Joy, for a believer, a deep sense of well-being, is always there. Sometimes, joy shines bright and we experience the warmth of its rays upon our lives. Other times, joy is hidden by our situation, and all we can do is wait for “joy to rise in the morning.” In this message Pastor Jack explores the two varying experiences, but shares how one can always hold on to the Joy that comes from the Lord.

Christmas is about giving and sharing. That is true of the "joy" we receive at Christmas time. The angel announced to the shepherds that first Christmas, "I proclaim to you good news of great joy that will be for all people. Today a Savior, who is Christ the Lord, was born to you in the City of David" (Luke 2:11).

That was the night the Greatest Giver, God, gave the Greatest Gift, His Son, Jesus Christ. This brought great joy. Notice what the shepherds did with the message that brought them so much joy.

"They reported the message they were told about this child, and all who heard it were amazed at what the shepherds shared with them" (Luke 2:18).

Christmas is about joy and the real experience of joy comes when you share it with others.

Hope is to despair what light is to darkness. Light pushes darkness aside. It doesn't go away, but it no longer has an immediacy or a control over our lives. Even the smallest light can keep the most massive darkness from controlling us.

In this message Robert shares the hope that is found in Christ and how everyone can experience it, if they so chose.

Peace, as promised by the Heavenly Choir during the Advent, is a profound sense of well-being that extends beyond this present world. Biblical peace is something “eternal” in both duration and quality. Biblical peace is not the “absence” of conflict but the Presence of Almighty God in our life.

In the second Sunday of Advent, Pastor Jack describes this peace and explains how it is available to all who desire it.

This Sunday is the first Sunday in the season of Advent--the time leading up to the celebration of the Birth of Jesus Christ. Advent covers the four Sundays before Christmas. Often an Advent Candle is lit each Sunday in churches, representing Love, Peace, Hope, and Joy. Our church begins this Sunday with the theme of Love.

Essentially, Christmas is a love story. It is a love story between to young adults, Mary and Joseph, and ultimately a story of God's love for all mankind.

We all know that we should give thanks for the things that we have, but why? In this message Robert explores the scriptures and provides the answer.

What does it mean to love? I don't mean, what does it mean to be in love or to feel love, but what does it mean to show love? The best way to answer that question is to look at who God is because he is love and in this message Pastor Andrew explores this topic, providing a clear understanding of what it means to love like Christ.

Prayer is the key to "power" in a life lived well. Nothing else will substitute for the power of prevailing prayer.

In 2014 terror wafted over the globe when a virus broke lose in Africa by the name of Ebola. It is a horrible, bloody, and scary disease. It qualifies as a “plague,” like the ten Great Plagues of the Bible which took place when the Great Pharaoh would not let Moses lead the enslaved Nation of Israel out of Egypt. God convinced Pharaoh using ten plagues: blood, frogs, lice, flies, pestilence, boils, hail, locust darkness, and the Tenth Plague, slaying of the firstborn.

This week we look at another plague that has taken over the earth; COVID19. Like the 11 plagues before is this 12th plague another warning from the Lord?

Within the world of religion there is every conceivable religious approach to humanity’s problems that you could imagine. But, who has the right answer. In our day it is politically correct to assert that all religions are good. But this week we will look deeper into the idea of God's view on religion.
