Noah was a righteous man living in an unrighteous generation. He was given instructions from God to do something that had never been done before, but would be necessary if he was to save himself and his family. Noah obeyed the Lord and was vindicated. Where is such faith and righteousness today? It is certainly … [Read more…]
The Bible records only 2 people who went to heaven without dying: Elijah and Enoch. For Enoch, his “claim to fame” was that he walked with God and that he ‘pleased’ God. What does it mean to please God? How do we do that? Why not join us this Sunday at 10:45 am as we … [Read more…]
When we bring our offerings to God, it takes faith to give an offering that is costly and requires something that is our very best. Abel did that with his offering to God, and Cain, his brother, clearly did not. What was the difference between the offerings of these 2 brothers and why was Abel’s … [Read more…]
It’s hard to get a subject more foundational in our walk with God than the subject of “faith.” It is essential in the process of getting into a relationship with God (Ephesians 2:8-9) and it is impossible to please God without it (Hebrews 11:6).

We can go through difficulties and dry spells in our Christian walk, and sometimes those experiences can leave us wondering if it’s worth it to keep serving the Lord. The message today challenges that notion and gives reasons why we should “keep on keepin’ on” in our devotion to God. Join us at the 10:45 … [Read more…]
The only place in all of Scripture where it is okay to put God to the test is found in today’s text from Malachi 3:6-12. We may test God in the tithe, the first tenth of all our giving to Him. The Lord, for His part, promises outrageous blessing to us IF we will be … [Read more…]
Testing is difficult and testing hurts, but boy, does it reap the results! God’s people needed to go through the intense heat of God’s refining fire in order to get to being the people He called them to be. It is no different for us today. We need to the furnace to burn off the … [Read more…]
