Throughout this series, we will follow in the footsteps of the Apostle Paul. Paul got uncomfortable to preach the gospel. One of the places Paul spent time, was known for its immorality, yet the impact of His time there, was felt far beyond the city's borders.

This holiday weekend we stop to remember those who made the ultimate sacrifice for the safety and security of Americans everywhere. Yet as we remember those men and women, we also remember the gift of Salvation offered to us all.

Today's choices could lead to tomorrow's chains. What choices are you making today? How does that affect your perspective? We need to remember that we are in chains for Christ, not by Christ

Perhaps due to the social media phenomenon, most people would not consider themselves an influencer when asked. However, everyone influences the life of another, and it turns out Jesus had a lot to say on the subject!

People today are so eager to raise their social status. Who are we trying to impress? Rather than aiming for prestige, look for a place where we can serve.

The Bible has much to say about money, wealth, greed, contentment, and other topics pertaining to our financial and spiritual lives. There are over 2,000 verses in the Bible on this topic, almost half the parables, and one out of every ten verses in the Gospels deal with this subject. In a world where all income brackets live paycheck to paycheck, and debt totals continue to rise, we need to rethink our ugly money issues.

Current statistics say that approximately 92 million selfies are snapped daily around the world. The average person spends, a total of seven minutes taking selfies. It begs the question, what are we worshipping?

You've heard the saying, Bigger is not always better. We confuse the size of our home, with our sense of satisfaction. Culturally we've downsized the things that matter, for things that do not. Today anxiety and insecurity are increasing as it appears the world is spiraling out of control. However, the Bible speaks to what is happening worldwide and we can find peace because God is clearly in control.

This week we stop to give God thanks and challenge our Church family, as we ask God for greater days ahead.

There is a road that is known as the most dangerous road in America. It’s called the "Million Dollar Highway". There is a 12-mile stretch of winding mountain road, and if you're driving south you'll be on the cliffside, with no guardrails! The origin of the name is unclear. But the locals say "You'd have to pay me a million dollars" to drive that stretch in the snow. Any mistake can lead to severe consequences.
