LOVE
Beloved, We are in the middle of Holy Week, the time between Palm Sunday and Resurrection Sunday, Easter Sunday. While some may be looking forward to a long weekend if you have Good Friday off, I hope and pray that you are also thinking about why you have that day off, your Lord and Savior, Jesus the Christ, dying on the cross for your sins and salvation. What Jesus did for you and me was the most incredible act of love that anyone has ever done on behalf of anyone else. You

Now, you may say, "WHAT, the Pastor has those kinds of questions going on in his mind?" Yes, I do.


All For Jesus
Beloved, On this first Wednesday of March, we are blessed to be able to share in all that God has done for us. For us, God has been a cover, a keeper, a provider and a protector. You can tell your testimony of this better than anyone else. In thinking of all of the blessings of God, Jesus laid out a plan, a game plan so to speak, of how we are supposed to get blessed by God. The game plan was laid out for us in Matthew 5:1-12 entitled "The Beatitudes", the initiation of th
