to abandon our relationship with God for personal pursuits of happiness that are not eternal. Pursuits that bring temporary moments of happiness, but eventually crack and run dry.We must ask ourselves, "Are you digging cisterns or drinking directly from the spring?" - Jan 18, 2015Bought At A Price
Bought At A PriceThe Bible clearly teaches us in Romans chapter six that who we obey is who we belong to. If we serve our own selfish desires we belong to sin. If we are obedient to Christ we belong to God. Sin gives us the illusion of freedom that, when acted upon, leads to the bondage of fear, doubt, and anxiety. God guarantees us eternal life, but we must understand we were bought at a very high price; the sacrifice of Jesus. When we belong to God, we are free from our past, free to change, free to live holy, and free of the bondage caused by sin. We are not free, however, to live in rebelliousness towards God, to live selfishly, or to mistreat others.

Revive Us, Oh LordTrue revival will come to the church of God when we recognize the source from which true change flows is God’s word. This change of perspective will result in an evaluation of our priorities, a desire to live holy lives, and a renewed resolve to declare God’s truth.

ShadowsEach of us cast a shadow when standing in the sun, but when there are multiple light sources more than one shadow is cast upon the ground. When walking in the light of the Son we can easily identify who we are in Christ. When we walk in the light of circumstances, pain, or worldly opinion it becomes harder to recognize who we really are.

Is God all you have or all you need?In this message we address the difference between seeing God as "all we have" versus "all we need." There is a fundamental difference between the two and proper understanding will lead to a victorious life in Christ.
