Sunday, July 7th, 2019 - God Bless America - Pastor Jared Shumate

God bless America. It's a fairly common phrase heard in our country. Our Presidents often use it. You hear it in songs, or see it used in advertisements. It's often used as a statement, or a command. Instead, we should be using it as a prayer; God, please bless America.

This morning we continue celebrating our Independence Day by examining this phrase and what it could mean for our country. As we put the finishing touches on this 4th of July weekend, let us always remember that Independence Day was the start of something that continues on even today.

Make your prayer today God, please bless America.

Sunday Morning, June 23rd, 2019 - The Value of Lost Things - Pastor Jared Shumate

Think back to the last time you lost something important to you. Maybe it was your phone, your wallet or purse, or even your wedding ring. Maybe just the thought of it makes your heart race even now. You were probably frantic, searching all over the place until you (hopefully) found it. Once it's found you rejoice, maybe even cry with joy.

Now think back to the last time you lost a penny, or some pocket lint, or the chewed gum your child gave you. You probably can't remember those times can you? Did you search for it? Did you even care? Probably not, because those things hold no value to you.

This morning we take a look at three different, but similar, parables and examine The Value of Lost Things. Sometimes, we only realize the value of something after it is taken away from us...
