We live in an age of convenience here in the United States.  Convenience is often associated with getting something faster, quicker.  One major area linked to convenience in many people's lives is the food we eat.  Many Americans want their food and meals to be quick and with as little effort as possible.  With the busy lifestyle so many live, this turns ...

Act 1: 6-11, 1 Thessalonians 4: 13-17

Today, we remember and celebrate the beginning of the greatest gift God has ever given the human race!

The Gift of salvation, payment for sin, and resurrection to life by the gift of His Son Jesus Christ

Have you opened the gift?

Do you believe and trust in this gift enough to have it lead your life?

But this is just ...

Palm Sunday celebrates the day Jesus rides into Jerusalem on a donkey colt (a young donkey that has never been ridden on), and the people celebrate Jesus's arrival.

Jesus rides in as a hero, but just days later, they are demanding he be crucified because Jesus did not meet the Jews' expectations and wants.

The battle the people thought needed to be fought by Jesus was not the battle that NEEDED to be fought and WON! The people want...

Today’s Message is based out of Revelations chapters 2 & 3

What would Jesus say if you asked him if there is anything you have in your life that needs to be overcome that is messing with your walk with God?

As we live our daily lives, what we do just seems to occur and fall in place. Like walking through the forest and woods, checking out one tree or another, this plant, this rock, this old piece of junk or something. You are g...

John 13:12-15  So when He had washed their feet, taken His garments, and sat down again, He said to them, "Do you know what I have done to you?  (13)  You call Me Teacher and Lord, and you say well, for so I am.  (14)  If I then, your Lord and Teacher, have washed your feet, you also ought to wash one another's feet.  (15)  For I have given you an example, that you should do as I have done to you.

2Corinthians 5:20  Now then, we ar...

John 14: 15-31

• Why would Jesus say we would be orphaned without the Holy Spirit?
• Why does the world not see the truth?
• How is your love for Christ shown?
• How critical is it to not only believe who Jesus is, but to do His commandments?
• What would you tell a person who states they believe Jesus is the Messiah but chooses not to live according to the Kingdom of God that Jesus taught and preached?

The message today is out of Luke 17:20-37

· The Jews hoped God would send a messiah to free them from Roman occupation. They assumed this person would be an outwardly powerful, influential leader.

· They believed a visible manifestation of God’s power would be seen through this Messiah as he frees the Jews from Roman rule.

· But what did Jesus tell them about the Kingdom?

· How fast would it occur when Jesus, the real Messiah, come...

Jesus knows He will be on His way to death on the cross in several hours, and after the meal, He shares this picture of the vine and branches with His apostles.

· John 15:1-12

· John 14:6

· John 7:38

In this clear example, Jesus explains that the relationship between God the Father and man is more than written laws and religion. Jesus is the one and only “True Vine” in His Father’s vineyard, and they are now the branches of that tr...

Our sincere intentions as believers are to obey the Lord’s command and love others as He loves you and me. Unfortunately, as we travel life in this present world, the “self” can rise up, and before we know it, we are loving others as the world does, not how God intended love to operate in our lives.

Today’s message contains several scriptures.  Referencing God’s Word is clear and more powerful than any preacher’s opinion and though...

Pastor John Napoli speaks about how "leaven" can sneak into Christianaty. Much like the Pharisees, us Christians can get so focused on the "do's and don'ts" and miss the big picture of what Jesus preached. Do we put rules in front of love and forgiveness for our brothers and sisters?

Pastor John Napoli speaks on prayer and outcomes. He shows us that prayer is communication with God, not asking Him to fulfill our "wish-lists". He also points out that often times when things go good for us we tend to think it was our own doing, not God's hand in it. We need to understand the difference and thank God.
