8/2/20 Ephesians 3:14-21 “You Can Have Power Beyond Belief!” When I was growing up, we had very few things that ran on batteries. The things that did would only run for little while as the batteries weren’t that good. Transistors were just becoming popular so then...
7/19/20 Mark 6:30-44, 52-56 “Be in the Midst of Jesus!” I have a confession to make today. I’m a man. There it is. I do things like men do because that is the way we are made. Unfortunately, one of these things is that I think...
7/12/20 Mark 6:14-29 “Saving Face or Saving Grace!” Some of you may already know this but I am a pretty strange guy. I am one of these people who reads a story for the sake of the story. I have read hundreds of books in my...

June 14, 2020 2 Corinthians 5:6-17 “Are You Happy with What You Have?” I remember when I used to be like everyone else and was sitting in the pew every Sunday morning. There would be times when I would wonder at the outset how the pastor...
6/7/20 Luke 1:39-56 “God Always Keeps His Promises!” Some of you may have realized by now that I really stress having a prayer life. I don’t think that there is anything more important to do than to pray. Probably the main reason I say this is...
5/31/20 John 15:26-16:15 “Let’s Enjoy God!” Last week I mentioned something about the mystery of the Trinity and how I wasn’t going to try to explain it. I’m still not going to try to explain it except to say that if we didn’t have the Holy...
5/24/20 John 17:6-19 “You Need Prayer as Much as Oxygen!” I love this weekend because it is the unofficial 1st Sunday of the summer. I know that the weather has not been the best this spring but I always feel after this weekend that we are...
