Fence-sitters, false gods, & fire from Heaven... Using the wonderful story of Elijah vs. the prophets of Baal, this sermon addresses the idea of "fence-sitting." If Jesus is Lord - follow Him!

Desiring to be an awesome Christian is critical, but desire without discipline leads to perpetual disappointment. Just as an athlete trains to win, so the Christian must be self-disciplined to serve the Lord well.

Sometimes we just need a reminder of who God is. Pastor Michael takes us through various Scriptures to teach us 12 Biblical facts about the character of our God.

Mary and Joseph take the infant Jesus to the temple to be dedicated to the Lord. While there, they meet two people: Simeon & Anna

Jesus' birth is a historical event that changed history. But what does it all mean? This message looks at the theology of the incarnation, and how that affects us.

Who is Mary? Some have made her out to be more than what the Bible says - an object of worship. Though they've taken things too far with Mary, she is nonetheless a fascinating person.

Paul was great; and Paul demonstrated at least seven characteristics of an excellent and godly leader in his letter to Philemon.

In Paul's letter to Philemon, we learn about a runaway slave named Onesimus. This message addresses all that we have to thank God for despite our circumstances.

What should you do if somebody wrongs you? Paul urges his friend Philemon to forgive his runaway slave. As recipients of God's grace we too are called to forgive those who trespass against us. What does forgiveness really mean?

The resurrection of Jesus after his death is the most important part of His story. This Easter message looks at three reasons why the resurrection is so important, and three reason why we can be confidant that it actually happened.

Jesus courageously enters Jerusalem, knowing his death is near. He is adored by the crowds who recognize that He is their King, Messiah, and Savior... but Jesus didn't come to overthrow the Romans

One of the most extraordinary events of Jesus' life, the Transfiguration, is fully explained. What was this intense mountaintop experience all about?

A postmodern society is seducing the next generation away from Jesus Christ at an alarming rate. How can we, like Peter, be confident in our faith in Jesus despite a world that is, at best, uncertain of his True identity?

There are modern day equivalents of Pharisees and Sadducees in the Christian Church. This sermon looks at Legalism and Liberalism and how they damage the ministry of Jesus.

Where do you turn when life becomes stressful? The Feeding of the 5000 & and the Walking on Water miracles represent amazing moments in history, but also a very difficult day for everyone involved. See how the disciples respond under pressure, and compare that with how Jesus does.
