America’s Godly Heritage
On the eve of our National Independence, Pastor Gary delivers a message about the influence of Christianity upon our Founding Fathers which ultimately shaped our nation. Although the United States of America is a country that values the freedom of religion—the freedom to practice whatever faith, or no faith at all—when it comes to the […]
The Ministry of Truth
The Church in America has become weak, ineffective, cowardly and has strayed from preaching the full counsel of God to the ecclesia (aka church). The Church no longer holds the line of truth, not because the world took it, but because we gave it. To reclaim the ground of truth, we need to be holy grounded in […]
Living Water – The Holy Spirit
The Holy Spirit is the third person of the Trinity—one God who reveals Himself in three persons: God the Father, God the Son (Jesus), and God the Holy Spirit. In John 7, Jesus introduces us to the Holy Spirit by referring to Him as “living water.” In today’s study Pastor Gary teaches about the person […]
When Bread Is Not Enough
Sometimes people look to Jesus for what He can do for them instead of simply for who He is. We often want Him to “perform” for us – to meet our needs and to answer our prayers – but do we seek His face as much as we seek His hand? Pastor Gary tackles John […]

In John 4, Jesus has a divine appointment with a woman at a well that will be life-changing for her. She had been on a search for love—married five time and living with a sixth man who was not her husband. As only Jesus can do, he tenderly performs heart surgery on her by exposing […]
Spiritual Birth
There is a difference between PHYSICAL birth and SPIRITUAL birth. Physical birth was the will and decision of others, but spiritual birth is your choice. There was a Jewish man named Nicodemus who didn’t understand spiritual birth. Like so many people today, people are confused and curious about Jesus. The conversation between Jesus and Nicodemus […]
God Has Saved the Best for Last
The first miracle that Jesus performed during His earthly ministry was the changing of water into wine at the wedding feast in Cana. No one was healed, no one was raised from the dead, and no one was fed by a few loaves and fish. This miracle was purely for the enjoyment of the wedding […]
The Identity and Deity of Jesus
There are many opinions in the world today about who Jesus is. Some say He is just a prophet, some say He is a created being, some don’t believe in Him at all. But exactly who is Jesus? The apostle John goes into great detail in John 1 about the true identity and deity of […]
