Sunday Morning services
The preacher draws from Psalm 119 to highlight humanity’s deep need for divine wisdom amid life’s choices and trials. He urges believers to pant after God’s Word, ask in faith as James instructs, and trust the Lord to order their steps rather than relying on human understanding. The message closes with a prayer for wisdom in practical areas like health, family, and finances.
The preacher opens with James 1:17-20 and teaches that God the Father is the unchanging source of every good and perfect gift. He urges believers to respond to trials with swiftness to hear, slowness to speak, and slowness to wrath so that God’s righteous purposes are not hindered by human anger. The message closes with a prayer of thanksgiving for the Father’s consistent goodness and provision.
The preacher explores the humanity of Christ by examining his earthly life, ascension, and acceptance by the Father as described in Scripture. He emphasizes that Christ’s example of humility, obedience, and doing God’s will is attainable for believers because Jesus was made fully man. The message concludes with a call to willful action empowered by the Holy Spirit to follow that example.
The preacher contrasts new age influences infiltrating churches with the unchanging truth of Scripture, focusing on the reality of a literal, eternal hell. He warns against reinterpreting or apologizing for hell to accommodate culture and urges believers to stand firmly on God’s Word. The message calls the church to speak truth in love and share the gospel without compromise.
The preacher contrasts New Age teachings with the gospel by examining John the Baptist’s example of dependence on God, submission to Christ, and faithful stewardship of ministry. He emphasizes that salvation comes through faith in Christ’s finished work rather than human effort or self-enlightenment, urging believers to decrease so that Christ may increase. The message calls Christians to reject self-focused spirituality and live in humble obedience to the Lord.
The preacher contrasts the New Age view of an impersonal, pantheistic God with the biblical portrayal of a personal, transcendent yet immanent Creator from Jeremiah 23. He traces the movement’s roots and warns of its infiltration into churches through shared vocabulary that distorts core gospel truths. The message calls believers to reject hybrid thinking and embrace God’s sovereignty revealed in Scripture.
The preacher delivers a concluding message in the faith series from 1 John 5, highlighting how faith produces spiritual birth, familial love among believers, and victory over the world. He stresses that believers overcome through humble dependence on Christ rather than self-effort, applying this truth to thoughts, words, actions, family, church, and outreach. The preacher closes with a call to walk by faith and claim the victory provided by the indwelling Christ.

The preacher emphasizes the gratitude and sacrificial love that godly mothers exhibit, portraying them as models of faith and service to their families and to God. The message also encourages appreciation for mothers and recognition of their invaluable role in our lives, regardless of personal circumstances.
In this sermon, the preacher emphasizes the importance of fellowship in strengthening faith, drawing from Romans 1:7 and other scriptures. The preacher highlights how mutual faith and encouragement among believers, as exemplified by Paul’s longing to visit the Romans, can build up the body of Christ. Through personal anecdotes and biblical references, the message underscores the need to consider and support one another in love and good works.
In this sermon, the preacher explores how faith transforms the way believers perceive life, focusing on 2 Corinthians 5:1 and the concept of viewing temporal struggles through the lens of eternity.

This message encourages a perspective rooted in God’s Word, fostering a desire for eternal life over temporary worldly concerns.
