AGAINST THE GRAIN

As Christians, we are not called to go with the flow of the status quo. Jesus doesn’t tell us to live our lives as followers of the world. Instead, our lives are meant to cut against the grain, to right the wrongs, bring justice to the marginalized, and love our neighbors as ourselves. Join me […]

ROOTED

What does it mean to be rooted in Christ? Let’s step into the question and see what Jeremiah 17:7-8 has to say about it. But are our minds open to the understanding that once we are rooted in Christ, this world is no longer our home?

I AM WHAT I AM

Who am I? We all ask ourselves that question at times, generally when we reach a crossroads in our lives that require us to so some self-examination. Let’s look at what Paul has to say about this in his first letter to the church in Corinth.

A SAMARITAN STORY

Let’s take another look at the story of The Good Samaritan. It’s so much more than a story about doing good deeds or being a good neighbor. How is it related to our relationship with Jesus Christ?

THE WATCHMAN

Let’s talk about what it means to be a watchman in a chaotic world. What does God expect from us as watchman for his children? We live in a world where the truth often gets stretched and we need Jesus to be our filter as we step into our roles as watch people.

YOU SEE ME

We all want to be seen. It is vital for our mental and spiritual health. It is our obligation to see people through the eyes of Christ and let them know that they are important to their Creator. Let’s drill down into that with this message entitled “You See Me.”

LIGHT OF HOPE

Epiphany is upon us as we ponder the wise men and women, each seeking their star to follow. Our hope is in the light from our Heavenly Father brought to us through his son Jesus Christ.

WINGS

Let’s talk about getting stuck in our Christian growth and how to get unstuck. We’re going to look at Isaiah 40:31 and for some new encouragement.

Return to Me

“Return to Me” is the message reiterated throughout the Bible. It is a personal message to God’s children and it is a message that grows louder the farther we stray from him. He loves us so much that he provided a way through his son for us always to find our way back.

RIVERS OF JUSTICE

Let’s talk about justice for a few minutes as we engage with this message called: Rivers of Justice. Amos was a wise prophet constantly seeking justice for the less fortunate, a true champian of the underdog. Jesus fought for the underdog as well. How do we example this in our daily lives?

BLOWN BY THE WIND

“Blown By the Wind.” That usually signifies to us that someone is flighty, a free spirit. And, unfortunately, we often have a negative resonse to such people. But maybe it might surprise you that God talks about this; about being blown by the spirit, given to listening to his voice above our own. Join me […]

HIDDEN PATHS

Sometimes we feel that our choices are limited, and all the options available are not aligned with our core beliefs. That is often true because of the distractions of the world. If we take the time, we will discover that God will always reveal a path that is the right path, even if it is […]

RED LETTER CHRISTIANITY

Red Letter Christianity

What do we mean by “Red Letter Christianity,” and why is it important to us. Join me as we explore this concept and why we often find the teachings of Jesus to be radical and contrary to human nature. My prayer is that you always find comfort and guidance in the words of Jesus Christ.

A NEW SONG

Let’s talk about what it means to sing “A New Song.” The scripture passage for this message comes from Psalm 40:1-3. Join me as we explore what David means when he says “He put a new song in my mouth.”

THE COST OF PRIDE

Probably the hardest thing to deal with in our Christian walk is our own pride. Our default is not humility. Humility has to be learned and developed. Join me now in about message about dealing with the Cost of Pride as we look at the Tower of Babel.

CONVERSATIONS… THAT NEVER HAPPENED

“Conversations… That Never Happened.” Conversations that we might find in our halls of leadership today where people surround themselves with those who will make them look good, where people are hired and fired based on optics. Every time I hear one of these messages, I just want to shout, “Just like Jesus?” Jesus embraced the […]

PENTECOST

What is Pentecost and why do we celebrate it? Is more than just the birthday of the Christian Church? Did the celebration of Pentecost exist before Peter stepped onto that balcony in Jerusalem to preach to thousands of people? How do we engage with the tongues of fire and the speaking in different languages? All […]

BETTER TOGETHER

What are we talking about when we say that we are “Better Together”? Where do we find biblical truth in that and how can our lives reflect this principal?

THE SHIFT IN FATHERHOOD

In a world of chaos and turmoil, just what does it mean to be a father today? Traditional roles seem to have shifted. How do we find our way through the confusion?

NEW WINESKINS

What is Christ talking about when he explains no one puts new wine in old wine skins? How do we become new in Christ so that we can accept the wine he offers>
