Living in the land of plenty for much of our lifetime, we

Today we talk about another significant area where personal guardrails can make a huge difference in many lives. Drs. Les and Leslie Parrott state: “The truth is, most engaged couples prepare more for their wedding than they do for their marriage.” Whether married or “someday could be”, creating guardrails is a significant step of expressing love to the one you choose to make a promise to.

Today we continue our series on the idea of setting up guardrails in our lives. Today we are going to talk about the importance of setting up guardrails when it comes to sex. The idea of sex and sexual behavior is always somewhat uncomfortable to talk about, but if there is one area of life that absolutely needs some guardrails, this is it. This is the area of life that it is probably the most difficult to recover from. As we look at God

The influence of a friend is powerful. People do things in the presence of friends they would never do alone. Today we look at a cornerstone verse for friendships or any other relationship.

Our culture lays out some pretty weak directives for some pretty weighty matters. God calls us to listen to something much more significant with areas of life that can be major pitfalls. Who will you listen to? What action will you take? This message starts us thinking about the importance of guardrails.

Sometimes God calls us to take a step that we are uncomfortable with. We find ourselves confronted with fear of failure, fear of rejection, or maybe fear of unpopularity. But we can take heart and have courage because God never calls us on a journey that he hasn

Fences in yards are much more common than they used to be. We put up fences to keep our small children and pets in the yard. Those same fences keep unwanted people and pets out of our yard. We may install a fence to add privacy to a pool area or to hide valuable backyard possessions. Fences can serve a valuable purpose. As followers of Jesus, we

Only one percent of Americans are marathoners. It's a rare breed of people. God's plan for marriage is a marathon event. A marathon is successful for many of the same reasons that a marriage lasts and fulfills. Are you up for a challenge?

How do an imperfect man and an imperfect woman diligently pursue the best of marriage under the loving rule of God?

Walking down the aisle is easy. Getting married is easy (though we tend to complicate it). Being married, staying married, and building a marriage takes effort. Too often we settle for something far less than what God intended for marriage. Why not strive for the best of what God intended?

Life can hand you some pretty rotten situations. You�"ve either learned this or soon will. Jesus understands completely.

Jesus made sure He was able to share the Passover with His disciples before His death. He wanted them to connect with His life through what they already understood and what they would later understand - true life is found only in Him. We have a similar opportunity to connect with the life of Jesus.

Jesus was a wanted man in Jerusalem. A bounty had been placed on His head. Instead of running the opposite direction, Jesus headed straight for the heart of the city. Why? He saw a great opportunity to be known and wouldn

Jesus does more than redeem us and point us in a new direction. He tells us and shows us how to build a new life. Our task is to realize this life and teach it to others.

Why do we go to the trouble to baptize people? Wouldn

If you are in Christ, you

A core principle taught in the New Testament is that there can only be one leader in your life...one voice, one drive above all others. In His love for us, God allows us to make this choice of whom to follow. Your life, your family, your workplace, your church, and your circle of friends will all be influenced by your choice.

Baby Dedication Sunday

2010 is still in its infancy. We face a year with some things we expect to happen. If we know someone who is pregnant, we expect them to have a baby in this year. Due to the faithfulness of the seasons, we do expect it to get warm again in the spring. But we also face many unknowns. How will you prepare for those?
