Four centuries before the birth of Jesus, God raised up a leader with a clarion call to action-- to unify, to assume a posture of readiness for usefulness, and to accomplish 'this good work' together.  Do you hear that call today to be used to advance the kingdom of God?  If you listen to the message, we believe that you will!

Jesus promised us power when we received the baptism of the Holy Spirit, but what is the purpose of the power?  Join us as Dr. Jackson surveys the operation of the Holy Spirit in the life of the believer, and provides Biblical and practical instruction for how to receive this magnificent gift of new birth in Christ!

In the vast history of the universe, only One is truly worthy to stand in judgment-- and that righteous Lion of Judah became the Lamb of God, slain for our sin.  One day, all heaven, earth, and hell will join in a mighty chorus to give Him praise.  But you and I can participate in His new covenant, and start the worship song right now-- "He is worthy!"

When confronted with the announcement of God's plan for working in her, Mary gave the response that we should all emulate-- Yes!  In this exploration of a scene from the Christmas story, Dr. Jackson gives us two key tests for knowing God is indeed speaking to us, and encourages us to yield fully to the call of the Lord.

Two millennia ago, the advent of a King demonstrated God's faithfulness in keeping His promises to His covenant people-- and altered forever the lives of all who encountered Him.  Through the lens of the story of a faithful servant, Dr. Jackson contemplates how we, too, are waiting for our coming King, and anticipates that we will see God's promises fulfilled in Christ when He comes again.

Communion is a memorial of a past sacrifice.  But it's also a signpost of a future triumph-- the return of our King in glory and power.  As we partake of the body and blood of Jesus through His grace, we pledge ourselves to be royal representatives of His coming reign.  It begins in us, right here and now, because of what He did then and there on Golgotha.

Only a fool would deny the existence of spiritual darkness.  But evil is not locked in some kind of stalemate with good-- our God has come to light the world with His truth and His love, and it's actually not even a fair fight.  The Captain of our salvation is unstoppable!

In the middle of a petition for restoration, the faithful father stopped the wayward son in his tracks, in effect, saying, "Hold it right there!"  Find out what caused the interruption and started the party, as Pastor Ellingsworth shares this inspiring message from Luke 15.

La ingratitud es un pecado que condimenta toda nuestra vida con condenacion or derecho, pero la accion de gracias llena nuestro corazon de aprecio po el amor de Dios.

Ingratitude is a sin that flavors our whole life with condemnation or entitlement, and both of those states limit our appreciation of God's goodness.  But thanksgiving fills our heart with the knowledge of God's gracious love and providence. Let's don't fall victim to the ravages of the silent sin!
