Most of the messages we hear in church are focused on getting us to do and say the right things. Did you know that God does not focus on what we do but pays attention to our heart? Why does put our Hearts as His priority? Listen in as we discover why!

We are going to be Acts chapter two this morning and starting a series called The Cross Changes Everything.  I want to start with a little illustration:   One day, a teacher was teaching her young class the story of Jesus visiting Mary and Martha. She carefully explained how Mary and Martha had hurried to clean the house and cook a special meal. Then she paused and asked, “What would you do if Jesus was going to visit your house today?” […]

Our series Agape YourSELF is a powerful exploration of how first we must receive God’s love, make it personal and love ourSELVES and then, from the overflow of God’s agape love, we start to truly love others. Loving others this way is never a burden! Mike closes out this series with how to love others once we are loving ourselves.

Have you ever done something that hurt someone?  Something you were ashamed of?  Said or did something that was just a big piece of stupid?Of course you have!  And so have I. One benefit of being a Child of God is that when we receive Our Good Father’s love, it includes His forgiveness, which means we can choose to forgive ourselves.  In fact, we have no right to even hold our sins against us.

Loving yourself means feeling and acting confident.  When you have experienced God’s agape love and it is transforming you it is producing a confidence that you have not experienced before.  David speaks like he is not just a Shepherd Boy EVEN THOUGH at this moment that is all he is. He has never been in battle and possibly never wielded a sword.  But self-confidence does not come from what you have done but it comes From WITHIN.   Self-Confidence born from […]

YOU ARE ANOINTED! Imagine a shadow of a preacher falling on someone and them being healed; a Handkerchief bringing healing over someone; a word going forth and the preacher never laying hands on or even seeing a person; Or someone in town, complete crazy, naked, and breaking off chains when he was put in them, being sent as a minister to his old town—to declare what God has done!! You and I are anointed.  Period.  End of discussion. Everything else […]

“Now to Him that is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that works in us…” (Ephesians 3:20 NIV) It must be the power of Holy Spirit.  It is definitely not our own power.  It is not the power of Humanity that is working in us.  Each one of us believes that there is power working within us, correct?  But to what level do we believe there is power working within […]
