What Every Believer Needs - Part 1

January 7, 2024 • Dr. Curt Dodd • Acts 14:21–28

In today’s key passage in the book of Acts, we learn that Paul and Barnabas had been on a missionary journey, and God used them to plant many churches. It was an exciting journey and a very successful journey for these two men. They had two different kinds of ministry. One ministry was to the lost, winning people to faith in Christ. The other ministry was developing those who were brand-new believers. In this particular section of Scripture, we find some important things about what every believer needs, and we’re going to break down each of those needs into more detail.

The Resurrection Matters

March 31, 2024 • Dr. Curt Dodd • Matthew 28:1–10

There are many things that matter in life. Some of these are: Friendships. Family. Time. Memories. But more than anything else, the resurrection matters! In this message, I will share several reasons why the resurrection really matters so that together we can gain a better understanding of why Easter is such a powerful day for us to celebrate.

The Wonderful Cross

March 24, 2024 • Dr. Curt Dodd • Mark 15:16–20

Nothing is more important for believers than understanding the power of the wonderful cross. Think about those two words, “wonderful” and “cross.” Those two words don't really fit together because the cross was an instrument of death. That is what the Romans used to crucify criminals along a major road, as a warning to those who would resist the Roman government. It was an object of death. But for us as believers, what Jesus did on the cross was very powerful. In fact, if the Gospel is really to be preached, the cross of Christ must be lifted up. You cannot have the Gospel without the cross. In today’s message, we’re going to look at why the cross is so wonderful to those of us who follow Jesus, even though that was never the Roman government’s intent.

What Should The Last Generation Do?

February 11, 2024 • Dr. Curt Dodd • Matthew 28:18–20

In today’s message, we are going to be focusing on the words of the Great Commission. These verses are the walking orders of the church. In the last several decades, the church has embraced the community of business leaders who have bought into the need for a vision statement. We need to have a mission statement. We need to have a purpose and a direction. And while I understand the value of that, we already have a mission and a purpose, and that is the Great Commission. It was the very thing that set the first generation of believers on course, therefore it should also place the last generation on course.
