Rend Your Hearts, Not Your Garments

God's Graduate School

From our Bible study on the life of David. Tradition is that David was 10-15 years old when he was anointed king; but he was 30 years old when he finally ascended to the thrown. During that time God was preparing him for the task he would have. And God is always preparing us for our next task in serving Him. Follow along study notes

The Power of Prayer

We continue our series on prayer. So far we have focused on what we say to God. But prayer is a dialogue with God - not us telling God our to-do list. This message we take a different look at prayer and focuses on the power that prayer has when we align ourselves with the ultimate power of the universe. Follow along study notes

The Magi (wise men)

The magi (wise men) from the east have always fascinated me in the Christmas Story. Where are these guys from? How did they find out about the birth of Jesus?

Those who saw it and those who missed it. (4th Sunday of Advent)

He is here! The Savior is born. We have angels and shepherds and prophets. But most of the people around missed the announcement. Why and what we can learn from this.

Jonah, Part 1

Jonah is one of the best known prophets in the Old Testament - for the wrong reasons. God called him to do a job, and chose to go the opposite direction. What can we learn from Jonah?

Dealing with disappointment

Disappointment is a fact of life. You expect something and it doesn't happen that way. You buy a new breakfast cereal and it just isn't very good. But what do you do when you are disappointed with God?
