New Church Location!

Well, God did it again. He decided that we had been at our old building long enough. We lasted a whole 18 months there. After outgrowing the facility rather quickly, God quickly opens the doors to a new place for us to worship. It has been amazing so far to say the least. Young andContinue reading “New Church Location!”

We Are Moving

We had a great Easter Sunday. 2 Services, 3 Baptisms, and egg hunt for the littles. I wasn’t sure that a 9 am service would be well attended when we started back in January, but God knew what He was doing as always. Our 9 am service is populating very well. Since the beginning ofContinue reading “We Are Moving”

Church Planting

“Follow Jesus on the journey he has planned for you, and invite your people along.” “When God called me to plant a church, he intended for me to go on a journey with him.

Do You Really Love People?

There is no way that Christians can be salt and light apart from love. We are to obey the command to love God first and allow that same unconditional love to flow from our lives onto others.

“You know who pays the bills at the church.”

As I catching up on emails this morning, Thom Rainer had this to say this morning. Please, as a church member that gives financially to your church, be very cautious about saying something like this statement. Please, don’t say it because it truly is a way of saying this is my church, and not soContinue reading ““You know who pays the bills at the church.””

No Other Gospel

Well, well, when it comes to Jesus as the only way, the world comes unglued. Everyone protests and says there couldn’t be just one way to God. What about those devout ________ over there? How can they be wrong, if they truly believe it? Facts are facts. The real fact of the matter is theContinue reading “No Other Gospel”
