In Ephesians 5:7-14 Paul clarifies that perpetuating or even talking about the shameful acts of the disobedient is to lend tacit approval to their practices.  How do we, as those entrusted with the truth, let the light of truth expose that which is hidden in the darkness? And how do we do it with conviction, humility, and grace? Join us next week as we continue our study of Paul's letter to the church in Ephesus and explore what it means to "walk as Children of light."

This Sunday, our message will be called "Biblical Clarity in an Age of Moral Confusion". Most of us realize that the culture in which we live has experienced a seismic moral shift. Not only have the standards of morality with regard to decency and sexuality changed dramatically, but the pressure to conform is enormous. From the court rooms to the classrooms to the concert stadiums, public pressure is upon all citizens to capitulate or to be publicly castigated and cut off from society. Many Christians have found themselves questioning or struggling with long held ethical and behavioral practices. What we need to be reminded is that this is not a new issue. Neither is it a confusing one. The Bible is calm and clear. I was going to call this message, Keep Calm and Carry On. Come as we look at this together at how the church exists to be a clearly contrasting kingdom in a world that is rushing headlong into calamity.

What is it that gets you out of the bed in the morning? What is the heartbeat that drives everything that you say and do? By what measure do you decide whether today has been a good day or a bad day?

Today, we will be looking at Ephesians 5:1-2. Come and see how our joy in God’s joy shapes all that we do as His children.

We are going to celebrate Memorial Day Weekend with a family service outdoors. Come, bring your lawn chairs, and enjoy the beginning of the summer season.  Our time in the Word will be on Ephesians 4:31-32, Softening Your Voice By Softening Your Heart. We're looking forward to a fun and edifying time together.

This Sunday we had our annual Youth Service. Our message for this Sunday is The Transforming Power of Words. Whether you are a Teen or not, you know the powerful impact of words.

Some words that you hear as a young person linger over your entire life as adults. God is a God who uses Words to build and to beautify His people. Speaking is not a right in God’s world. It is a privilege and a responsibility. Let’s come and consider how our words can be wielded for great good!

Let's Worship Together!

This Sunday, we studied Gospel Generosity – The End of Stealing. We live in a world that is wrestling with consumption, self-absorption, and greed. When Christ changes the hearts of God’s  people, their gratitude for grace and their love for God and others, completely transforms their ambition. Holy ambition creates passionate generosity. Thieves becomes givers. Come and let’s consider how the gospel makes givers out of us all.

Let's Worship Together!

The old adage says, "You don't get to choose your family."  While this may be true from a biological standpoint, from a spiritual standpoint, when we place our faith in the work of the cross, we are adopted into a new family with Christ as the head.  What does this mean for those in our biological families?  How are we to exist as members of both families? How can we reconcile the differences between the two?  Join us as we celebrate Mother's Day and learn more about God's design for the new family that we are adopted into through the Gospel.

This Sunday, we are going to talk about something that might be a wee bit relevant to people’s lives:anger. There is no doubt that being a Christian in a broken world is going to give plenty of opportunity for a person to be angry. There is no doubt that we are living at a time of great public anger. What do you as a Christian do with it? In a day and age of instant communication, it is far easier to vent our anger than to strategically respond in a way that glorifies Christ. Come this week, as we study “How to Be Angry and Not Sin.” Oh, and please pray.
