Parent Child Relationships

This sermon is to encourage Dads to do well and to encourage children to have good relationships with their parents. Proverbs 17:6 shows us three generations, grandparents, parents and grandchildren, a picture of what God would like to see in families. Even in the beginning of time we see broken relationships between fathers and sons;... Read More

Virtues for Church Life

Ephesians 3 and 4 both contain passages that talk about growing into the “fullness” of God. Ephesians 4:2,3 names elements that are important for that growth to happen — lowliness, gentleness, and longsuffering.

Looking Back and Looking Forward

Most of us probably spend some time looking back, whether with negative feelings or positive feelings.
