The best dinner conversations are uplifting.  There is laughter in the air.  Love and concern for each other flows freely. Confirmation and hope is given with sincerity.  That’s the way it was at a fish fry one day with Jesus.  One of his closest friends needed lifted up and challenged, and there was no place better to do that than around a dinner table.  Or, in this case, a campfire.

Message from week 1 of our series, Burgers With Jesus. Delivered by Shepherding Pastor, Jon Talbott on 11/05/23.

The previous two messages in this series were simplistic, but difficult.  Responding appropriately with our words and actions sometimes might seem impossible with difficult people in our life.  However, if we can adjust what we think about these people, the words and actions flow better.  The key, then, is the mind.  Think pretty about ugly people!

Delivered by Lead Pastor, Dave Hastings on 10/29/23.

Walking the Christian life many times comes down to the exact opposite of how those in the world would walk. It is counter-culture.  Perhaps at no time is that more true than how we respond to those around us who are acting ugly.  What the world naturally would do, we never do.  And what the world would never do, that is exactly what we do. 

Week 2 in our series, Pretty Ugly People. Delivered by Lead Pastor, Dave Hastings on 10/22/23.

Our mouth is often the first indication of our prettiness, or our ugliness.  Following God’s will in the midst of being mistreated requires careful control of the words we use, and how we use them.  Paul was blunt for a reason; something you must never say, something you should say often.

Take the City | Week 4

We find in Acts chapter 6 hints of favoritism among some people.  The Hebraic Jews got first shot at the meals for widows, sometimes leave the Hellenist Jews without needs being met.  Although not entirely racism, it was a societal problem that was probably a source of tension.  The church should be willing to face head on cultural problems of the day.  But we will provide solutions, life examples; not just a judgmental spirit.
