June 27, 2021 Galatians 5:1, 13-25 “You Have to Ask!” In this country we banter the word freedom around so much that it really doesn’t have much meaning. Let me give you a few examples. You say that you can go to this place and they...
6/20/21 Luke 8:26-39 “When Good Becomes Evil!” When I first started being a pastor 15 years ago, I had very little experience in most parts of ministry. I have held onto the Lord’s hand many times as I have stumbled my way through a series of...
6/13/21 Romans 5:1-5 “From Suffering to a Better Life!” I have been reading a book about the early history of this country from a Christian perspective. I read that one of the reasons the Jamestown settlement failed was they lacked God in their lives and community. ...

5/9/21 John 14:23-29 “You Can Sleep When the Wind Blows!” Welcome all on this Mother’s Day. There have been many things said about this day and how we should celebrate it or how we shouldn’t celebrate it. It wouldn’t surprise me at all if there was...
5/2/21 Rev. 21:1-6 “We Are Going to Paradise” Well, here I am back in Revelation again after just telling you that I don’t go there very often. But I’m here again because I love to talk about how great eternal life will be. I wanted to...
4/25/21 John 21:1-19 “Feed My Sheep” One of the things that I really miss about being a full-time pastor is working with the young people. Oh, I miss just about everything about being a pastor but working with the younger set was always fun and a...
