Sermons

Dear Church,

This Sunday we have a very special couple coming to share with us.  Andy and Kay Martin have been missionaries with Missionaries in Europe for many years. It was their job to help IMB Missionaries walk with God  as they sought to love people toward Christ.

This Sunday they will expand on what I touched on last week. “HOW TO OVERCOME YOUR INDEPENDENCE FROM GOD” . This is pretty important.  Remember what Jesus said John 15:4-5 – Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in me. I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing.

I really want you to know how to abide so you can bear the fruit of love.Come hear these special guests as they teach us how to remember God. I can’t wait .
Be there.

Blessings,
Joe
