Thoughts from Pastor Ross

The Greek word for “God” in Acts 4:24 means “absolute Master”, an uncommonly used Greek word for God in the New Testament. Don’t you want Him on your side?! The absolute master of the universe! We are not talking about a fictional character like an Avenger or some super hero. This is the Lord who […]

The centurion in Matthew 8:5-13 tells Jesus to just say the word and his servant will be healed because he recognizes who He is! Jesus has authority to heal because He is the Son of God! He reiterates this in Matthew 28:18. Then Jesus gives His disciples the authority to heal in Matthew 10:1 and […]

They will know we are Christians by our love, unity, community, generosity, joy, sincerity, and favor. It shows God’s presence, enabling, and kindness coming through in our lives, thanks to the fruits of the Spirit described in Acts 2:44-47 and Galatians 5:22-23. God’s kindness leads to repentance. People repent. They change their mind about Jesus […]

Where are you? Are you skeptical? Do you believe in miracles? Do you believe Jesus can heal today? Lee Strobel’s new book, The Case For Miracles, documents modern miracles that will stir you to tell the world about Jesus! God is moving miraculously to draw the lost to Himself. Jesus is appearing in person to […]

Jesus died for the whole world. We need to let them know! Millions are waiting right now to hear that they can find forgiveness for their sins! They won’t know unless we go.
I just got back from Malawi. We spent two solid weeks traversing the bush and showing the Jesus Film. We never saw one […]

As we grow in our love for Jesus Christ, we will naturally want to pray to Him all day and in all kinds of situations. I was thinking about this the other day as I was driving around, running errands, going to Trader Joe’s, taking my daughter Kate to the ballpark […]

This is when we take time to pray and set ourselves apart to follow God’s will.
Jesus prayed this way the night before His crucifixion. In Matthew 26:39, we read that Jesus “…fell on His face and prayed, saying, “My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass from Me; yet not as I […]

It could be an evening meal. It could be lunch. In fact, God wants the sacred to be blended into all areas of our lives as we commune with each other and remember Jesus and why He died for us on the Cross.

Brother Lawrence in The Practice Of the Presence of God said, “He […]

We all need encouragement, don’t we? People can be so discouraging. Especially people who are not walking with Christ. God wants us to fellowship. Satan doesn’t! Being around Christians will give us a lift because they will come to us with a heavenly perspective. That’s why it’s important for all of us to be […]

We’ve all seen the images. The cowboy riding off into the sunset. The picture of the guy on his mountain bike on the edge of a mesa in Monument Valley, Arizona. That’s cool every once in a while. But God doesn’t want us to be lone rangers. To pray, yes. To be alone with God, […]
