Is there any such thing as being completely satisfied?  Not just with a particular product, but with life in general.  I believe it is possible, and we’re going to talk about it in this message, titled simply, “Satisfied.”

To be ready is to be “in a suitable state for an activity, action, or situation; to be fully prepared.”  As Christians, our mission is to partner with Jesus and be ready to carry out His mission in the world.  He said, He came to “seek and save the lost.”

While I’m convinced the greater part of being ready is wrapped up in our personal relationship with Christ, there are still ...

In every aspect of our modern day living access to a power source is essential.

As Christians today, to carry out God's mission in the world we need a strength and power that goes beyond the capacity of human nature.  We need God’s supernatural power.  No amount of effort on our part will ever be enough. God has promised that power through His Holy Spirit.

John 14:12-26; Luke 19:10; Acts 1:8

If you are a Christian today, the reason God hasn’t taken you to heaven yet, is because He still has a purpose for you here.   God’s plan is to use you to help others come to know Christ.  That is our mission.  In this episode we begin a four part series about that mission.  We’re calling the series, “Staying on Track.”  Today’s message is titled “Mi...

Real identity often refers to "authentic" identity; or who we think we really are down deep inside.  And who we are, or even think we are, determines how we live.

The same is true in our spiritual life. This week’s message, is focused on the real (even right) identity Christians should have as we craft a life that shines.

    Easter changes everything!  Easter is  the authentication of God’s remedy to humanity’s oldest dilemma.  If Easter is anything, it is at least the evidence that God believes in second chances, and offers us a fresh start if we will put our faith in the death and resurrection of Jesus.  Easter is God’s Jubilee.

    In today’s message we consider that as Christians we are entrusted with God’s seed, which He intends to use for producing spiritual transformation in the lives of others.  We can’t produce the transformation, that’s God’s work; but we can scatter the seed among our friends and neighbors by the way we live our lives and the testimony we leave with them.  Here are five observati...

    The Old Testament contains a story about a prophet who thought his assignment was an impossible mission.  And the fact of the matter is, Jonah not only thought the mission was not possible, it wasn’t even desirable.  That's the basis for today's message, Mission Impossible.

    God loves you, you are important to Him, He desires a  close personal relationship with you.  Have you experienced His love for yourself?  The answer may be yes, but it probably goes without saying, no matter how long we have followed Christ, we do not yet fully grasp the depth of God’s love for us.

    You may not realize it, but most marathoners never cross the finish line first.  In fact, for most, that’s not even the goal.  The real goal is to finish the race—to cross the finish line, period. That’s a great illustration for the Christian journey.  We are in it for the long haul; it’s not a sprint, it’s a marathon.  We are to “run with endurance the race th...

    The noun “time” can be used to refer to “an opportune or suitable moment.”  That’s the kind of reference the Scripture uses when it tells us that “when the right time came, God sent his Son, born of a woman, […] to buy freedom for us […] so that he could adopt us as his very own children” (Galatians 4:4-5 NLT). That’s the concept we are exploring whe...

    Often in our daily living, being thankful has to overcome a lot of negative circumstances.  However, maintaining an attitude of thanksgiving, even in the face of negativity, might be more beneficial than we think.
