“God’s Will for Kids from 1-92”

Paul gives instructions for the whole household in the book of Ephesians.  He started with husbands and wives and then moved on to children.  The instructions given though are not just for people under the age of 18.  These instructions apply to anyone who is a child–which means all of us.  Take some time to listen to the sermon and you’ll understand what I mean.  May the Lord encourage and challenge you from His Word.

“Foreign Concepts to Today’s Marriages”

Marriage as an institution has been having problems for many years.  Many have tried to solve the issues but have searched for answers in all the wrong places.  The Scriptures provide the solutions if we are willing to implement them.  It won’t be easy but as we put God’s plan into play we find a balance in marriage what God always meant it to be.

“To Whom Can You Compare God?”

We serve a God unlike any other that people in our world worships.  He alone is the only true God.  In Psalm 139, David describes just how unique he is.  We pray that you’ll be encouraged by God’s Word are brought face to face with who He is in this psalm.

“Two Ways. Two Outcomes.”

When I drive semi-trucks, I usually pack a toolbox with some of the essential tools I may need to help fix problems I come across.  Taking that illustration and applying it spiritually, what tools do you have in your spiritual toolbox?  What passages and chapters do you keep handy to help you in times of trouble, when you need comfort, when you have a decision to make and need some wisdom, etc.?  We are staring a new sermon series with…

“The Belt of Truth Should Do More than Hold Your Pants Up”

In Ephesians 6, the Apostle Paul writes about the Armor of God.  Among the items that he lists is the Belt of Truth.  Truth today though has become a sore subject but many don’t like the thought of absolute truth.  People today would rather truth be determined individually which in the end gives each a license to sin ultimately.  Take a few moments and listen to this sermon on truth and its importance in our current day and age.

“The World Changed But God Didn’t”

Today we remembered the 15th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks.  We remembered those that lost their lives on that horrific day.  We also recognized and thanked our local emergency service personnel for their service to us.  As we remembered that day, we reflected on what has and what hasn’t changed in 15 years.  We pray that you’ll be comforted and encouraged by the truth of God’s Word and His unchanging nature.

“Lift Your Eyes & Voices”

It is always a blessing to see people who used to be a part of the church return and visit.  Adam Jackson grew up in the GBC family.  After finishing school, Adam went into full time ministry as a pastor.  We are blessed to have him back visiting us and for the opportunity to hear what the Lord has laid up on his heart.

“Tolerance – Understanding It Biblically” – Part 2

This nation has been preaching tolerance a lot recently with the issues of gender and marriage taking up much of the headlines.  The tolerance that the nation is preaching has been redefined to fit a movement rather than following how Scripture and even the dictionary itself defines it.  In this two part series, we will be looking at the true definition of tolerance as well as how we are to show tolerance biblically toward the world around us.  How does…

“Tolerance – Understanding It Biblically” – Part 1

This nation has been preaching tolerance a lot recently with the issues of gender and marriage taking up much of the headlines.  The tolerance that the nation is preaching has been redefined to fit a movement rather than following how Scripture and even the dictionary itself defines it.  In this two part series, we will be looking at the true definition of tolerance as well as how we are to show tolerance biblically toward the world around us.  How does…

“The World that Shrunk God” – Part 2

As time has progressed, our nation and the world included have become less and less dependent upon God.  Our world has increasingly left the pursuit of God to follow after the trivial and short served pleasures of this world.  Paul’s letter to Timothy acknowledges this.  Take some time to listen to this sermon.  Just how much has the world shrunk God?  What is our response as believers?

Sacrifice of Praise Service

We have been using the fifth Sundays in various months this year as a time to share how God has been faithful to us.  We believe that it is vital for us to share our stories, our testimonies.  As we do, we encourage others within the church about God’s comfort and faithfulness and in general His character as God and how He interacts with us.

“What the Bible Says about Disobeying the Government”

We are facing some unique days as Christians.  The government itself is changing from the values and ethics that it was founded upon originally.  When the government begins to legislate that which is contrary to the Word of God, how is a Christian supposed to respond?  We are not alone in this.  Many believers across the world is already facing this issue.  Let’s look the the Scriptures though for guidance.
