You Are of Value!
Thought for the Day: James Madison our fourth president and author of the Constitution and the Bill of Rights pledged the full faith and credit of the US government behind our currency. God made a greater pledge to us. “I will not fail you or forsake you. I am with…
Growing in Godliness
Today was supposed to conclude The Elements of Healthy Relationships series; however the events of the last week have led me to focus elsewhere. Listen to 2 Peter 1:3-11, “His divine power has given us everything needed for life and godliness, through the knowledge of him who called us by…
Sharing Responsibility and Serving One Another
Sharing is something we’re taught from a very young age. We learn we’re to share what we have with others and we’re grateful when others share with us (whether it’s a toy or a tool, a fried clam or French fry or some other healthy snack). Sometimes, we can be…
What We Long For – Faithfulness
Proverbs 17:17 (The Message), “Friends love through all kinds of weather, and families stick together in all kinds of trouble.” That’s gratifying and encouraging when it happens and painful when it doesn’t. The next scripture from 2 Samuel 15:17-23 is about a time when a family didn’t stick together in…
A Healthy Dose of Joy – Living with a Glad, Cheerful Heart

Ingredients to Sweeten Your Relationship
We scheduled this series on The Elements of Healthy Relationships so that both Mother’s Day and Father’s Day would be a part of it. Each person’s experience of those two days is different depending on whether we had or have a good relationship with them or not and whether our…
Learning to Live in Peace
John 14:23-27, “23 Jesus answered him, “Those who love me will keep my word, and my Father will love them, and we will come to them and make our home with them. 24 Whoever does not love me does not keep my words; and the word that you hear is not mine,…
What Does Love Do?
The last few Sunday’s it’s been nice seeing more and more of our people returning from Florida and Arizona and other warmer climates. If you’ve recently returned from a place like Florida, and even if we haven’t, we understand a basic truth: the climate controls the crops – you don’t…
Trust is the Glue of Life
I want to begin this morning with a game called Jenga. Are you familiar with it? A Jenga game consists of 54 small wood blocks. To set up the game you stack all of the blocks in levels of three placed next to each other and at a right angle…
Respect
This morning, we start a new series called, “The Elements of Healthy Relationships”. Every day we are in relationships with people. People we enjoy spending time with like family, friends, and even co-workers and also with people that drive us a little nutty. These people can bring stress into our…
