Together for the Gospel (T4G)... What a great and tiring time!  Imagine sitting under the preaching of John MacArthur, Mark Dever, RC Sproul and Al Mohler...well, that was just in ONE DAY!  Then the next morning to hear John Piper (at his God-glorifying best).  CJ Mahaney concluded the conference, and you need to know him … Continue reading Updates…

I thought you might want to know who / what influences your pastor.  I attended the Together for the Gospel Conference in 2006 and will be leaving this week for it once more.  Pray for myself, Richey Miller and Stephen Martin as we head to Louisville, KY on Tuesday.

HERE is a very good summary of the Council of Nicea from the ministry of Sam Storms. As you know, today there are several who discount, or plainly refute, that Christ is God. Others do so by elevating mankind to god-like status, and radically mis-interpret John 10:34-35.

As referenced in today's message, HERE is a fine article explaining the "Down Grade" Controversy during Spurgeon's day, which eventually led to his death in 1892.   I believe it's important to note such doctrinal tendencies to guard against secularism in our churches, all in the name of peace.

We make a regular practice in our Worship services to acknowledge our sin both through prayers of corporate and individual confession and allowing scripture to speak to sin as it is, a repulsive offense to a Holy God that demands expiation (atonement through blood).  The atonement, as we looked at this past week in John … Continue reading Sin has fallen on Hard Times

On the last Wednesday of every other month, we have a special all-church, whole-family worship experience from 6:00-7:00 PM.  These services are marked with extended times of prayer, praise and scripture reading.  We will still serve dinner at 5:00 PM.  Come and bring the whole family tomorrow night (March 26th) for a time of exalting … Continue reading All Church Worship this Wednesday
