What are the priorities in your life? Or maybe a better question would be- if I looked closely at your life what would I conclude were your priorities? TV? Facebook? The latest fashion? I’d like to say that health is a great priority in my life. However, if you were a fly on the wall […]
Morals and Values
Morals and Values…..do we even put much stock in these terms ‘nowadays’? I wonder if you asked a young person today for a list of their personal values would they know what you meant let alone have an answer? I don’t mean to pick on young’uns because I think it is actually a good question […]
For Such A Time As This
A couple of weeks ago our Student Ministry had the opportunity to join our amazing Student Leadership Team at an alternative “Winter Conference”, a yearly trip we take as a group. This conference was much different than anything we have done together in the past. Even though it was outside of our comfort zone we […]
Do children really bounce??
I would suppose you may be wondering about the title, but rest assured we will answer the question at hand if children really do bounce. We have often heard the term; those kids are bouncing off the walls. Any parent or caregiver can tell you they have witnessed a child at one time or another […]

No One Feels Alone
We love each other because he loved us first. -1 John 4:19 I recently traveled out of state for my aunt’s funeral. It was a lovely celebration recognizing her life, our love for her, and the fact that she is now worshiping Jesus in Heaven. My cousins, Mindy and Beth, one of my uncles, […]
Love People
What does it mean to “love others”? That is a question I’ve thought about quite a lot over the last few months. I think, as Christians, that is a question we have all had to struggle with at some point or another. Loving others is so very important that Jesus tell us to do it […]
Turn Up The Volume
Each November, as Thanksgiving approaches, the world cues us to be more thankful and churches often remind us of the story of the 10 Lepers. It’s a story found in Luke 17 about 10 men who had leprosy. If you are unfamiliar with leprosy, I caution you about googling it. The pictures can be gruesome. […]
