Never Never Never - Guest Speaker Pastor Jeremiah Sims
Guest Speaker Pastor Jeremiah Sims shares lessons from the life of Joseph son of Jacob. God will Never Never Never leave us alone and God is in the pits with us. We don't have to be anxious for anything, we know the Prince of Peace.
Peace Has Come - Prince of Peace Series
Even Atheists and Agnostics celebrate Christmas each year. They set up trees, give gifts, gather with family, and some even set up nativity sets! Baby Jesus in the manger is cute, cuddly, and manageable. Although He came as a baby, He didn't stay a baby. One day He will return to establish His Kingdom, to which all are invited to join.

Peace Has Come - Prince of Peace Christmas Series
Many parents will tell their kids this Christmas that "it's not about the gifts." That's only partially true. Christmas is not about the billions of dollars spent at malls and on candy canes, but it is about one gift in particular: the gift of God's Son. Jesus creates peace between God and man, but like any gift, it's only yours if you receive it.

Emergency Response System - In Our Day Series
Don't expect something from someone if you haven't told them you expect it. Unvoiced expectations aren't fair. Similarly, it's unrealistic to expect something from God that you rarely - if ever - ask for. Our need for revival is glaring and blatant, which means that our prayers for revival should be faith-filled and persistent. God moves when His people pray.

This Is An Emergency - In Our Day Series
Like a fire alarm or pepper spray, the phrase, "This is an emergency!" is reserved for only extreme circumstances. However, as we take inventory of our current spiritual state (personally and nationally), we are clearly in a state of emergency. God's intervention requires that we own up to what we've done and ask Him to get us back on track.

The End... Or Is It?
Obituary, funeral, afterlife - all those words describe your future. The reality is that just like we were all born, we will all die. Like Elijah & Elisha, with our final dying breaths, we should be speaking in faith and leaving a legacy of faith that will outlast our time on earth. The end of your life on earth doesn’t have to be the end of the impact your life will have.
