May 21, 2017   It’s great to be back with you this morning. I want to thank Michael for ably filling the pulpit, the Elders for allowing me to go with Samaritan’s Purse, and Samaritan’s Purse for sending me to Northern Iraq to serve the staff there. I’m deeply encouraged to tell you the SP […]

April 30, 2017   One of the most difficult concepts to grasp in the Christian faith is the person of Jesus Christ. Who was this man? The answer has been vigorously debated for 2,000 years, both outside and inside the church. The problem is, much of the time, the answers may be partially right, but […]

April 23, 2017   Most of you have heard of or even owned a red-letter edition Bible. In fact, the Bible I have in front of me is such an edition. As you likely know, a red-letter Bible has the words of Jesus in red. It’s very helpful, but they also present at least two […]

April 16, 2017   When I say the word afterlife, what comes to mind? Seems most images have a stairway, which means our thoughts of heaven come more from a song than the Bible. It doesn’t matter where I say it – in what language or culture– it produces definite ideas and images. Nirvana, Brahman, […]

April 9, 2017   On December 16, 1773, about 50 members of the Sons of Liberty, a colonial patriot group, boarded three ships anchored in Boston Harbor. Those ships, the Beaver, the Eleanor, and the Dartmouth, were carrying British tea from the East India Company. You should know, the East India Company had been doing […]

April 2, 2017   Many say they don’t believe in Christianity, they don’t believe the Bible, because it is so unbelievable. It’s just a bunch of fables/fairy tales. Seas splitting, donkeys talking, whales swallowing people, driving out demons, raising the dead, calming storms, walking on water, come on. More fundamental, think about it, that a […]

March 26, 2017   It’s great to be back with you this morning. Tana and I had a great time away, but we’re delighted to be back. I’m particularly thankful for Michael, who did a fantastic job the last three Sundays, preaching three great sermons on the Throne of God. I know this, because not […]

February 26, 2017   If you could ask for anything right now, what would it be? See, that’s your problem. You don’t think big enough. Michael told me about yet another article from the Babylon Bee. The article was entitled, Heaven Sitting on Massive Stockpile of Gulfstream Jets for Believers to Claim. Apparently, the reporter […]

February 19, 2017   Last Sunday was our first ever Family Worship Sunday. We had lots of elementary age children and youth with us – in fact, it was actually a pretty high attendance Sunday. I was encouraged – hope you were. I preached a sermon with lots of pictures – I trust that helped […]

February 12, 2017   I want to welcome you this morning to our very first Family Worship Sunday. If you’re a guest today, or you just didn’t read my very long letter I sent a week ago, let me briefly explain what Family Worship Sundays are. We believe there is great benefit for families to […]
