June 9, 2019: The church unified, or how mature can we be?

This week, Pastor Hodge expounded on Ephesians 4:13-15. We see here how the unified Church attains the unity of faith and the knowledge of the Son of God.. A mature church becomes fully grown in Christ. A divided church is a sign of spiritual immaturity.

Think about this over the week to come. Due to an issue, we were unable to record the sermon this week, but should have the problem corrected this coming week. And we hope you have a great week in Christ Jesus!

His presentation on evangelism details the shortcomings we're seeing now, and how to correctly and effectively disciple a new believer in Christ. And it involves something many churches do not do.

June 2, 2019: Spiritual-gifted leadership in the church

This week, Pastor Hodge focused on the book of Ephesians, chapter 4, verses 11 and 12. Sadly, some churches have an identity crisis. They are entertainment centers instead of preaching the Gospel. They don't know who they are or what they are. In these verses, we learn about spiritual leadership gifts in the church, and what the outcome of them are when used properly.

May 12, 2019: Honoring our mothers, or the great value of our females

This week, we honored our mothers on this Mother's Day, and honored God first and foremost by exalting him, and showing how God tells us to love our mothers, wives and Christian women. We also see how mothers, fathers, and Christian adults are to be loving, and how they are to be honored. And, we must learn to honor them, and we see how in part in Ephesians 6:4.What is our challenge for this today? Listen and find out!

We also had Amy Taylor do our children's sermon, and Micah Fagerstrom did our special music. You can hear all of these things here:

May 5, 2019: There is only one body

This week, Pastor Hodge expounds on the book of Ephesians, 4:4-6. His sermon title is "There is only one body, or, the oneness of the church."

In this rather well-known passage, we look at how we are one body with one Spirit, one hope, one faith, one baptism with one Lord, and there is only one God of all. Listen to how this applies to us today.

We also have the Seldals do special music. We pray that you are blessed by both of these service elements. You can hear both of these elements by cutting and pasting this link into your Web browser:
