Family Album: Abraham and Isaac

Pastor Craig Carter Since the first of the year, we’ve been reading through the Book of Genesis as a congregation. Then each Sunday, we’re exploring characters we meet in the first book of the Bible. Last week we learned some valuable lessons from an unlikely source – Hagar, an Egyptian servant. She showed us what…

Pastor Craig Carter In life, it’s just a fact that a lot of things just don’t make sense. Here are a few examples: Why is a round pizza cut into triangular pieces then placed in a square box? Why is the person who handles and invests all of your money called a broker? Why do…

Pastor Craig Carter It’s been a year since my mom died and we’re still trying to decide what to do with all of her stuff. We’ve got boxes piled along one wall of our garage and one-by-one we’ve tried to sort through their contents. If you’ve ever done something similar you know it’s a long,…

Develop Great Habits

Pastor Craig Carter How many of you have made a resolution to get in better physical condition this year? How many of you have already broken that resolution? How many of you have given up on the idea long ago and resigned yourself to being flabby and out of shape? I must confess I probably…
