Thoughts from Pastor Ross

We need to continue to be Bereans, reading the Bible to make sure we are following biblical teachers so we aren’t let astray. We are the church. God doesn’t want it to be corrupted by false doctrine. He wants it to be holy. Acts 2:42 says, “They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to […]

In 1 Corinthians 1:10, Paul is exhorting the church in Corinth, which had divided into rival factions, to be of one mind and judgment or affection. Satan wants to divide us so that we won’t be an effective church! The same thing happens in our marriages. Satan wants to split us up and diminish our […]

Dear Church,

As we begin 2023, let’s set our sights on bringing hope to a world that is losing hope. Pray about getting involved in our many opportunities to serve. God will equip you where He leads you. “We are His workmanship, created to do good works that He prepared in advance.” (Ephesians 2:10) Let us […]

Dear Church,

We have a lot to be thankful for! 2022 was an awesome year! We were able to lead missions to:

• Casa Berea and Rancho La Hermosa Orphanage in Primo Tapia, Mexico
• San Jose de la Zorra, Mexico to minister to the Kumaia Indians.
• Malawi, Africa, where we sponsored our first water well, dedicated dozens […]
  

People leave all kinds of legacies. “Leaving a legacy means giving something that will be valued and treasured by those who survive after your death. It requires thought to ensure that any items that have meaning to you will also have meaning to those you designate to inherit them.” In Romans 616, Paul has given […]

We see how God is working to save us and move us to serve in our giftings in Acts 17:26, Ephesians 2:10, and Philippians 2:13. We are born in specific places and at particular times in history so that man may find God. And then He moves through our decisions and circumstances to bring us to […]

It’s important to be unified as a church. After all, we are called to be ministers of reconciliation. When the God of hope fills you with the power of His Holy Spirit and you experience His true peace and joy, that event alone can unify us in the church. We can’t do it without the […]

The Holy Spirit intercedes for us so that we can become more like Jesus. The Spirit prays for us so that in all situations, Father God will continue to work it out so that we will become more like Jesus and give Him glory as the firstborn in the family of God. Look at Colossians […]

Romans 8 tells us that the law of the Spirit has set us free from the law of sin and death, the mind set on the flesh brings death, that when you are being controlled by the power of the Holy Spirit within you, you will have peace, and that you know the Spirit is […]

Do you find yourself obeying the Lord? Do you find yourself wanting to please God every day? Do you find yourself living a peaceful life? Do you find yourself loving God and loving your neighbor? Do you find yourself living with increasing amounts of self-control, patience, and kindness? If you do, that means that you […]
