David: A Man after God’s own Heart. 5/9/2021 1 Samuel 16:1,6-13 Sunday’s sermon is about the grace of God in the life of King David. He was known as a man with a heart for God. It is remarkable how closely our lives tend to parallel that of David. We will see this in the choosing of David by God, his empowerment for service, as well as David’s brokenness, repentance and restoration. Remembering God’s gracious dealing with David should motivate us to be obedient men and women, after God’s own heart.

Church Prayer Time this Saturday at 8:30 (and the second Saturday of most months).

Jesus Changes Everything. Easter, 4/4/2021 We consider Paul's words on the Resurrection from 1 Corinthians 15:1-11; 19-22 BELIEVE Everyone believes in SomeTHING, and if you are fortunate, you may also believe in SomeONE! What we believe in directs our every thought and every move we make for that which we believe in MOST provides the direction for ALL of Life. Come Journey with us as we look into the Event that Changed ALL of Human History and really does have the power to change even us!

March 28, Scott looked at Jonah 1:7-10, where the Desperate Sailors cast lots in order to find the guilty person on board with them. In God's Sovereignty, that "superstitious" act pointed the finger at Jonah. Although Jonah desired to simply be left alone and remain in isolation, as he continued his journey away from the LORD, Jonah was cast back into the center of attention. As followers of Christ, we are recipients of God's Un-Relenting Grace; He will not allow us to run ...from Him forever. Instead, our Heavenly Father will do whatever is necessary to re-captivate our hearts and bring us back to Him, in Repentance, Faith, and Obedience. Thankfully, the story does not end with Jonah's Catch-22 of Duplicity. We have One who fully paid the price and accomplised everything Jonah and we cannot do. Run to Jesus in repentance and Re-learn what it truly means to REST in His Grace!

This Sunday Pastor Scott Bull continues with Part 4 of Jonah, "Jonah’s Catch-22 of Duplicity..." We hope you're able to worship with us in person, or online starting at 9:56 (for the announcements).
