June 30, 2016 • Pastor Lloyd Pulley • Matthew 6:9–15
This week we’ve been exploring the great privilege we have in being able to talk with God - to pour out our concerns and requests. And to enjoy God for who He is. Too many Christians approach prayer as a "wish list" of things they want God to provide. That is not what God has in mind! Join us in Matthew chapter six.

June 19, 2016 • Pastor Lloyd Pulley • 1 Peter 2:11–12
June 17, 2016 • Pastor Lloyd Pulley • Joshua 17:14–18
Ephraim and Manasseh. These two guys were sons of Joseph, one of the greatest men in the bible. They were responsible for the safety and well being of hundreds of thousands of people. And they had a choice to make – accept the status quo, or trust God and make a better life for their people. It’s the same challenge fathers face today – allow the culture we live in to take over, or stand firm and fight back. Setting a good example for our kids is a good place to start.
