What Makes Christians Different? - Christians Are Planted By the Word - July 12, 2026

1 Corinthians 3:5-11 The world expects growth to come through strong personalities, persuasive leaders, and effective strategies. But the church grows differently. Pastors and Christians can plant the seed of God’s Word and water it faithfully, but only God can create faith and make it grow.That truth is both humbling and freeing. We do not need to make anyone believe, carry the guilt when someone resists the gospel, or compete for credit when faith bears fruit. Our calling is to keep sharing Christ crucified and risen, trusting God to work through his powerful Word in his time and in his way.

Say It Out Loud - Love God Above All - June 28, 2026

Matthew 10:34-42 What happens when following Jesus costs more than expected? A backflip, a poker table, and Jesus’ startling words about peace and a sword all point toward the same uncomfortable question: What are we willing to lose in order to hold on to what is true? When God's Word creates tension with family, friendships, comfort, or the approval of the world, silence can feel safer than speaking. But the peace Jesus brings is deeper than avoiding conflict, and the life he promises is greater than anything we may fear giving up.

Say It Out Loud - Keep the Faith! - June 21, 2026

2 Timothy 4:1-8 When the world doesn’t want to hear the truth, why keep speaking it? 2 Timothy 4:1–8 answers with Paul’s charge to Timothy and to Christ’s church: Preach the Word. Even under pressure, even when silence feels safer, Christians are called to confess Christ with courage—because his truth is still needed, and his final verdict is better than the world’s.

Say It Out Loud - God Loves Sinners - June 7, 2026

1 Timothy 1:12-17 Paul gives us a trustworthy saying: "Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners." "God loves sinners" seems easy to say until you think about what it means...It means if we want God's love, we have to admit we're really sinners! Paul does not minimize sin. He calls himself a blasphemer, persecutor, and violent man. But his story is not finally about how great his sin was. It is about how much greater Christ’s mercy is. If Jesus showed patience to Paul, then no sinner is beyond the reach of his grace.
