Breaking Free Into Victory
Where We’ve Been Today we conclude our series called “Anxious for Nothing,” and like a teacher at the end of a school year, I’m going to give you a bit of review. To be honest, some of today’s message may feel a bit repetitive to those who have been here every week for this series. Most of the time I don’t expect you to commit to memory everything I say in a message. I want you to put it into…
Asking For Help
Our Problem with Independence and Privacy Do you know what one of my greatest fears is? It’s having some sort of accident or disease that leaves me completely dependent on other people. I hope this doesn’t offend anyone, but I really don’t want to ever be in a condition for an extended period of time where people have to feed me, help me go to the bathroom, get dressed, blow my nose, wipe my mouth – you get the picture.…

Storytime with Jesus: The Ten Virgins

Storytime with Jesus: The Great Banquet
Too often, Christians only invite people like them, or maybe people who are already Christians but who aren’t currently attending church or who are looking for a new church. But they make the safe invite. They invite “church folks”. They don’t think the guy covered with tattoos or the woman who cusses like a sailor would be interested in Jesus.
