December 3, 2017 - Rev. Jon Stouffer - Do you believe that God can make you perfect during this lifetime?  As we remember the anticipation of Jesus' birth by anticipating His return on this First Sunday of Advent, Pastor Jon invites us to identify what our focus is for our lives during this time of waiting.  If it is not in the understanding that God is powerful enough to deliver us from the power of sin and lead us to what John Wesley calls "Christian perfection," than what can we do in order to change that?

November 26, 2017 - Rev. Jon Stouffer - Pastor Jon reflects on Jesus' teaching on separating the sheep from the goats in the Gospel of Matthew and asks us to consider how a person's journey with Jesus begins: by having the right creeds or by doing the right deeds?

October 29. 2017 - Rev. Silverio Sanchez - This week Pastor Silverio teaches from the Scriptures on the Greatest Commandment and explains why Jesus’ call to love God and love our neighbors is so much more than offering our help to others.

It is the very nature of God in whose image we are made in. Therefore, we can be holy too.
