Another outdoor service!

We are looking forward to another outdoor service this Sunday, August 30! We hope you will come join us. It is weather dependent; if there is a risk of rain we will move things indoors.

I Disagree!

One of the biggest problems I observe in the news today that drains the hope out of seeing meaningful, productive changes in public policy and opinion is that as a society we have become extremely polarized, and while we have much disagreement, we have little quality debate and only small amounts of polite, meaningful dialogue.…

Leading

This week we continue talking about the issue of leadership. This message together with last week’s is an addendum, not just to the Ephesians 5 passage about a husband's leadership, but to Ephesians 6:1-4 where it gives instruction to parents, especially fathers, to be leading their children. It is also a helpful appendix to Ephesians…

Becoming the Leader God Intended

What does it take to be a leader? More importantly, what does it take to be a good leader? Today we will explore that question as we continue our study of Ephesians 5. We saw last week that husbands have 2 main commands given by God in this passage. The first, which we studied last…

Adding to this tragedy are the many husbands and wives who claim to be following God's plan for…

God’s Design for Family

In Paul's day, the institutions of marriage and family were in shambles. Faithfulness to a spouse was becoming a novelty. It didn't seem to matter if you were a Jew, Greek, or Roman, you had ways to jettison any marital commitment you may have made. Even the idea of what a family consisted of was…

Submission

Do you hate that word? What does it mean in Ephesians 5 when God says that we are to be "submitting to one another in the fear of Christ."? What does it mean in the next verse when it says, "Wives, submit to your husbands as to the Lord"? What does submission to the Lord…

The Uncertainties of Life

Life is filled with many anxious moments....especially in 2020. However, it is incredibly reassuring to know God watches over the affairs of our lives. Psalm 121--a song sung by the Israelites when they traveled to Jerusalem--reminds us that God watches over us during times of uncertainty. Come on out or log on Sunday morning to…
