Oftentimes as Christians, we may get to some perceived spot or level where we feel that it may be good enough and we begin to settle in our faith walk. But, the truth is, the possibilities are endless of where we can go when Christ is leading the way and flowing through our hearts.
We began our outside services this past Sunday with a new sermon series entitled “Kingdom Parables.” Matthew 13:24-30, 36-43 has Jesus teaching on the parable of the wheat and the tares.

We wrapped up our “Life Verse” sermon series by looking at 1st Thessalonians 5:16-18…… “Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, in everything gives thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.” Truth be told, Christ may be seen in us the most when we don’t feel joyful, when we don’t want … Read more
