The default position of a person’s heart is set to selfishness. From childhood and on, we tend to exhibit the “mine” mentality. In our Scripture lessons today, we learn that setting our hearts on things that do not last is foolhardy. Instead, we have a greater treasure in Christ.

July 27, 2022 - Isaiah 44 is, in my mind, one of the funniest chapters in Scripture. God lays out just how absurd it is for people to worship created things instead of the Creator of all things. If you’re in control of the god you worship, it ain’t the real God.

This week, we welcome Pastor Jack Schneider who will share a message on the importance of talking with Jesus. Rather than talking WITH others, many people are busy talking TO or even AT them. We will focus on what it means to Talk With Jesus and receive the blessings He promises to us.

July 20, 2022 - We’re exploring just the first few verses from Psalm 25, and packed away in these short verses is a great Gospel message of God’s power, His love, and the salvation He gives to us in Jesus Christ.

This week, we welcome Pastor Russ Wiese who will share a message on the importance of resting in Jesus and trusting in His Word.

As we continue to look at Joshua 10, we read about kings hiding in a cave. Oddly enough, it’s a common occurrence. David hid in a cave to escape Saul. These Amorite kings hid in a cave in a vain attempt to escape from Joshua. Jesus went into a cave (tomb), not to escape anything, but to defeat death itself.

In the parable of the Good Samaritan, Jesus gives an example of being a good neighbor those around us. More than that, He shows us that eternal life is not something we earn, but something that is given freely to us.

July 6, 2022 - In Joshua 10, the sun stands still... but as amazing as that is, it's not the most incredible thing that happens in this chapter. Instead, we see God "heeding" the voice of a man.

God has called us into His harvest field, sharing the Good News of Christ with those in our homes and communities. This is certainly a great responsibility, but it is also a great honor to be sent with the Word that gives life.
