2 Timothy 4:1-2 - What Is A Faithful Pastor? - Part 1



On September 11, 2001, American was attacked by terrorists that flew planes into the World Trade Center. Thankfully one of the highjacked planes did not reach its intended target. It crashed in a field in Pennsylvania. The famous last words from that flight were spoken by Todd Beamer as he and the other passengers tried to regain control of the plane. They were, “Let’s Roll.” Those famous last words were later used as the rallying cry of the President to inspire America to fight back against Al-Qaeda. Join us this weekend as we come to the final chapter of 2 Timothy and study Paul’s famous last words to Timothy… Preach the Word!

2 Timothy 2:8-13 - The Reward Is Worth The Sacrifice



Last week Tom Brady and the Buccaneers celebrated another Super Bowl victory. While Tom and the players on his team are skilled at football, a Super Bowl victory doesn’t come without hard work and sacrifice. The reward of a Super Bowl championship makes all the sacrifice worth it. As Christians, when we share the gospel, we will be met with resistance by a world that is opposed to Christ and His kingdom. The good news is God promises to reward those who faithfully share the Good News. Join us this weekend as we learn why the reward of sharing the gospel is always worth the sacrifice.

Philippians 2:5-11 - Humility Leads To Honor




On May 25, 2020, George Floyd was arrested for using a fake $20 bill. The arresting police officers abused their position of authority. One placed his knee on George's neck taking his life. An outraged community protested. Unfortunately, some of those protests turned violent as police were attacked, buildings were burned, and stores were looted. This rioting spread across the country and even around the world. As a result was that the racial divide between blacks and white was widened, not brought together. There is now more anger and hatred, not less. What does the Bible say is the path to unity in our broken world? The path to unity is not through rioting, it is through humility instead of hatred. In these amazing verses, we see how Jesus is the model of humility that we are to follow. It was his humility that restored our relationship with God. It was his humility that led him to the position of highest honor, not to shame.

Heaven - Eternal Rewards - My Earthly Choices Make An Eternal Difference




As a Christian, our sins are completely forgiven by Christ. The Bible tells us we will not pass into judgment or be condemned. Does this mean it doesn't matter how we live? Will our sins return to haunt us? An ignored topic of the Bible is the doctrine of Eternal Rewards. God promises to reward us for how we live and we can lose reward for the willful sins we commit. Believe it or not, there is a way to insure we can have greater joy in heaven.
