Hast thou no wound?
No wound, no scar?
Yet as the Master shall the servant be,
And, pierced are the feet that follow Me;
But thine are whole: can he have followed far
Who has no wound nor scar?
Amy Carmichae
Will you let God do a new thing in you? |11-10-24 | Hebrews 7:11-24
November 10, 2024 • Dr. Ken Lang • Hebrews 7:11–24
Remember the advertising slogan, "New and Improved?" The old product was good, but this is even better. God did that with Christ. Isaiah said, "Remember not the former things nor consider the things of old. Behold, I am doing a new thing." (Isaiah 43:18-19) Christ wants to do something new in you!
Is Jesus Call You? | 11-3-24 | Mark 10:46-52
November 3, 2024 • Dr. Ken Lang • Mark 10:46–52
When Jesus met Saul of Tarsus on the road to Damascus, he said, "Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting me?" Saul responded, "Who are you Lord?" (Acts 9:3-6) Jesus called out to Saul and he responded. Is Jesus calling you?? Shouldn't you respond???

Have you ever had someone in your life that you knew would have your back? No matter what happened, they would defend you. That is who Christ is! "But if anyone does sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous." (1 John 2:2) . Christ will always be on your side.

It's been said that a person can live 40 days without food, 4 days without water, 4 minutes without air, but only 4 seconds without hope! Where is your hope? "Waiting for our blessed hope, the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ!" (Titus 2:13)
What kind of fruit are you producing? | 10-13-24 | Hebrews 6:1-12
October 13, 2024 • Dr. Ken Lang • Hebrews 6:1–12
Imagine a garden left unattended? What kind of crops can you expect to harvest? To harvest fruits or vegetables requires care and effort. A garden left to itself will only produce a garden of weeds. By this my Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit and so prove to be my disciples. (John 15:8)
Do you want ordinary or extraordinary? | 10-6-24 | John 2:1-11

Christ said, "If anyone thirsts, let him come to me and drink. Whoever believes in me, as the Scripture has said, ‘Out of his heart will flow rivers of living water.” Christ alone can satisfy our thirst because he was thirsty for us. (John 19:28)
What are you going to be when you grow up? | 9-29-24 | Hebrews 5:11-14
September 29, 2024 • Dr. Ken Lang • Hebrews 5:11–14
A group of tourists visiting a picturesque village walked by an old man sitting beside a fence. In a rather patronizing way, one tourist asked him, “Were any great men born in this village?” The old man replied, “Nope, only babies.”
We can't remain as a baby and become a person of influence - greatness requires growth in Christ.

If you had the opportunity of selecting your surgeon, who would you choose? The first one is a recent graduate with very little experience and the second one has 20 years of experience and a stellar record of successful procedures. The choice is obvious. So, when it comes to someone who has the answer to death, wouldn't you choose the person who rose from the dead? Christ is the victor over death!
What does Spirit-filled living look like? | 9-15-24 | Galatians 6:1-10
September 15, 2024 • Pastor Stephen • Galatians 6:1–10
Galatians 6 “talks about how the community of faith operates when the Spirit is leading …life in the Spirit involves healthy relationships within the body of Christ. It does not involve conceit or envy, but a life of love.” David Platt

How important are names? Revelation 2 states, He will give a white stone with a new name on it. Think of that. A name given to us by God Himself. That is exciting and gives me resolve to press in and finish my race with joy.
In this political year, how can I best impact my world? | 8-25-24 | Hebrews 4:14-16

When Nehemiah was confronted with the fact that Jerusalem was in ruins, he prayed. He prayed a prayer of praise, repentance, confession, and petition. Our nation is heading in that direction; time for us to pray! "I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all people." (1 Timothy 2:1)
Are you ignoring the most important thing?| 8-18-24 | Hebrews | 4:12-13
August 18, 2024 • Dr. Ken Lang • Hebrews 4:12–13
Our culture values education. In fact, we pressure our kids to go to college when some would be better served by vocational education. There is one thing that is absolutely essential though, an education in the Scriptures. President Teddy Roosevelt said, "A thorough knowledge of the Bible is worth more than a college education."
Are you tired? Do you need a break? | 8-11-24 | Hebrews 4:1-11
August 11, 2024 • Dr. Ken Lang • Hebrews 4:1–11
We live in a 24 - 7 world. Most have an overpacked schedule. Even Jesus needed a break. When Jesus felt overwhelmed he said to his disciples, "Come away for a while and rest." (Mark 6:31) Rest helps us to reorient and recharge so that we can be more productive otherwise. So, take five and thrive!
Are you going to finish? | 8-4-24 | Hebrews 3:7-16
August 4, 2024 • Dr. Ken Lang • Hebrews 3:7–16
Becoming a Navy Seal - special operations warrior - is a very difficult thing to do. Only about 25% of all those who enter the program finish. They are the elites of the elites. Paul said, "I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith." (2 Timothy 4:7) He crossed the finish line - will you?
