December 16, 2018 "Help When it's Hardest"

This Sunday, we will be considering together Hebrews 2:18. The message is entitled: Help When Its Hardest. The message of Christmas, the story of the incarnation of the Son of God, is an invasion of mercy into a world of misery. It is not a cute sentimental story. It directly answers life’s toughest questions. It meets us and ministers to us when life blows harsh and cold. Come as we rejoice in a Savior who came to help us when life is hardest.

December 2, 2018 Christmas Reflections - "Born to Set Thy People Free" by Pastor Kevin Dibbley

This Sunday, we will begin our Christmas reflections as we continue our study of Hebrews 2. Our message, entitled Born to Set Thy People Free, is taken from 2:14-16. Fear and  anxiety are commonplace in our culture. What we will see is that this is not new or accidental. It is the strategy of Satan to keep people locked into a fear of death. Christ came to bring this cruelty to an end by doing the only thing that could silence Satan and save us - to die in our place. Come as we think about the freedom that is ours because of the coming of Christ as a human being.

November 11, 2018 "Destined for Glory" by Pastor Kevin Dibbley

This Sunday, November 11th , we will be looking at this staggering truth about how much God cares about His children. When we struggle, the questions that come to our minds are often: “Where are you, God? Do you care, God? Do you even know what I am going through?” If you want to prepare ahead, read Hebrews 2:5-9 and Psalm 8. The answer is that not only does God think of us, but incredibly He has destined us to share in His glory. Destined for Glory is the title of Sunday’s message and its great news for God’s family.

November 4, 2018 "The Danger of Drifting" by Pastor Kevin Dibbley

This Sunday, we studied Hebrews 2:1-4. The message is called The Danger of Drifting. The reality for Christians is that living in the world always produces a challenge to our faith. The current of culture always flows steadily away from trusting Christ and remaining faithful to the Lord. Without careful attention to the truth of Christ, we will always be in peril. Thank God for the power and wisdom of His Word and the faithfulness of our Lord Jesus Christ!

October 7, 2018 - "Finish Line Faith - Introduction to the Letter to the Hebrews" by Pastor Kevin Dibbley

“In Christ, we do not fight for victory; we fight from victory.” HB Charles, Jr.Living the Christian life is a struggle. There is never a neutral moment. The call of Christ is to deny ourselves, to take up our cross daily and to follow Him. Left to ourselves, we easily grow weary and lose heart. This Sunday, we will begin a study of the Book of Hebrews. The author clearly calls Christians to the task of collective  ncouragement to run the race to the finish line. Encourage, encourage, encourage! We need it from one another daily. We can find it here in God’s Word. As we begin this study, we will take an overview of this great letter and see that despite the perils that have always faced Christians, we have a solid hope for preserving today and for all eternity.

September 16, 2018 - Decide and Discern Part 2. by Pastor Kevin Dibbley

This Sunday, we will continue in the section of Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount. Here Jesus speaks in very clear and sobering terms about entering the Kingdom of heaven.

August 26, 2018 " Removing Logs and Starving Hogs" by Pastor Kevin Dibbley

This week’s message is entitled “Removing Logs and Starving Hogs” This is a humbling passage of Scripture that has real relevance to all believers. Why do the sins of others bother us more than our own? Why don’t we see that being bothered by the sins of others is itself a very big sin? Let’s prayerfully consider Jesus’ call to deal with our own big blind spot before we attempt to remove the spiritual speck in someone else’s eye.

August 19, 2018 " Worry or Worship" by Pastor Kevin Dibbley

This Sunday, our message is called "Worry or Worship". In Matthew 6:25-34, Jesus teaches is that anxiety is the result of bad theology. The way to answer a life of worry is with a life of worship. Change how you view your heavenly Father and you will change how you view life’s uncertainties and trials.

August 12, 2018 “Treasures in Heaven” by Pastor Kevin Dibbley

August 5, 2018 “Hungering for the Lord.” by Pastor Kevin Dibbley

This Sunday, looked at Jesus’ teaching on fasting. The message, entitled, "Hungering for the Lord", recognizes that the great challenge for many Christians is setting aside anything in order to fuel their love for Christ. Whether it is food, social media, sports or whatever, we often attempt to fill our lives with things which cannot satisfy and we deny ourselves the thirst-quenching, hunger-satiating person of Christ. Let’s pray through this together and pursue a better way.

July 29, 2018 “Flee on your Knees: The Christian’s Battle with Temptation.” by Pastor Kevin Dibbley

Next Sunday, in our study of the Lord’s Prayer, we will be looking at the very real and very dangerous subject of temptation. Our message is entitled “Flee on your Knees: The Christian’s Battle with Temptation.” The Bible is clear that only a fool takes the threat against his or her soul in a cavalier fashion. Spiritual vigilance is necessary for every disciple of Christ if we stand firm against evil and hold high the name of Jesus Christ.

July 24, 2018 "Forgiven and Forgiving" by Pastor Kevin Dibbley

This Sunday, we are going to be prayerfully considering Jesus' teaching on praying for forgiveness. The great tragedy of Adam and Eve's fall into sin is that humanity has experienced deep deep brokenness and betrayal. On the vertical level, our sins have alienated us from God. At a relational level, we are all the walking wounded and wounding. Come as we consider why forgiveness is a constant need in the life of the Christian.

June 17, 2018 " Series Praying with Kingdom Priorities "Heaven on Earth: What Does It Really Look Like?" by Pastor Kevin Dibbley

Next Sunday, we will continue our study on prayer, Praying with Kingdom Priorities, with the message: Heaven on Earth: What Does It Really Look Like? Jesus teaches His disciples to pray that God’s kingdom would come on earth as it is in heaven. What does that look like and why should this captivate our energies and creative ambitions? Can we actually begin to see heaven on earth in our lives today? In a world that is very earthly minded, how do we elevate our minds and ambitions to something far greater and far more lasting?

June 10, 2018 Praying with Kingdom Priorities Mini Series "Hallowed Be Thy Name" by Pastor Kevin Dibbley

This Sunday, we began a little mini-series in the middle of our study of Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount is entitled: Praying with Kingdom Priorities. How often do we feel a great disconnect between our everyday lives and the calling that we have been given as disciples of Christ? Do we find that we move through the routines of life with a deep sense of holy expectation that God is here and at work in the dust and difficulties of ordinary people like us? Jesus’ teaching on prayer is meant to bring heaven to earth, the kingdom of God into the daily lives of ordinary people.
