Spiritual Supplements

April 12, 2015 - Now that we have experienced Jesus death and resurrection we are going to be starting up the second installment of Peter and his letters to a scattered church.  Let's allow Peter to take us on a spiritual journey to combat false doctrine and teachings that were taking the focus away from Jesus and His sacrifice and making it more about our personal lifestyle. Peter is going to proclaim that we are "partakers with Christ."  This means we get to live with His divine character and attributes.  What a way to live!

Life After Death, "But God"

April 5, 2015 - Easter Sunday brings "A RISEN SAVIOR!"  This week we walk through God's wonderful gift of Grace, JESUS!  We are going to focus on two words, "BUT GOD."  We were lost in our sin, "BUT GOD."  We were dead to our sin, "BUT GOD," We were bound in chains, "BUT GOD."  "BUT GOD," being rich in mercy, made us ALIVE together with CHRIST.

Praise Him! Turn Your Backs on Him!

March 29, 2015 - This Palm Sunday, we reflect on our commitment to Christ. Is our commitment and love for Christ conditional or unconditional? Do we spread our cloaks for Him daily or only when it is convenient? If we truly believe that “to Him be glory forever,” then our actions must continually express that belief. Palm Sunday is an example of the behavior and attitude God’s followers are to express on a daily basis, not once a year or special occasions. Are we living Palm Sunday once a year or whenever it is convenient? Blessed be His glorious name forever; may the whole earth be filled with His glory! Amen and Amen!

 

Realism and How to Shepherd the Flock

March 22, 2015 - This Sunday we will be wrapping up our TRANSFORM-US series through 1 Peter.  Peter ends this book with a hefty realism for us all to digest that we are ALL going to suffer for the sake of Christ. The biggest question this Sunday is, “Are you ashamed of the Gospel?”  Are you able to confidently share about Jesus no matter the raised eyebrow, the booing crowd, or the flying rock?  Peter wants us as Christ Followers not to be shocked by peoples responses.  The good news of Christ is He gives us a light to shine.  Is yours under a basket? a small flicker? or on a stand on a hill? In the end by the power of God’s grace can he restore and strengthen you.  To him be the dominion forever and ever. AMEN
