PALM SUNDAY WORSHIP SERVICE AND CHILDREN'S CHURCH - MARCH 24, 2024

The Palm Sunday service draws our attention back to our Savior's entry into Jerusalem, where He will be crucified.  Many of those who were celebrating His arrival would later turn against Him and call for His crucifixion.  The events of that week -- His death, burial, and resurrection -- were necessary for God to receive the "perfect, sinless blood sacrifice" to redeem us and to restore us back to God.  Please join us with a humbled heart of thanksgiving to hear more about the reason Jesus willingly gave His life to save sinful people like us.  We are His creation, and He loves us ... but, unless we receive Him as Savior and King and choose His plan for our lives, we cannot enter the Kingdom of God.  God's grace alone is what saves us.  The service begins - in person and online via Facebook - at 10:30 a.m.  Everyone is welcome!

WORSHIP SERVICE AND CHILDREN'S CHURCH - MARCH 17, 2024

This Sunday, Pastor Brian Pinson will deliver a special message from Isaiah 6.  The sermon title is "WHY WE PRAY, WHY WE GIVE, WHY WE GO".  The focus this week will be on recognizing God's supremacy, His holiness, His mercy, and His salvation plan for us.  Until we can grasp, even minutely, the majesty of God, it will be challenging to surrender our will for His plan.  We MUST always remember the seriousness of sin in the sight of God.  In His love and mercy, He prepared a way for our sin to be forgiven by sending His Son to die a cruel death, shedding His blood, to cover our sin.  Unforgiven sin, including disobedience to His Word, results in God's judgment.  Salvation is a gift from God to us - an opportunity to be reconciled back to our Creator, the One Holy Supreme God of all things!!  To find out more, please join us, either in person or online via Facebook, at 10:30 a.m. this coming Sunday.   Come with open minds and open hearts to receive the Word of God!!  Everyone is welcome!

WORSHIP SERVICE AND CHILDREN'S CHURCH - MARCH 10, 2024

This Sunday, Associate Pastor Craig Ison will be delivering a message from Colossians 3:12-13, entitled "Raised with Christ", Part 2.  In a previous sermon from Colossians 3:1-11, Part 1 of the series, Paul was encouraging the Colossian believers to focus their pursuits on things above, not things on earth.  He tells them to put away the old things:  anger, wrath, malice, slander, and obscene talk from their mouths.  In this sermon, the focus is all about what they were to "put on".  As God's chosen ones, they were to put on compassionate hearts, kindness, humility, meekness, and patience.  Our perfect example of how we are to live our lives is found in our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.   We are all sinners in need of redemption, and Jesus paid the price for our redemption on the cross.  We "deserve" nothing, but He made a way that we can have "everything we need" through Him.  Salvation only comes through grace alone -- we can do nothing to earn it.  As believers, we are called by God to spread the Good News of Salvation to a lost and dying world, as His representatives.  J. C. Ryle gives us the following message:  "Let your Christianity be so unmistakable, your eye so single, your heart so whole, your walk so straightforward, that all who see you may have no doubt whose you are, and whom you serve."

Are you living a life that honors God?  Do you want to have a closer walk with God?  To learn more about how to live more like Jesus Christ, we invite you to join us this Sunday to hear this message.  You can join our service in person or online via Facebook at 10:30 a.m.   Everyone is welcome!

WORSHIP SERVICE AND COMMUNION - MARCH 3, 2024

This Sunday, Pastor Brian will conclude the sermon series entitled "Therefore welcome one another as Christ has welcomed you, for the glory of God."  This series is drawn from Romans 15:1-7 (ESV) and focuses on building unity in the Church in a world full of chaos and division.  As God's people, we are called "to pursue what makes for peace and for mutual upbuilding", using God's Word as our compass.  This week, the message will focus on the importance of all Scripture, the Old Testament and the New Testament, to enable us to lay aside our personal differences so that there is unity in Christ Jesus.  We are to focus our attention to building unity and fellowship in the church rather than causing division in the church by arguing over "disputable matters".  Paul's Charge to the Church:  "Agree to be in Unity, that God may be Glorified."  Paul's words were not only a charge ... it was his prayer.  Not only do we need the Scriptures to guide us in overcoming barriers, but we also need prayer in our lives and power from God.  To find out more about how you can pursue peace and unity, not only in the Church but also in your everyday life, join us in person or online via Facebook at 10:30 a.m. this Sunday.  Everyone is welcome to God's house!

**The serving of The Lord's Supper will be at the end of the sermon.

MORNING WORSHIP AND CHILDREN'S CHURCH - FEBRUARY 18, 2024

This Sunday, Pastor Brian continues with Part II of the sermon series entitled "Therefore welcome one another as Christ has welcomed you, for the glory of God."  This series is drawn from Romans 15:1-7 (ESV) and focuses on building unity in the Church in a world full of chaos and division.  As God's people, we are called "to pursue what makes for peace and for mutual upbuilding", using God's Word as our compass.  This week, Paul provides us with additional examples of how we are to focus our attention to building unity and fellowship in the church rather than causing division in the church by arguing over "disputable matters" to the detriment of the church itself.  Jesus is the greatest example of setting aside His desires and plans for the benefit of others.  Luke 22:39-42 tells us that He asked His Father "...if you are willing, remove this cup from me.  Nevertheless, not my will, but yours, be done."  The very reason you and I should be willing to forfeit our liberties at times, and to bear another's weaknesses, and strive to please our neighbor for their spiritual edification, IS BECAUSE the Lord Jesus Christ set aside His liberties in obedience to His Father's plan to fulfill the needs of humanity...He willingly took our sins to the cross so that we could have redemption and a restored relationship with God.  To find out more about how you can pursue peace and unity, not only in the Church but also in your everyday life, join us in person or online via Facebook at 10:30 a.m. this Sunday.  Everyone is welcome to God's house!!!

WORSHIP SERVICE AND CHILDREN'S CHURCH - FEBRUARY 11, 2024

This Sunday, we will be hearing from our Associate Pastor Craig Ison as he delivers the sermon "Raised with Christ".  The text for this sermon - Colossians 3:1-11 - is a letter to the church at Colossae.  The Holy Spirit inspired the Apostle Paul, who was in prison at the time, to write this letter to the church to direct them back to Jesus, their Savior.  The environment in Colossae was very much like our world today ... rulers who have turned away from God, people who choose to persecute those who follow Christ, a culture filled with pagan gods, and wolves who desire to cause division among the people (even in the church).  Paul tells the people to set their minds on things above and not on things of the earth.  A true believer is one who pursues holiness, and as they grow closer to Christ, the desires of their hearts change.  They are a new creation in Christ!

If you would like to know more, please join us this Sunday, either in person or online via Facebook, at 10:30 a.m., to learn  what it means to be "Raised with Christ".  Everyone is welcome!

WORSHIP SERVICE AND CHILDREN'S CHURCH - FEBRUARY 4, 2024

This Sunday, Pastor Brian begins a new sermon series entitled "Therefore welcome one another as Christ has welcomed you, for the glory of God."  This series is drawn from Romans 15:1-7 (ESV) and focuses on building unity in the Church in a world full of chaos and division.  As God's people, we are called "to pursue what makes for peace and for mutual upbuilding", using God's Word as our compass.  Paul provides us examples how we are to look into our own lives in order to help us not only to face barriers to unity but to actually overcome our differences.  To find out more about how you can pursue peace and unity, not only in the Church but also in your everyday life, join us in person or online via Facebook at 10:30 a.m. this Sunday.  Everyone is welcome to God's house!!!

WORSHIP SERVICE AND CHILDREN'S CHURCH - JANUARY 28, 2024

Next Sunday, Pastor Brian Pinson will continue with Part II of the Sermon Series "Why could we not cast it out?"  The Scriptures come from Mark 9:14-29, describing when a caring father who had brought his demon-possessed son to Jesus to be healed, but when he found that Jesus wasn't there, he asked the remaining disciples if they could "cast it out, and they were not able."  Jesus had given them the authority in Mark 6, but they lacked the faith to access the power to exorcise the demon in this man's son.  After hearing what had taken place, Jesus became burdened and filled with anguish over the situation.  His disciples had the authority given to them and had witnessed many miracles demonstrating Christ's power, yet they lacked the faith to cast out the demon.  

As believers, we have been given the power of the Holy Spirit within us to enable us to complete the work God has given us to do.  But, as many do, we lack sufficient faith to make a difference in the lives of people who come to us in a desperate hope that we can help them.  The success of the Church is not found in ornate buildings, large bank accounts, or thousands in the congregation.  The success of the Church is when she operates in the power of Almighty God, seeking for God's will and then following God's purpose for us ... spreading the Gospel message, helping those who are suffering, loving others as Jesus loves.  To hear more, please join us in person or online via Facebook at 10:30 a.m.   We welcome you to God's house!

MORNING WORSHIP AND CHILDREN'S CHURCH - JANUARY 14, 2024

This coming Sunday, Pastor Brian Pinson will continue with the message "The Cost of Following Jesus Christ", Part 2 of 2 sermons.  Last week, the focus was on "The Cost", the first aspect of our being a follower of Jesus Christ.  This week, the focus will be on the last two aspects, "The Consideration" and "The Conclusion".  We must continually remind ourselves that we are one year closer to the Rapture of the Church and to the Second Coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.  It is a time for focusing on the level of commitment we have to our walk with Jesus, as we look ahead with a renewed focus on things above. 

Being a genuine Christian is not an easy road in the sense that we will suffer pain and persecution in this world, but, as believers, we have the blessed assurance that God will be with us through every circumstance here on earth and has prepared a place for us when He takes us home!!   Matthew 16:24-28 gives us some instructions that will help us understand that the Christian walk requires that we deny ourselves and take up the Cross of Jesus if we are to follow Him.  This means that we follow the Savior with the example He set for us - a life of serving others before ourselves...making sacrifices to accomplish the will of God, focusing on doing everything all for the glory of God.  

Do you desire a stronger, more focused relationship with our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ?  Are you ready if the Lord should call you home today?  As a believer, would you be ready for the rapture should it happen today?  We invite you to join us this coming Sunday to hear Part 2 of this sermon series, "The Cost of Following Jesus Christ".  You can hear the message in person or online via Facebook at 10:30 a.m.  Everyone is welcome!

This coming Sunday, Pastor Brian Pinson will deliver the message "The Cost of Following Jesus Christ", Part 1 of 2 sermons.  As this new year begins, we must remind ourselves that we are one year closer to the Rapture of the Church and to the Second Coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.  It is a time for introspection of our commitment to our walk with Jesus...a time to look ahead with a renewed focus on things above.  Matthew 16:24-28 gives us some instructions that will help us understand that the Christian walk requires that we deny ourselves and take up the Cross of Jesus if we are to follow Him.  This means that we follow the Savior with the example He set for us - a life of serving others before ourselves...making sacrifices to accomplish the will of God, focusing on doing everything all for the glory of God.

Morning Worship Service and Children's Church - December 31, 2023

This Sunday, we will close out 2023 and prepare our hearts and minds for God's guidance in 2024.  Pastor Brian Pinson will be preaching the message "Man's Chief End:  To Give God Praise" based on Psalm 150.  We were created to give God praise, regardless of our circumstances.  This Psalm details that the Lord is to be praised, everywhere, at all times, because He is worthy, "because He has revealed to us His mighty deeds".  The psalmist answers our question:  "How do we give praise?"  In everything we are to give praise and thanksgiving to God...praising God by using the gifts He has given us, in music, in singing, in worship.  Verse 6 sums it up:  "Let everything that has breath praise the Lord!  Praise the Lord!"

Want to start off 2024 with excitement in your love for God!  Join us on Sunday, either in person or online via Facebook, as Pastor Brian delves more deeply into the message in Psalm 150.  Everyone is welcome!

CHRISTMAS EVE - MORNING WORSHIP SERVICE - DECEMBER 24, 2023

This Sunday, Pastor Brian Pinson will share the message "From the Manger to the Cross:  the Real Christmas Story," coming from Philippians 2:1-8.  On Christmas, we celebrate the birth of Jesus, the Savior of the world.  But there is so much more richness in the meaning of Christmas.  The birth of the Christ Child was the beginning of God's divine plan for man's salvation for those who would believe.  Without the birth of Jesus, there would be no message of hope, no death on the cross to cleanse us from sin, no resurrection to bring us back into a personal relationship with God, and no promise of life eternal in heaven with Jesus.  As believers, we know the eternal significance of Jesus' birth.  He is the God-man who would give His life as a perfect blood offering for our sins...to be forgiven once and for all...through the finished work of the perfect Lamb of God. 

Jesus lived a perfect life as an example for us to strive to become...through God's help.  Jesus led a life of humility in service to others.  Everything He said and did was to fulfill the will of His Father ... to show humanity the way to truth and righteousness through self-sacrifice and obedience.  Let everyone who has an ear, let him hear...the time is growing short...this is the time to examine your life and your walk with Jesus.  Do you know Him?  Are you ready for what's coming?

Please join us this coming Sunday to hear this special Christmas Eve message of love and encouragement.  The service begins at 10:30 a.m. - live in person or via Facebook online.  Everyone is welcome!

WORSHIP SERVICE AND CHILDREN'S CHURCH - DECEMBER 10, 2023

This Sunday, Pastor Brian Pinson will continue with the Sermon Series "The End Times", with Part IV of the Sermon "The Horrific Reality to Come".  This specific sermon will discuss the culmination of the Tribulation Period from Matthew 24:23-31, with a special emphasis on the Second Coming of the Lord Jesus Christ.  During His First Advent, Jesus took on flesh when He was born through natural birth and was placed humbly in a manger.  As He grew, He walked among the people, sharing the message of salvation.  He died a cruel death on a cross, was placed in a tomb, was resurrected three days later, and was transfigured back to heaven to sit at the right hand of the Father.  In His Second Advent, He will return supernaturally, and His coming will be a powerful display of the Omnipotence of Almighty God.  All on the earth will witness His return, and no one will have a place to hide from His judgment. 

Jesus came to us as the humble Lamb of God, but He will return to us as a Lion of the Tribe of Judah.  His armies will come with Him to issue judgment and establish His Kingdom for 1000 years of the Millennial Reign.  

The various prophecies in the Bible -- Daniel, Exekiel, Matthew, Revelation, Isaiah, etc. -- warn us about what is going to happen.  No one knows the exact timing of these events and when the end will come, but we are given some signs of the times.  If we look at events going on in the world and even in our own country, we see reminders that every day is closer to the Lord's Return.  Are you ready???  Are you preparing yourself and your family for what is to come?  If you are interested in learning more about the End Times as recorded in the Word of God, please join us this Sunday at 10:30 a.m., either in person or online via Facebook.

WORSHIP SERVICE AND CHILDREN'S CHURCH - DECEMBER 3, 2023

This Sunday, Pastor Brian Pinson will continue with the Sermon Series "The End Times", with Part III of the Sermon "The Horrific Reality to Come".  This specific sermon will continue to discuss the Tribulation Period from Matthew 24:5-21, with a special emphasis on the second half of the Tribulation Period, called The Great Tribulation.  During this period, the antichrist will turned against Israel and break the peace agreement that was established at the beginning of the tribulation period.  During The Great Tribulation, events will rapidly escalate in frequency and intensity, more horrific than anything that has ever happened before.  The antichrist will have world domination and lead many people astray with his delusions and supernatural powers, and those who refuse to worship him will be killed.  No one will be able to buy or sell anything unless they are a follower of the antichrist.  

The various prophecies in the Bible -- Daniel, Exekiel, Matthew, Revelation, Isaiah, etc. -- warn us about what is going to happen.  No one knows the timing of these events and when the end will come, but we are given some signs of the times.  As believers, the greatest promise we have is that the end of the Tribulation Period will be evident with the Second Advent of Jesus, when He returns to set up His kingdom.  Are you ready???  If you are interested in learning more about the End Times as recorded in the Word of God, please join us this Sunday at 10:30 a.m., either in person or online via Facebook.

WORSHIP SERVICE AND CHILDREN'S CHURCH - NOVEMBER 19, 2023

Pastor Brian Pinson continues with the Sermon Series "THE FINAL DAYS" with the third two-part message "The Horrific Reality to Come". This Sunday will be Part II of this sermon - we will continue to learn about the terrifying events that will take place in the world when Christ removes His Church and God pours out His wrath upon this unbelieving world. The time of the Tribulation will be so horrific for humanity that it is said to be "terrifying circumstances greater than the world has ever seen or ever will see". NOW is the time for spread the Gospel message to family and friends who do not have a personal relationship with Jesus!!! Only those who know Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord will partake in the Rapture, and those left behind will face extreme persecution at a point that cannot even be perceived by humanity.

If you or someone you know does not yet have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord, now is the time seek Him. The plan of salvation is very simple, but must be made with an earnest, repentant heart. We are saved through GRACE alone. Salvation and remission of sins comes only through the shed blood of Jesus on the cross and His resurrection, conquering death. We all deserve death, but He loves us enough to save us to an eternal life with Him in heaven. As believers, we walk by faith in Him, and we have our hearts and minds set on heaven!

The more a Christian learns about what God tells us in His Word about the end times, the better we can be prepared for His Coming and the more motivated we will be to sharing the message of salvation to those around us. We are not told the exact days and times of these coming events, but we are certainly given signs of the times. If you want to know more, please join us in person or online via Facebook on Sundays at 10:30 a.m. You are welcome to come to God's House!!!

14 “Now therefore fear the Lord and serve him in sincerity and in faithfulness.

But as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.”

This Sunday, Pastor Brian Pinson will be presenting the second part of the message "Christ Is Coming:  So Be Encouraged". This week's focus will be about the "Rapture" of the Church and how despite the rising level of chaos and calamity, all who are in Christ can look joyfully to Christ to return for his Bride.  We will learn about the great reunion we will have with our loved ones who died in Christ...a celebration without end!  The most important thing...we will "forever be with the Lord".
