The Burdens We Bear
In Matthew 7 1-2, Jesus tells us that how we judge others will be used as the measurement of judgement for ourselves.
We know the fear of being seen as a bad parent, but what can we do about it? In this message we look at that fear and how to use Jesus's admonition against casting judgement to escape it. -
Being Strong When You're Terrified
We’ve heard the stories of brave men and women of all ages who face terrifying situations and demonstrate a faith most of us can only wonder at. We hold them up as heroes, and rightly so. And yet, most of us will never face a situation like that, so we are left feeling somehow weaker, not knowing if we could ever be that brave, have that much faith. What do we know of fear and being strong in the face of terror?
The truth is, we all face overwhelming fear at some point in our lives. In this message, learn how to quiet your heart and mind to hear how God is taking care of you. -
Harvesting What You Sow
In Galations 6 1-10, Paul tells us we must be mindful of our thoughts, words and actions lest we reap sour grapes rather than sweet apples. In this month's message we consider how sowing seeds of love and kindness will bring the harvest of happier people and a better future.

Reaching our personal goals, our dreams, maybe even our destinies becomes a real possibility when we begin acting more like Jesus and doing what is best for us rather than facing off with opponents.
