CHRISTMAS SERVICE

This coming Sunday, we will hold our special Christmas Service.   The greatest gift mankind has ever received is Jesus.  Had He never been born, we would be lost forever in our sins.  Because Jesus was willing to leave Heaven and take on the form of humanity, live a humble life without sin, spread the Good News of salvation, and die a cruel death on the cross ... we have a way back to a right relationship with God!  Without His birth, there would be no salvation plan!

Christmas encourages us to live humble, selfless lives, recognizing our desperate need for a Savior.  Our Savior came in humility to fulfill the will of His Father.  He completed a conscious act of putting Himself in a lowly, servant role for the good of all mankind.  He is our perfect example of how we should strive to live our lives.  Praise God!!!

"Though he was in the form of God, [he] did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, but emptied himself, by taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men.  And being found in human form, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross."  Philippians 2:6-8

Please join us on Christmas morning, either in person or online, to celebrate Jesus, our Lord and Savior!! Everyone is welcome!!!

Morning Worship and the Children's Christmas Program - Sunday, December 18, 2022

This coming Sunday we will be greatly blessed by the children through the presentation of their Christmas Program.  Children hold a very special place in the heart of our Savior, Jesus Christ.  Their hearts are tender and open to receive the message of the Gospel.  

"And they brought unto him also infants, that he would touch them: but when his disciples saw it, they rebuked them. But Jesus called them unto him, and said, Suffer little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God. Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child shall in no wise enter therein."
— Luke 18:15-17 (KJV)


As you pray this week, please ask God to continue to bless our children with His protection and His guidance in their lives.  We invite you to "come and see" the Children's Christmas Program.  Everyone is welcome!

This Sunday, Pastor Brian Pinson will continue the emphasis upon Christmas and its meaning in this week's sermon:  "CHRISTIMAS AND THE MISSION OF CHRIST".  Believers cherish Christmas primarily because of the miraculous birth of Jesus, our Lord and the Savior of the world.  But there is so much more to celebrate!!  Please join us as we dive deeper into the importance of the First Advent of Christ and what blessings Jesus brought to us from God the Father, as we study the Lord's life, mission, and the "why" for His coming.  You can participate in the service in person or online - everyone is welcome!

REMINDER:  The Children's Christmas Program will be presented during the Morning Service next Sunday, December 18th.  We are always blessed by the children as they give honor and glory to Jesus!!

Morning Worship and Children's Church - December 4, 2022

This Sunday, Pastor Brian Pinson will share with us a beautiful message that is especially relevant at this time of the Advent season.  Taken from John 11, the message will lay out in more detail the purpose of Jesus' birth -- for the salvation of humanity.  He is the Son of God, taking on human flesh, in order to know each of us more intimately.  He knows when we cry out to Him because of our hurts, our pain, our sickness, our grief -- there is not anything we can go through in this life that He has not already experienced ... yet without sin.  He sees our tears, and He fully understands our suffering.  His birth - the First Advent - began the beginning of God's salvation plan for humanity.  We invite you to join us to hear this message - either in person or online - with open minds and open hearts.  As believers, we are reminded to "keep our lights burning brightly" until His Second Advent when we will all go home to be with Him forever.  Everyone is welcome!!!

Morning Worship and Children's Church - Sunday, November 27, 2022

This coming Sunday we will be celebrating The Lord's Supper.  After the music worship and a brief message, we will demonstrate our thankfulness to God for providing us His Son as a sacrifice for our sins.  We partake of Communion to remember Jesus - His body and His blood - given for us on the cross in fullfillment of God's plan for our redemption.  May God fill our hearts with love and gratitude for Who He Is to us as His Children.  Thankfulness should be a daily expression, not just during the Thanksgiving season.  Join us this Sunday as we celebrate Communion. 

Also, please remember in prayer those who are struggling this Thanksgiving -- poverty, grief, depression, isolation, sickness -- and most of all, be kind.  God bless you all this week!!!

MORNING WORSHIP SERVICE AND CHILDREN'S CHURCH - NOVEMBER 20, 2022

This Sunday, Pastor Brian Pinson will provide Part 2 of his sermon, "What are YOU going to do as Jesus passes by?"  The Christian believer must have a life that is rooted and grounded in FAITH in our Lord Jesus Christ!  God wants us to have faith that is genuine and unwavering ... not only for salvation, but also in our everyday living!  This week's message will focus on the fact that "Faith is Rewarded" and "Faith Glorifies God".  Our faith must be exercised -- put to the test -- in order for it to grow.  We invite you to join us for this message, either online or in person, to learn more about the importance of living a life of faith!  

HEBREWS 11:6 - “But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.”

This Sunday, Pastor Brian Pinson will deliver his message based upon Luke 18:35-43, which gives the account of the blind beggar man sitting at the side of the road and he hears that Jesus is passing by.  When he hears this, he begins shouting "Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!"  The crowd tries to stop him, but he is persistent in his efforts to get Jesus's attention.  His faith and his persistence resulted in his being healed by Jesus.  We invite you to come and hear the full story of this beautiful miracle, and find out how it relates to all of us today!  You can join us either in person or online -- everyone is welcome!!!

WORSHIP SERVICE AND CHILDREN'S CHURCH - SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 25, 2022

This Sunday, Pastor Brian Pinson will be preaching from Revelation 2:1-7 in his message entitled "When Love for Christ Begins to Diminish."  The greatest commandment found in Matthew 22:37-38 is that "Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.  This is the first and great commandment."  As believers, our lives should reflect our fervent love for God, making Him first in our lives.  The message from God to the church at Ephesus in the Book of Revelation points out the fact that they had lost "their first love", the love they had for God at the point of salvation.  Come and hear more about God's commands to the early Christians to restore their love for God.  You can hear the message online or you can visit us in person.  God loves us enough that when we veer off the right path, He makes a way for us to return to the straight and narrow way that leads us back to fellowship with Him.  Everyone is welcome!!!

MORNING WORSHIP AND CHILDREN'S CHURCH - SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 18, 2022

This Sunday, Associate Pastor Craig Ison will deliver his message "Jonah:  The Story of Rebellion and Redemption".  Most people know the general story about Jonah and the Whale, but there is so much more behind the story when you look deeper into God's Word.  It is a perfect picture of God's love, mercy, and grace.  He is the God of giving second chances ... He is the God of showing mercy with judgment when we repent ... He is the God of amazing love for His creation despite our weaknesses. He wants us to be obedient to His plan because His plan is always best!!  Please join us this Sunday to hear this beautiful message.  The service is available in person or online, and everyone is welcome!!!

WORSHIP SERVICE AND CHILDREN'S CHURCH - SEPTEMBER 11, 2022

This Sunday, Pastor Brian Pinson will continue his sermon on "THE CHRISTIAN'S SPIRITUAL ARMOR - BREASTPLATE OF RIGHTEOUSNESS".  The focus this week will be understanding the kinds of righteousness described in the Bible, and what we lose when we do not "put on" the full armor of God.  Satan wants to steal your holiness found only in God, because He is God's enemy and he seeks to destroy God's creation.  Our flesh can never be holy or righteous on our own; it is only through the redeeming divine power of Jesus Christ--His finished work on the cross and His resurrection--that we are clothed with His righteousness when we accept Him as our Lord and Savior.  In John 5:5, Jesus says, "The one who remains in Me and I in him produces much fruit, because you can do nothing without Me."  Are you protected by the "breastplate of righteousness"?  Find out more by hearing from the Word of God in person or online this Sunday.  Everyone is welcome!

This Sunday, Pastor Brian Pinson will return to the sermon series on "The Christian's Call to Arms".  This week's focus will be on the "BREASTPLATE OF RIGHTEOUSNESS".  As long as we are in this life, as believers we will fight the spiritual battles and attacks from Satan and his minions.  We must prepare ourselves for these battles by following the Word of God and putting on the whole armor of God.  We cannot fight this battle on our own -- we MUST rely of God's strength!!!

MORNING WORSHIP AND CHILDREN'S CHURCH - AUGUST 21, 2022

This Sunday, Pastor Brian Pinson will return to Ephesians 6, focusing on Verse 14 - "The Belt of Truth", the first of the six parts of the Armor of God.  The "Truth" is the immutable Word of God.  We are called to be rooted and grounded in His Word, so that we will be able to stand firm in His Truths.  This Truth is to be used as a filter in everything in the believer's life.  God has given us His Word as a foundation for preparing for the spiritual battles we face in this world.  To find out more about this "Belt of Truth", please join us either online or in person this Sunday - the service starts at 10:30 a.m.  Everyone is welcome!!!

MORNING WORSHIP AND CHILDREN'S CHURCH - AUGUST 14, 2022

This coming Sunday, Associate Pastor Craig Ison will deliver a message simply called "HOPE".  As a Christian, however, this is not a simple word, but HOPE found in JESUS is all we truly have in this world!  His message, found in Psalm 33:13-22, will encourage the believer and will attempt to awaken the heart of the unbeliever.  "Let your steadfast love, O LORD, be upon us, even as we hope in you."  The more we recognize that the things of this world are temporal and we submit our will to God's divine will for our lives, the stronger our hope in Jesus grows as we look to our eternal life in heaven with Him!

We invite you to join us to hear this inspiring message!  If you are a believer and just need a little reminder of the neverending HOPE we have in JESUS, or if you are not yet a believer in Christ and need an introduction on how to find eternal HOPE, please plan to attend the Worship Service that begins at 10:30 a.m.  Everyone is welcome!!
