  • From the Pastor’s Heart --- “If your gospel isn’t touching others, it hasn’t touched you.” The following is a true account: What I saw years ago still breaks my heart. I was preaching for a small church. The volunteer receptionist told me bluntly, “Young man, you’d better do a good job preaching, because we have a visitor coming to church.” Evidently that was unusual. She explained how a lady had just called... ::view full post

  • Deacons Beacon --- Father’s Day It has been said that a dad is a fellow who has replaced the money in his wallet with snap shots of his family. No matter where a day takes him or what he does, a dad carries his family in his heart. My earliest recollection of my father was when we were standing waiting for a bus on a cold wet winter evening.  I... ::view full post

  • Valuing Our Differences --- Valuing our Differences by John V. Upton, Executive Director,Kingdom Advance I think there is an important question that needs to be addressed in church life today.  It’s an uncomfortable question but one which forces itself on us whether we like it or not.  The question is:  Do people with strong differing commitments and styles need each other for balance and completion? What I’ve learned is the answer to... ::view full post

Our Mission

Our mission is to participate in the fulfillment of the Great Commission recorded in Matthew 28:19-20:

“Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Amen.

Our Purpose

We believe it is our purpose as a church to help one another learn how to experience this personal relationship with God every moment of every day. Therefore, the goal of our effort is not on getting people to be religious by having them “come to church” or do “religious” things. Our goal is to assist people as they seek to live lifestyles that are pleasing to God in all their relationships. Church is a place to remind, instruct, inspire and encourage a growing personal relationship with God beyond the walls of the church.
