Messages
From the earliest Biblical times, God used individuals to communicate, bless and inspire people. Our pastor preaches a sermon based on the Bible, but applying it with relevance to strengthen and guide our everyday lives. Occasionally he will preach a series to address a particular topic. Below you will find a number of worship services with messages that we know will bless your life. They are listed chronologically, but also by category.
