SERMON SUMMARY Today we finish our series on the life of King David. As we have discovered, David was an incredible leader and valiant warrior and he had a real heart for God! But David came from a dysfunctional family, and some of that dysfunction followed him when he grew up and established his own…
SERMON SUMMARY David is a study in contrasts. He was a man after God’s own heart, but like us, he was capable of great sin. Adultery, murder, deception—the list goes on and on. But from this story about David and Bathsheba we also learn that God pursues us to forgive and restore (2 Samuel 11).…
SERMON SUMMARY In this message. we find David on the run as Saul seeks to end his life. From this period in David’s life, we learn about the importance trusting God when we find ourselves in a place, we didn’t choose. David had become a great military general. As a result of his military successes,…
SERMON SUMMARY In this message we discover the source of David’s courage in facing the Philistine giant named Goliath.

SERMON SUMMARY This is the first of a five-week series of messages on the life of King David. We are going to begin our examination of David’s life when he was just a young boy. In 1 Samuel 16:1, we see that God rejected Saul as King of Israel, and he instructed the prophet Samuel…

SERMON SUMMARY We are in the middle of a four-part sermon series on how to experience financial freedom, and today we are going to look at the third principle: learning to spend money wisely. Proverbs 21:20 says, “The wise have wealth and luxury, but fools spend whatever they get.” Financial freedom doesn’t require great wealth,…
SERMON SUMMARY Because God gives generously, we should give generously (1 Timothy 6:17-19). God wants us to be generous. And when we are, God seems to multiply our resources, enabling us to give even more. This principle of increase is found throughout the Scriptures (Luke 6:38, Proverbs 3:9-10, 2 Corinthians 9:6-11). Giving is a supernatural…
SERMON SUMMARY Today we are beginning a new series of messages entitled “Four Steps to Financial Freedom.” Knowing the truth about money is the key to experiencing financial freedom, and perhaps the most foundational truth God reveals to us is the fact that God is the ultimate owner of all that we possess (Haggai 2:8).…
