We have been called to participate in the greatest celebration ever known to mankind. Nothing trumps (no pun intended) our call to celebrate Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory. The world cannot offer anything greater than Jesus, but believe me they have tried. Daniel, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego were told...
Last week we asked the question, “Where do we go from here?” Here is the answer, keep on keeping on! Jesus is meeting with another group of disciples, and just like last time they really don’t know its Jesus. He shows up in His own familiar style but with a...
The entire narrative of the Bible is about redemption. God creates and places man in Eden and instructs him on how to live a life of dominion. The first man Adam is given a wife and for a while they enjoy life together in the garden. Before too long satan...

Because of past generations and their struggles, we now enjoy life as we’ve never known it before. We stand on the shoulders of these giants and our vantage point is greater all because of them. We attest that the greatest generation is the ones who stand between slavery and freedom....
Death has a profound impact on all who are touched by its unyielding grip. As we celebrate Black History, we are also in the midst of the Lenten Season. Dually both remind us of the painful price of freedom and liberation. In our text for this morning, Isaiah tells us...
The word of God has been described as a mirror. When looking into it we see a reflection of God’s intention for our lives. In numbers 11:29 Moses said, “I wish that all the Lord’s people were prophets and that the lord would put His Spirit upon them all.” What...
David was held in disdain by his own wife as he danced before the Lord. David exercised his right to celebrate the goodness of God in recovering the Ark of the Covenant. Michal mistook her husband's actions as something vulgar rather than an intense expression of personal praise. How do...
