3 Things From the Empty Tomb

The Empty Tomb from Luke 24:5 is the start of this Ressurection Sunday. The three things we need to reap from this morning:
1.) The empty tomb speaks of the authority of Christ
2.) The empty tomb speaks of the eternality of Christ
3.) The empty tomb speaks to the love of Christ.
 
Join us on this short early morning message from Brother Paul Grice.

God's Perfect Solution

On this Good Friday evening Denny Allen opens God's word in a factual and pointed way to show us how amazing Christ's death truly was. While we may think we understand all there is to it...we are wrong, God's word always has more than we can know.
 
Heebrews 10 is the reference Denny's jumps off from...join us!
 
REMEMBER...SUNDAY'S COMING!

Galatians Lesson #20 -- "Spiritual Living"

Galatians 5:26 ~ 6:6 is todays text. One of the greatest challenges we (yes! you and I) will ever facee is extending grace and restoration to the brother who is struggling.  What drives us to not give that what God has commanded us? Pastor Dan Scarberry lays an easy understanding of why we resist giving what each of us richly desire to receive. 
Join us today as we explore the Word of God together. Pointing Lives to Jesus Christ is more than a motto or slogan, it is our only mission.

Galatians Lesson #19 -- "Keeping in Step With the Spirit"

The contrast between being flesh controlled and Spirit led is more than following a list of do's and don'ts. It is a continual, living battle between the desires of the flesh and the power of the Spirit. Verse #24 is the key to the battle: Only those in Christ can find true victory over the desires of the flesh through the power of the Spirit.
Todays text is Galatians 5:16 ~ 26 with other verses being referenced in to make a clear point of the throroughness of Scripture.

Galatians Lesson #18 -- "The Struggle is Real!"

Galatians 5:126 ~ 18 gives us clear proof that the stuggle is real. Furthermore, the struggle is indeed winable, but only if we yield to the leading and direction of the Holy Spirit. Pastor Dan also points us back to the 7th chapter of Romans to help us understand how all of Scripture fits together in a way that only a Holy and eternal God could have accomplished.

Galatians Lesson #17 -- "Using Freedom Wisely to Serve"

Galatians 5:13 ~ 15 is todays text: How we use our freedom in Christ is the greatest of issues facing the church today. Pastor Dan not only confronts the issue, but he grabs it and brings it to the very forefront of our thinking. How we love each other is by serving each other...serving each other in the love of Christ.
 
 

Galatians Lesson #16 -- "Using Our Freedom Wisely"

Pastor Dan continues his exposition of the book of Galatians with this strong admonition from the 5th chapter. Using our freedom wisely is not a license to live in liberty nor is it reason to allow false doctrine in to your life (or the church). Verse 9 has warning about a small amount of leaven and how even the smallest amount of untruth polutes thoroughly.
As you listen through thismessage Pastor Dan will reference several verses (Romans 6:17; 1 Peter 1:22; Deut. 23:1 and 1 Cor. 1: 18, 21~23). We would recommend that you take opportunity to read long with him as he references these passages.

Galatians Lesson #15 -- "What Really Counts?"

Galatians paints a chrystal clear picture of What Really Counts and some of us may find we have it wrong. During this week of terrible events, we realize that God's word speaks straight to our heart and to the issue of where our focus should be.
Follow along as we work through the 15th installment from the book of Galatians. This morning we will be looking in to chapter 5 verses 1 through 6.

Galatians Lesson #14 -- "Two Mothers, Two Sons, Two Covenants"

When we accept Christ, we free ourselves from being sons of slavery. We become sons of freedom instead.
