We begin our August series on the prophet Amos. Pastor Whit covered the first two chapters today. The nations have grown wicked, and Judah and Israel have become disobedient. Despite their outward success and prosperity, the worship of God's people has become empty and they have traded God’s glory for other things. There is grace in the warning, giving opportunity for correction through repentance, but judgment is coming and the time to repent is closing soon. Listen in...

We're in Week 3 of our series, "What Pleases God". Pastor Whit tied together the last three weeks by helping us see that pleasing God involves faith, living as a living sacrifice, and offering a sacrifice of praise and service.

God defines what is good, and it involves being redemptive and Christ-like towards others. Listen in...

Pastor Whit explored what pleases God, building on last week’s message on faith.

Moving into Romans 12, we learn we’re called to living a life of gratitude and service in response to God’s mercy. He highlighted the difference between actions motivated by a desire to earn favor and those driven by a genuine understanding of God’s grace. Listen in…

Mr. Al Satterfield shared with us today. His message explored the human tendency towards self-salvation and performance-based religion, tracing it back to the fall of Adam and Eve.

The message emphasizes that Christianity, centered on the death and resurrection of Jesus, offers a different path—one of grace and acceptance through left-handed power, symbolized by weakness and the cross.
