Their are many reasons given in attempts to disprove the resurrection of Christ, from mass hallucinations to claims that Jesus didn’t really die upon the cross. However, the gospel accounts make clear that Jesus truly was executed in the most brutal fashion, died, and was buried in a tomb. However, 3 days later, the most extraordinary news […]
In this sermon Pastor Dave Leandre preaches through Judges chapter 7 – the story of Gideon’s miraculous victory over the Midianites. This epic victory is a beautiful illustration of a profound gospel truth that the Apostle Paul teaches us about in 2 Corinthians 4:5-10. Though we are weak, afflicted, and outnumbered, God mercifully has given us “the light […]
Jesus, in his dialogue with Nicodemus, reveals the purpose of this particular incident in the Israelites’ history as a preface to arguably the most well-known verse in all of Scripture: “Just as Moses lifted up the snake in the wilderness, so the Son of Man must be lifted up, that everyone who believes may have eternal life in him” […]

We must discover the real meaning of Christmas – what “Christmas spirit” is really all about. And to do that we must first understand who Jesus is, since it’s all about Him. Last week we stated: “in order to seek him you must first believe he existed.” This week, we will focus on the reason behind Jesus […]
The story of David facing Goliath, slaying his “tens of thousands”, is arguably one of the most well-known in the entire Bible, both inside and outside of the church, especially when applied to our lives and facing our own giants. However, we are not the primary focus of this story; Jesus is the true and better […]
“Now in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and silver but also of wood and clay, some for honorable use, some for dishonorable. Therefore, if anyone cleanses himself from what is dishonorable, he will be a vessel for honorable use, set apart as holy, useful to the master of the house, ready […]
