October 24, 2021 - THE LORD'S PRAYER - Pastor M. Bryan Gantt 

Continuing in the new series on prayer, Pastor Bryan brings important insight into the prayer that Jesus taught His disciples when they ask Him, "Lord, teach us to pray."

October 7, 2021 - The Power of HIs Name - Pastor Michael Gantt

We often sing the chorus "There is Power in the Name of Jesus" but do we really understand exactly what that means, for us, in a day to day world. Pastor Michael Gantt endeavors to bring some clarity to the subject in this week's message, "The Power of His Name."

October 2, 2021 - BURDEN BEARERS - Pastor Michael K. Gantt

Pastor Michael brings a timley message from Galatians 6 expounding upon Paul's plea to the church at Galatia (and to us) to "bear one another's burdens."  There are burdens that are ours and ours alone to bear, there are burdens that are too great to bear alone, and there are burdens that are too great for us to carry even together - those burden's we cast upon the Lord. Great teaching from the apostle Paul.  (There is a definite electrical "hum" over the audio of this file - we have discerned the problem and hope to have it rectified by next week - however it is not terribly distracting from the timeless truths of this passage.)

September 19, 2021 - FROM SONS TO HEIRS - Pastor Michael K Gantt

Jesus said to Nicodemus, "Unless a man is born again, he cannot see the Kingdom of God." Wonderful truth that Jesus came, incarnate in human flesh to wash us in His blood and breathe upon us with His Holy Spirit that we might be Born Again - adopted into the Family of God! We are born as spiritual infants, but our Father's purpose is to grow us into the image of His Son, Huios - a mature son (daughter) ready to walk into his inheritance!

September 5, 2021 - THE FEAST OF TRUMPETS - Pastor Bryan Gantt

Pastor Bryan Gantt on the eve of the Feast of Trumpets brings a powerful message about the sounding of the Last Trumpet and the return of Christ. 

August 29, 2021 - Tshuvah, The Days of Repentance - Pastor Bryan Gantt

Pastor Bryan gives us a background of the important feast days of the Old Testament, bringing us to a reminder that we are approaching the Days of Tshuvah (Days of Repentance). Forty Days of self-examination and repentance are very important on the Jewish calendar and all of those great feast have great implication for the Christian faith as well. 

August 22, 2021 - FAITHFUL - Pastor Bryan Gantt

Last week, drawing from Luke 15 and the story of the prodigal son, Pastor Bryan shared with us about a young man named "Grateful." It was the story of brokenness, rebellion, great sorrow and ultimate redemption. This week, from the same scriptures we learn about his brother - "Faithful." Great truths from a timeless parable. 

August 15, 2021 - GRATEFUL - Pastor Bryan Gantt

Pastor Bryan brings an interesting take on the story of the Prodigal Son (actually part one of two). The question we are confronted with is simple: Are we grateful to our Father for his many blessings or are we far more interested in his hand than in his face. 

August 8 - COULD YOU STAND IN THE GAP FOR THOSE WHO HATE YOU? - Pastor Michael Gantt completes his three part series "Could You? with this challenging question: "Could you stand in the gap (intercede) for those who hate you?" Can you pray for your enemies? Can you ask God to bless those who have cursed you? Jesus did; and He expects us to do as He did. In our own strength we cannot do such a thing, but we can "do all things through Christ who gives us strength." 

August 8, 2021 - COULD YOU STAND IN THE GAP FOR THOSE WHO HATE YOU? (Part 3 of 3) - Pastor Michael Gantt

Pastor Michael continues a three part series entitled COULD YOU? with this final message: COULD YOU STAND IN THE GAP FOR THOSE WHO HATE YOUR? As we look at an increasing hostility from the culture toward the church and Christ followers, the possibility of persecution becomes a probability. Pastor doesn't see this as a thing to be feared, but it is a thing to be faced. But we have been given the ministry of intercession and this message the question: will we be willing to intercede for the very ones who hate us?
