October 12, 2025 - Brother Dennis Coffman filled the pulpit today with a message about truth. What is truth? How do we recognize truth? Are we afraid that accepting the truth will convict us? It will. Ephesians 2:1-5. Biblical truth is spelled out in John 18:37-38, John 17:1-3, John 14:6, John 1:1-14, Acts 4:12. "Because of his great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions—it is by grace you have been saved." We are saved when we accept Jesus as God's gift for our salvation. We must be willing to share that truth with others.
October 5, 2025 -Brother Dennis Coffman preached from the book of Esther and Jeremiah 29:4-7 to show how God used His people to work out His sovereign plan. The Jewish nation lived in captivity for many years. To protect them and help them to prosper and increase in numbers, He taught them to look after the welfare of the communities they were in. And to do what is right, regardless. Mordecai and Esther protected the ruler Xerxes from assassins and later saved the Jewish people under his rule from annihilation because they were willing to step out and do whatever was needed.
There are many examples in the Bible of God using people to work out his sovereign will: Moses, Abraham, Noah among others. To be a part of God's plan, we need to trust Him in all things, be humble and be willing to serve.
September 28, 2025 - Pastor Dallas Huston gave his farewell message this morning after over seventeen years of service. He taught that we are responsible for who we become. Success is not dependent on what you have but who you have in your life. The depth of life is much more important than its length.
The Bible is your guide to what's right. Just do your best. Treat others like you want to be treated. Be committed and courageous. Don't be judgemental. The most important things in your life are Christ and your character. September 28, 2025 -
September 21, 2025 - Brother Dennis Coffman brought the message today from Romans 5:1-11. We have been justified through faith. We have peace and stand now in grace. We have hope in the glory of God. God is in control. We glory in our sufferings because they bring perseverance, then character, and hope. We have the promise of heaven.
When we were still in sin, Christ died for us. Christ's blood saves us from God's wrath. We are reconciled. We are in the right relationship with God. We are justified by faith.
Grace: God's Riches At Christ's Expense
September 14, 2025 - Pastor Dallas Huston talked about when he first shared his testimony after being saved and the many times since. Each time was difficult, but it was rewarding because he knew it was what Jesus wanted. Each Christian has a testimony: what you were before Jesus; how you came to know Him; and what He is doing with your life now. You don't need to speak before a crowd. One on one witnessing is the place to start. It's telling a person about the Lord. Pray each day that you might be willing to share your faith if the opportunity arises.
Acts 1:8, John 3:16, Matthew 28:16-20
