Every Sunday, we gather corporately to sing together. But have you ever wondered why? What does God uniquely intend for his people to accomplish or gain as we gather together each week to worship Him through song?...
Many people have an impulse these days to rise up and do something about what’s happening in the world. But often, we are unaware what we can or should do about a given issue. Few of us are actually in a position to change something or make a difference on global, social issues, but we know intuitively that doesn’t mean we should just sit back and do nothing. So what should we do? What can we do?...
We are not the first generation to feel very strongly and passionately about our issues. But it sure seems that the political and cultural climate of our day has created an atmosphere of intense “convictions” over things that should engender far more discussion than the knee-jerk cancellations that are the new normal. But the fact that the Bible does not directly tell us what to do on some things should help us keep our position in its proper place. When we do that, unity will be preserved and the gospel will enjoy a place at the center of Christian fellowship, where it belongs....
“Walk in a manner worthy of the calling to which you have been called, with all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another in love, eager to maintain the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.” Eph. 4:1-3 ...
Perhaps like many of you, I swallowed hard and felt sick to my stomach a few times yesterday as I learned that the benchmark price for crude oil fell below zero for the first time in history.

Keep ReadingMartin Luther, when faced with an epidemic in his own day (hundreds of years before any knowledge of bacteria or virus), responded so wisely: "I shall ask God mercifully to protect us. Then I shall fumigate, help purify the air, administer medicine and take it. I shall avoid places and persons where my presence is not needed in order not to become contaminated and thus ...

Keep ReadingWe are so looking forward to being able to gather once again for corporate worship, discipleship groups, church dinners, etc.!!! The elders began to examine how and when we could start meeting together again on Sundays a couple of weeks ago, just prior toGovernorAbbott talking about opening up Texas again. We wanted you to know that we dearly value you as our church family...
