Aligned To Pray

January 28, 2024 • Dr. Curt Dodd • John 14:13–14, John 15:5–8, John 16:23–24

My job as a pastor is to make sure that God's people are equipped to do the work of ministry. One of the things that I am charged with doing is teaching people how to pray. With many of us, we wonder why our prayers don't get answered. Today, I hope that our focus on being aligned to pray will challenge you and encourage you. I pray for the light to go on in your hearts and in your lives so that you can align your prayers with God’s will and, as a result, see your prayers answered.

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.
