Bible Study: Philippians Ep.2, Special Guest Dr. Douglas Frank
Join us as we have a special guest Bible teacher, Dr. Douglas Frank. We will explore Philippians Chapter 2. We will look at how the Apostle Paul describes Christ's humilty and how we are to follow his example, and as a result we become lights unto the world.
Philippians 2:14-15
Do all things without grumbling or disputing, that you may be blameless and innocent, children of God without blemish in the midst of a crooked and twisted generation, among whom you shine as lights in the world.

Father's Day Service
Knowing our Father in Heaven's heart for you is essential in the Christian life. Without it we will become bitter, hateful, and legalistic. Also, without it we will become apathetic and weak. A father is the one in the family that gives children an identity and an inheritance. Without these things men and women do not mature and act out of their disorders and shortcommings instead of rising to the occasion. Love and strength are the enduring qualities of a dad. Join us as we have Spirit-filled worship, listen to a great message of hope, and bless any father in the house to be empowered.

Bible Study: Philippians Ep.1
The book of Philippians was written because of the division of the church in the region. Roman citizenship has caused some people within the city and within the church to treat non-citizens as second class people. Coupled with the persecution from the Roman government against the Christians Paul writes this inspired letter to encourage the church to stand strong instead of giving up.
Philippians 1:27-28
hatever happens, conduct yourselves in a manner worthy of the gospel of Christ. Then, whether I come and see you or only hear about you in my absence, I will know that you stand firm in the one Spirit, striving together as one for the faith of the gospel without being frightened in any way by those who oppose you. This is a sign to them that they will be destroyed, but that you will be saved—and that by God.

Bible Study: Ephesians Ep. 5
Written by Paul in prison because of his efforts in expanding the Gospel Of The Kingdom. He addresses the church he planted in the most religious city in the Grecco-Roman world. He makes clear the teaching of Jesus Christ that we are saved not because of the religous work that we do, but by the grace of God through our faith.
We cannot overstate this because this is the foundation for spritiual gifts, the structure of the church, and how we stand in spiritual warfare. Outside of Jesus' own teachings this book is the core of what it means to be a Christian. Paul's instructions are clear. These directives will allow you to live victorious in a chaotic world!
Ephesians 6:18
And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people.

Church Service: The Red Sea Moment
Hebrews 11:26-29
He considered the reproach of Christ greater wealth than the treasures of Egypt, for he was looking to the reward. By faith he left Egypt, not being afraid of the anger of the king, for he endured as seeing him who is invisible. By faith he kept the Passover and sprinkled the blood, so that the Destroyer of the firstborn might not touch them.
By faith the people crossed the Red Sea as on dry land, but the Egyptians, when they attempted to do the same, were drowned.

So then you are no longer strangers and aliens, but you are fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God, built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus himself being the cornerstone, in whom the whole structure, being joined together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord. In him you also are being built together into a dwelling place for God by the Spirit.

Church Service: Destined To Be Loved
After the passing of Valentine's Day, the populace is talk about love. The word "Love" isn't what we think it is. We use it so causally it has lost it's meaning. Let's look at what the word of God says about it. Since love is not just an attribute of God but actually who he is, this is an essential teaching for every Christian. Let us make sure we get this right!
1 John 4:7-8
Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God. Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love.

Bible Study: Galatians Ep. 3
Freedom and Fruits
The epitsle of Galatians is very important. It corrects heresy, reconciles the Old Testament to the New Testament, and explains God's plan of redemption. In the church of Galatia there was an equal amount of Jews coming to faith and Christian Gentiles. There were many arguements between the two groups. The Apostle Paul masterfully brings the two groups together through scripture. This is an excellent book that teaches us how to live with people that disagree. There is a miriad of amazing nuggets of truth in this epistle.
Galatians 5:1
It is for freedom that Christ has set us free. Stand firm, then, and do not let yourselves be burdened again by a yoke of slavery.

Church Service: Baptism Sunday
Matthew 3:14-16
But John tried to deter him, saying, “I need to be baptized by you, and do you come to me?”Jesus replied, “Let it be so now; it is proper for us to do this to fulfill all righteousness.” Then John consented. As soon as Jesus was baptized, he went up out of the water. At that moment heaven was opened, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and alighting on him.

So in Christ Jesus you are all children of God through faith, for all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ. There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus. If you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.

Church Service: The 7 Mountain Mandate
We revisit the 7 Mountain Mandate every year. The reason? Because it is important we get our bearings right when it comes to what the Christian life is all about. A Christian's end goal is not ot get to heaven. That becomes a reality when a person becomes a child of God. A Christian's end goal is that the kingdoms of this world become the Kingdom of our God. This is a vast departure from what has been taught at church for the past 100 years. Come and learn how this can drastically change everything in one generation.
Isaiah 2:2
In the last days the mountain of the LORD’s temple will be established as the highest of the mountains; it will be exalted above the hills, and all nations will stream to it.

Church Service: Blessed Or Cursed?
The year of our Lord 2024 is upon us. Which brings us to several questions. Is everything that happens in our society set in stone? Does God's plan waver or is it decreed forever? Do our actions affect what happens to our nation or is it all part of God's plan regardless of what we do? Let's take a look at what scriptures says and let us believe Jesus is still on the throne.
Isaiah 43:19
Behold, I am doing a new thing; now it springs forth, do you not perceive it? I will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert.

Bible Study: The Rejected Apostle Part 6 12/31/2023
Finishing The Book of 2 Corinthians
2 Corinthians is the 4th letter Paul wrote to the church in Corinth. It is a teaching on the church that rejected his apostleship. In it Paul shows the cosmopolitan church that she is be saved but she has not gone through transformation yet. In this section we will find Paul defending his ministry and speaking out against false prophets! It will be an interesting study.
2 Corinthians 12:9
But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me.
