    The Principle of Possessions – Part 2

    Sunday Evening Service – June 7, 2026 PMText: Luke 12:16–21Title: The Principle of Possessions – Part 2Preaching: Dr. Ernest GroceJoin us this Sunday evening as Pastor Dr. Ernest Groce continues his message from Luke 12:16–21 in “The Principle of Possessions – Part 2.” As we return to the parable of the rich fool, we will take a deeper look at the priorities of the heart and the eternal truths Jesus taught concerning wealth, stewardship, and our responsibility before God.The rich man believed that larger barns and greater possessions would bring peace, security, and satisfaction. Yet he failed to recognize that life is fragile, eternity is certain, and everything we possess has been entrusted to us by God. Christ's warning reminds us that the greatest tragedy is not dying with little, but living without being rich toward God.As believers, we are called to be faithful stewards of the blessings God has given us, using them to glorify Him and invest in things that will last forever. When our hearts are fixed on eternity, our possessions become tools for God's kingdom rather than treasures that control our lives.This message will explore:• The biblical purpose of wealth and possessions• What it means to be a faithful steward of God's blessings• How to invest in treasures that last for eternity• Guarding our hearts against materialism and selfish ambition• Living a life that honors God with everything He has entrusted to usCome join us as we continue this practical study from God's Word and discover how to handle earthly possessions with an eternal perspective, becoming faithful stewards who are truly rich toward God.

    The Principle of Possessions

    Sunday Morning Service – June 7, 2026 AMText: Luke 12:16–21Title: The Principle of PossessionsPreaching: Dr. Ernest GroceJoin us this Sunday morning as Pastor Dr. Ernest Groce brings a message from Luke 12:16–21 entitled, “The Principle of Possessions.” In this well-known parable, Jesus tells of a rich man whose land brought forth abundantly. Faced with an overflowing harvest, the man decided to tear down his barns and build greater ones so he could store his goods and enjoy a life of ease.Yet while the man was rich in earthly possessions, he was poor toward God. His focus was entirely on what he had accumulated rather than on the One who had blessed him. That very night, his life was required of him, and all that he had gathered was left behind.This passage reminds us that possessions are not sinful, but they become dangerous when they possess us. Jesus teaches that life does not consist in the abundance of things we own, but in our relationship with God and our faithfulness to His purposes.This message will explore:• The difference between owning possessions and being owned by them• The danger of trusting in material wealth for security• Why earthly treasures are temporary and uncertain• The importance of being rich toward God• How to maintain an eternal perspective in a material worldCome join us as we study this powerful parable and learn biblical principles for handling possessions in a way that honors God and prepares us for eternity.

    Study of Job 6:11–15

    Wednesday Night Bible Study – June 3, 2026Text: Job 6:11–15Pastor: Dr. Ernest GroceJoin us this Wednesday evening as Pastor Dr. Ernest Groce continues our study through the book of Job, focusing on Job 6:11–15. In these verses, Job questions how much longer he can endure his suffering and expresses disappointment in the lack of support he has received from his friends. Instead of finding comfort and encouragement, Job feels abandoned in his time of greatest need.This passage highlights the importance of compassion toward those who are hurting. While Job's friends believed they were helping, their words often added to his pain rather than easing his burden. Job's honest response reminds us that people facing trials need understanding, grace, and godly encouragement.At the same time, these verses reveal the limitations of human support and point us to the faithfulness of God. Even when others fail us, the Lord remains a constant source of strength, comfort, and hope.This study will explore:The reality of physical and emotional exhaustionThe importance of compassion toward those who are sufferingHow well-meaning people can sometimes fail to encourage the hurtingThe faithfulness of God when human support falls shortFinding strength and hope in the Lord during difficult seasonsCome join us as we continue our journey through the book of Job and discover valuable lessons about suffering, friendship, compassion, and the sustaining grace of God.

    The Tragedy of Unbelief

    Sunday Evening Service – May 31, 2026 PMText: Mark 6:1–6Title: The Tragedy of UnbeliefPreaching: Dr. Ernest GroceJoin us this Sunday evening as Pastor Dr. Ernest Groce brings a message from Mark 6:1–6 entitled, “The Tragedy of Unbelief.” In this passage, Jesus returns to His hometown of Nazareth, where those who knew Him best refused to believe in Him. Rather than receiving Him as the Son of God, they became offended at Him and allowed their familiarity with Him to become a stumbling block to faith.The people of Nazareth had every opportunity to trust Christ. They had heard His wisdom, witnessed His power, and knew of His mighty works. Yet their hearts remained closed. As a result, they missed the blessings that faith would have brought into their lives.This passage reminds us that unbelief is not merely a lack of information—it is a condition of the heart. The tragedy of Nazareth is that those who knew Jesus best were among those least willing to trust Him.This message will explore:• Why the hardest people to reach are often those who know us best• How familiarity with Christ can become a barrier to faith• Why Jesus never forces Himself upon those who reject Him• How unbelief can limit what God desires to do in our lives• The danger of being offended by God's truth instead of receiving it by faithCome join us as we examine this sobering passage and are challenged to respond to Christ with faith, humility, and obedience rather than skepticism and unbelief. Through this account, we are reminded that God's greatest works are often experienced by those who simply trust Him.
