Stewardship: Comes from Love
The concept of Stewardship is as old as earth itself. From the ancient past to the present, God asks humanity to Steward His possessions. We often forget that we have this responsibility. Sin makes us think that everything belongs to us. Join us in person or online as we explore the Biblical truth of Stewardship and our relationship to the Owner of the Universe. Scripture: Psalm 24:1, Malachi 3:8, 1 Corinthians 9:12-16, Genesis 1:26-28, Genesis 2:15 “Stewardship: Comes from Love”…
The Via Dolorosa
Friends, as we conclude this foray into the idea that Jesus is THE PROMISE coming down the DUSTY ROADS of our lives, and as we have seen it illustrated in the lives of those who lived and were impacted by Jesus, we must not forget the ultimate DUSTY ROAD of human existence. The Message of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, is that He (Jesus) walked the DUSTY ROAD of Sin and Death that I should have walked. Join us as…
The Sanctuary – Part 2 – The Plan of Redemption in the NT Sanctuary
Two weeks ago, I presented some thoughts about the Mosaic sanctuary and what a spiritually perceptive Hebrew might have thought about the sanctuary rituals. Within the sphere of the OT itself only inferences can be made as to the meaning of the sanctuary, its furnishings and its rituals since there is no discussion of its symbolism. Were it not for the insights of the NT the Israelite form of worship would remain obscure. Today we will discuss the sanctuary and…
The Sanctuary – Part 1
In the sanctuary service, God met His people were they were. In a world hopelessly marred by sin and after spending over 400 years in physical slavery to Egypt, the Lord redeemed His people and in the sanctuary service He enlarged their understanding of salvation. Fully a third of Exodus is devoted to the organization and construction of the Israelite sanctuary. But the national religion is not to be regarded as an entirely new and different system. It was an…
Costly Grace
What does grace cost? The high price of grace makes our repentance possible. God asks for obedience because He knows what will keep us safe and fulfilled. He also knows that sin is a part of our existence and grace and forgiveness are needed. We need to recognize that the there is a cost to sin…someone pays the ransom… Christ paid yours. What will your response be? Scripture: 1 Chronicles 21, Exodus 30:12-15, 1 Corinthians 6:20, 1 Peter 1:14-15 “Costly…
Jesus Loves Me
When was the last time you sang “Jesus loves me”? When was the last time you believed that Jesus actually loves you? Join us as we dive into the reality that Jesus is head over heals in love with each of us. God emptied all Heaven, because of his incredible love for us.

God’s Gift
As Christ was about to complete or fulfill the old covenant, He established a New Covenant which we call the Lord’s Supper. This GIFT reminds us that he redeemed us by His blood and set us free to live in Him. We do not have to carry our load of sin. We can leave it as the cross because of Jesus. Scripture: Matthew 26:27-30, John 6:35,51, 1 Corinthians 11:24-26, Romans 6:23 “God’s Gift” preached by Pastor Don Bryan on May…
Love Revealed
1 John 4:16 declares that God is Love. The very essence of who God is, is Love. Jesus came to show us the Father. To show us God’s Love for humanity. He demonstrated this incredible love by going to the cross on our behalf. When we talk about Amazing Grace, we should all kneel in amazement of God grace expressed in and through Jesus. Scripture: John 15:13 “Love Revealed” preached by Pastor Don Bryan on January 11th, 2020 at the…
