This invitation is not just one of salvation, but it is a daily invitation to know the person of Jesus. Not just daily, but moment to moment; To know Jesus and learn from Him. To witness His humility and gentleness. It is a shame that this invitation so often goes unanswered not just in salvation but in the daily lives of Christians. |

This part of the Jesus story is probably the best Incorrectly known part of the entire Bible. The Bible does not mention that they were kings, or that they made it to the manger scene, or that there were only three of them. So, all of this begs the question: Who were these guys? And why were they looking for a Jewish king? |

For us to find trust in the faithfulness of God for today and tomorrow we must look to the evidence of His faithfulness in the past. He who has proven Himself faithful will continue to prove Himself faithful. Mary here grants us an example of the proper posture of the heart when facing things far above and beyond our strength. |

Try this Christmas to make every ornament, every tree, every song, a reminder and encouragement that your God is faithful and true to bless you and protect you. |

Today’s message is a very simple point, and that’s the danger often we stumble over “The too simple” ... such as God loves you! |

The reason society follows image is, it truly believes there is nothing else, nothing more important or more powerful than their “gods”. The sooner any of us realize who it is we will have to answer too, the better our lives will get! The less we will focus on image, and the more we focus on our creator. |

To be at peace in the midst of chaos and uncertainty, a christian only needs to be reminded that God’s moral order and kingdom are not of this world, and cannot be overthrown! |
Tue, 2 November 2021
You're going to have a tough time if your question to God is always “Why”? We need to learn to change that too, "What God are you teaching me? What am I to see or learn?" |

Theology lived out during affliction expresses itself in praise, proclamation, prediction, and petition. |
Wed, 20 October 2021
David is amazed that mortal humanity should have such a responsibility. He is realizing and pondering how he is such an insignificant creature in the universe and yet God cares for him immensely! |
Wed, 13 October 2021
If you start to defend yourself, you’ll never stop. It will suck all your time and energy and it will distract you from doing anything meaningful for God. |
Tue, 5 October 2021
You have faith, you know God is in control. But God will deliver you in the end doesn’t spare you from the languishing of the current season you're in. The christian life is not pain, mistake, or broken proof. |
Tue, 28 September 2021
David’s appeal to enter into the house of the Lord is based on the love of God. It is only by God that we enter into the temple of God. This is the message of the gospel! |
Thu, 23 September 2021
Faith is like a muscle, it must be worked out to be enlarged. If you feel like you’ve been broken down or beat up, take hope... for that is when David was enlarged! |
Wed, 15 September 2021
It must really tick the devil off to think that creatures like David, like us, have been given the very thing he strived so hard to have. That God's glory becomes our glory when we give Him praise, thanksgiving, and worship! |

This week, Pastor Waxer Tipton and Pastor Maiola Vivas both speak about how Psalms 2 relate to our current everyday life and the times. |

All of the nutrients and nourishment it needs to fruit and grow. Apart from the vine even the largest healthiest greenest branches can not thrive. |

Join us this week as guest speaker Krish Dhanam talks about being confident in our faith! |
Wed, 18 August 2021
God calls us to repent because he desires that all would find life! He takes no pleasure in the destruction of the wicked. The call to repent is rooted in God’s grace, mercy, patience, faithfulness, love, and compassion. |
Wed, 11 August 2021
God is justified when He speaks. When He pronounces judgement against sin He is righteous and good! |
Tue, 27 July 2021
God’s sovereign care for the body of Christ reminds us of His sovereign care for us. Providence. Will He not also care for the body of Christ as the church lives? |
Tue, 20 July 2021
Today we’re going to see what I call “The Others”. So far the narrative has closely followed Jesus and His disciples; But now we see the other disciples. Those not named among the twelve, but who still follow Jesus or recognize who He is. |
Tue, 13 July 2021
This was the moment in which Jesus took upon himself the full wrath of God upon sin... the sin of all the world for our sake!. Mark only records Jesus say, “My God my God why have you forsaken me?”. This was no doubt a victory cry. This was the Lion of the tribe of Judah roaring in victory over sin! |
Wed, 7 July 2021
Jesus did not need to prove Himself to be God to come off the cross to the Pharisees. It was already written to what happened to Him. There is evidence all around us to who Jesus is, are we willing to believe or make up excuses of the evidences? |
Sun, 27 June 2021
Some see the cross as the end of Jesus’ ministry; But this is as foolish as seeing your wedding day as the “End of Dating” after marriage. I didn’t end something the day I got married… I entered in to something even more amazing! Something richer, deeper, and more consistent! |
Tue, 22 June 2021
Who did the rabbis teach was the only one who could cleanse leprosy? God! If the priests declared the leper clean but rejected the One who cleansed him, their unbelief would be incriminating evidence against them. |
Tue, 15 June 2021
Prayer is great in times of crisis, but it is even more effective when we are prepared for whatever may come by being filled in the spirit. That’s the thing about tragedy, most often it comes unexpected. |
Tue, 8 June 2021
But our God is patient and kind! He bears our imperfections with love and grace, believes wholeheartedly in us, is filled with hope over who we are, and joyfully endures our process of sanctification. |
Wed, 2 June 2021
Jesus had just come from the house of Simon the Leper… where a woman lavished on Jesus a great act of honor and worship… though she probably didn’t know it, Jesus said, “She has anointed my body for the burial.” Now, one day later, he and his disciples are preparing for the Passover and Jesus’ thoughts and intent are from here on focused on the cross. |
Tue, 25 May 2021
Why was The Son of Man anointed with spikenard before the Passover and Unleavened Bread? It was a symbol which showed that He is the Messiah/Christ, chosen because his life was unleavened and precious in value. And the very costly pure nard will be broken and poured out, through burial, for many. |

What Jesus was first responding to was the coming destruction of the temple, but they included the end of the age thinking they were one and the same. |

What Jesus had been trying to convey to them and us is that His retirement plan is awesome; And it’s benefits are out of this world …“behold what wonderful stones and what wonderful buildings!” |
Tue, 27 April 2021
God celebrates the faith of those who trust in Him with all that they own. Giving to God through our time, talent, and treasures isn't just about what we are giving but the heart behind it. To God, what you are giving from is more important than what you are giving too. |
Tue, 20 April 2021
Listen in this week with our guest speaker Don Piper. We all have a journey in life and a testimony to give. Join in in as Don Piper shares his testimony! |
Tue, 13 April 2021
There is almost no better way to command absolute love for another person than to say, love them the way that you naturally love yourself. Even the people who say I hate myself - still at the deepest part of their heart desire their own well being. This text is not calling us to neglect ourselves either. Only to love our neighbor with the same type of tenacity, intentionality, commitment that we choose for ourselves. |
Wed, 7 April 2021
Join us for our Easter 2021 service as we run into a Shepard while he is out looking for his lost sheep Jacob! |
Tue, 30 March 2021
Acknowledge that you’ve been made by Him, for Him, in His image. Through our faith in the Jesus, we become radiant image bearers again, because He fills us with His spirit and conforms us to His likeness. |
Tue, 23 March 2021
Here’s what sin is; It’s taking our lives, made in the image of God, for God, by God and using all of our ability, our capacity, and our talent in rebellion against God. To live for our own praise, with our own purpose, in our own way. The consequence of this rebellion is death and separation. But the image that is marred in sin, is restored by the blood of the perfect image of God. |
Tue, 16 March 2021
In a broken world, people are lost in a cave, and it is our job as christians to help them see in a new perspective by leading them out of the cave and showing them the love of Jesus. |
Tue, 9 March 2021
But Remember... Jesus came at a time when the Temple was still standing, when the Priesthood of Israel was still in effect, and when the sons of Aaron had charge over the sacrifices. The Cohanim Presented the Lambs for Sacrifice. So... shouldn’t there have been some connection, some recognition given by the priestly line. That the final and ultimate sacrifice had come? |

See what? Their belief! How do you see someones belief? Their transformed life. Even when you saw the regenerative work of the spirit in their life, you still did not believe. These people were transformed, not just convinced. |
Tue, 23 February 2021
God alone is the firm foundation upon which our faith, life, hope, joy, peace, and our salvation rests. To put faith in anything else is to trust in things that will fail. |
Wed, 17 February 2021
So to become great in God, you must become deep in God. strengthen your roots. Make it your priority to grow deeper in the hidden and secret places and your life will bear much fruit as it is written, "The root of the righteous . . . will bear fruit." Proverbs 12:12 |
Tue, 9 February 2021
Jesus entering the temple should be one of the most incredible moments of anyone’s life. The Messiah, the King of Kings has come into the holy place of God. This is where the people of God should be able to come into the presence of God. Here is the righteousness, glory, exact representation of God. This should be cause for celebration. |
Tue, 2 February 2021
It is an Interesting thing how subtle our loyalties and dependencies can shift. Just who it is we are asking or relying on to “Save Us”! To whom are we saying “Hosanna” too? |
Tue, 26 January 2021
Let us learn from this and seek to lay our agendas down daily that we might hear what the Lord has to say, including the warnings from God, and thus be better prepared for that which is in store; The blessings, and the sufferings. |
Wed, 20 January 2021
But what I like about this story is Bartimaeus had a need, he had limitations, but he did not hide behind or excuse them or even worse, condemn himself because of his condition. |
Wed, 13 January 2021
They’ve Heard this before…, it's not new… but the don’t really get it … so they just set it on the back burner…. they focus on the things they want to and like. You know what happens when this happens? “SELF-tianity”! |
Tue, 5 January 2021
We are going to take time to ask the Holy Spirit for revelation on the present as we reflect on the past and look to the future. |
Tue, 5 January 2021
God alone brings about this grace...we have no hand in the creation or completion of God’s grace. Planned from all ages, begun, message sustained by prophets, sovereignly guided, manifested, carried out, completed, and delivered by God. |
