Avoiding Heretics!

Get In On The Secret!
In this message, which starts at 21:49 of the video, we look at how the key requirements of Joy-Hope and Love- differ from what our culture attempts to teach. And why the confusion between the very different emotions of joy and happiness will often cause many to never discover the secret to joy that is so plainly taught in scripture.
Scripture Must Be Complete!
In this video (message starts at 17:49) the practical application of Ephesians 4:15; (Speaking the truth in love for the purpose of maturity) is the basis of an appeal to the church to teach the fullness of the Great Commision's message including, "and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you."

Part 1: Are You Ready for God's Love and Grace
In This message we ask, "Are you ready to receive the boundless Love and Grace of God?"

Christianity Isn't Easy
One of the most difficult of our instructions of Jesus is that we should "Love Our Enemies." (Matthew 5:43-47). Understanding that message and the Gospel's message of Social Justice is critical to understanding and fulfilling our goal of being like our Lord. This video also includes and invitation to Home Communion and a compelling testimony of God's answer to prayer.
Your Standing With God Is Everything
In this message we discuss how, "Keeping our eyes upon Jesus" and knowing that our true character and happiness lie in maintaining our relationship with God rather than our image before men will result in our greatest joy and purpose. The message ties in with our VBS theme of, "I Am A Worshiper" taught though the teaching of Anthony and Tiffany Salerno's Children's Album, "I Am A Worshiper."
And This Is How We Should Pray
The extended introduction for the in depth study of the Lord's Prayer considers the prevailing theme of Christian discipleship that we are built up in our faith by overcoming challenges in partnership with the Holy Spirit through our healthy and obedient relationships with the Spirit of the Lord and His Body which is the Church.
Fireside Chats- A more intimate Word of God
Fireside #2; Do Not Let Your Hearts Be Troubled
In this video Pastor Ron recaps the "Fireside 1' video, "Christian Grace" to answer questions asked from viewers. Following that recap he leads the viewers through an examination of the disciples thoughts and the reaction of Jesus as indicated in John 14:1-4. This reflection on that passage will give comfort to those who often or occasionally feel that they fall short in their walk with God. Some audio and video difficulties occurred during the recording of this video, but hopefully they do not detract significantly from its message.
Christian Freedom in Babylon
In this message we look at the devastating damage of "Cheap Grace" on the effectiveness of the church in creating positive change and resisting negative change in society. Our message is a challenge to be the salt and the light of the world and not to shrink from the conflicts before us.
Advent 4; The Unfathomable Love of Father God
In this video Faith and Father God become part of the 'Continuum' of the Advent Wreath's; Hope, Peace, Joy, Love and Christ. The discussion of the 'Continuum includes a deeper understanding of the levels of love, so that the disciple may apply the teachings of 1 Corinthians 13 to better communicate the love of God. The message starts at 17:14 in the service.
Why God?
This message is intended to support those who desire to have ready a Christian response to the question, "Since God is everywhere, why is attending a church necessary?" For those who desire to be able to respond with more than their personnal testimony of their hope and faith in Jesus, the message offers a sound scriptural foundation on why church attendance is so important to Christian faithfulness. Good information, from scripture, for future conversations with those who claim that Jesus is
