Seeing Clearly
In this powerful sermon, Pastor Roscoe shows how having a pure heart helps us see God more clearly in our everyday lives. Using Jesus’ teachings from the Sermon on the Mount, he points out that real happiness and connection with God don’t come from just following rules or looking good on the outside — it starts with what’s going on inside our hearts. When our hearts are pure, we’re able to recognize God working around us and experience a deeper sense of peace and joy.

We’ve all heard the beloved song and some of us even know the words, but do you know why we say grace is amazing? The story of grace is woven like a red thread from the very first story in the Bible all the way to the last. Grace is what sets the Bible apart from every other faith. The message of grace is scandalous and even threatening to the self-righteous. At some point in our life, we will need it and at other times we will be asked to give it.

Paddling Together
Jesus invited His followers to fish for a greater prize than just a meal. He invited His disciples to go fishing for the hearts and lives of people. But for many followers of Jesus today they think the only way to fish is with verbal skills. What if fishing involved so much more? What if there are other ways we can all work together to promote the gospel?Whether you’re an introvert or an extrovert join us this month as we look at how we all can be involved in moving the message of Jesus forward.
