American Idols

​

Americans love idols, but God surely does not. If you love and trust something more than God, then it's your idol. It may be a "good" thing...but if it "replaces" God in your life, it's a sin. Let's explore why this is so important to God.

Obedience: God's Love Language

​

The 5 Love Languages describe the different ways people feel loved and appreciated. Everyone experiences love differently, and it's easy to miss the mark when it comes to showing that you care.  It also seems as though God has a preferred Love Language. Let's look at scripture to find out what it is.

Same God, New Year

​

The only thing that seems constant is that things constantly change.  Change brings with it uncertainty, uneasiness, or maybe even fear.  Yet, we look for stability, permanence, and security in things that are always changing.  So, what or who should we put our hope and trust into that is UN-changing?

Fix Your Thoughts

​

If you want to change as a person, start with your thinking.  Fix your thoughts!  Your thoughts control your life, behavior, attitude, and joy.  Satan uses mental strongholds to keep us from God’s truth and purpose for our lives.  We must win this spiritual battle in our minds.  When you “fix your thoughts” on God, God fixes your thoughts.

Stop Going to Church

Faith

​

It is impossible to please God without faith. Our faith is a gift from God; yet our faith can falter at times.  God provides times of trial and testing in order to prove that our faith is real and to strengthen it.  Let’s look at the eye witness accounts found in the New Testament to see faith being lived out in ordinary people.

A New "REAL" You

​

Many people like the NEW-ness or the “fresh start” of the New Year. Perhaps we feel like we can start a NEW self…with NEW goals and NEW plans…a NEW and better version of ourselves. God tells us “to put off your OLD self…and put on the NEW self.” Pastor Mitch Cherry from Hillside Church joins us to teach about how and why we do that.

The Naked Truth

​

Sex! What did God, the creator, intend for us when he created sex.  Satan and our culture are trying to pervert God's design for sexual intimacy.  Most everyone, including our youth, have a cell phone with instant access, twenty-four hours a day, seven days a week, to free, unlimited, hardcore pornography. In this series, we discuss the myths and truths about sex.

I Want To Believe, But...

​

I want to believe in God, but I can't feel Him, He doesn't answer my prayer, God's a big killjoy, He allows bad things to happen, I believe in science, and there are so many religions.  Maybe these have been deal-breakers for you as it relates to believing in God. When we say, “I want to believe,” are we talking about God…or our own version of Him?

We Are A Battleship

​

What kind of church are we: a cruise ship or battleship?  It’s ‘all hands on deck’ as we ensure our battleship is outfitted with The Armor of God as we engage in spiritual warfare.  Our mission is to take care of fellow soldiers on this battleship and fight for those not currently on God’s battleship.
