"Prisoner of My Own Comfort"

Do you realize how phenomenally blessed we are as American’s? In comparison to the entire population of planet earth… we are filthy rich when it comes to our standards of living. Today… 2015… 1/3 of the world makes less than $2/day in wages. I don’t know about you… but I can spend more than that on coffee in one day! (And think it’s a good deal!)

We are a people of comfort.

This week, Pastor Kamron points out that comfort can easily become a prison if we think we are guaranteed it. If we think that comfort is our inheritance from God while still here on earth… we are in trouble. You can’t read the Bible and find a promise of a comfortable lifestyle. (In fact, you will find just the opposite.) Maybe this doesn’t sound like a message you want to hear… but if you love Jesus and want to be obedient to Him, this expectation of comfort needs to be dealt with.

"ALWAYS? thankful"

Yes, this week we will celebrate Thanksgiving. A special day we set aside every year to be... wait for it... thankful. :-) But as usual... God expects MORE from those of us who consider Jesus to be our Lord and Savior!

More. More thankfulness. 

In fact, today's main passage from 1 Thessalonians 5:18 says we are to be thankful in ALL circumstances. Listen to today's message as Pastor Kamron shares how a day of hunting last week shows how much work HE has to do. And we all are probably in the same place of needing to be MORE thankful!

Strong-Willed... Blessing or Curse?

Listen to this Sunday's message as Pastor Shanon shares a message about being STRONG willed. The crazy thing about this characteristic is it can be an amazing blessing... or a crazy curse! The reality of this message is... it's up to you. Are you going to fight AGAINST God... or FOR Him?

"Work It!"

Do you ever FAIL in life? If we are being honest we all must answer, "yes". It's part of life. Especially when your talking about our walk with Jesus... we fail. 

"But it's what we DO with that failure that will define our lives... not the failure itself, but the RESPONSE to that failure."

Listen to today's message as Pastor Kamron shares the answer to failure, repentance. He shares the reality that we are ALL "working out" our salvation according to today's Bible verse. And the biggest failure in our lives is not failing, it's QUITTING when we fail. Don't quit. Go to Jesus. He's waiting to forgive you right now.

"My Life/The Good News"

The things we experience and get excited about are the things we will passionately share with our friends and our family. If you have an amazing weekend and something really special happened, maybe you met a really famous person... on Monday you are going to share it right away with your co-workers or fellow students at school. We will tell everyone about "experiences" that are noteworthy and exciting. 

If that is true, then what keeps us from sharing Jesus with everyone we know? Why do we seem to limit our discussions of what should be the focus of our lives? (Are we "experiencing" Jesus daily?)

Maybe, as Pastor Kamron shares in today's message... maybe we are failing to "experience" all God has to offer us. Maybe we are failing to recognize Jesus is alive and present in our life today! Listen and see if this is something you need to pray about in YOUR life too.

"God's STILL Amazing"

Pastor Kamron saw the "Ore Dock" shown in the picture recently for the first time in Marquette, MI. It's a neat part of history even though today it sits abandoned and unused. Funny how we tend to relegate once coveted and necessary things to the history books.

But one thing we can't afford to do that with is God. We can't look at the Bible and think "Wow, God WAS so powerful and amazing back then..." Today's main passage is Hebrews 13:8 (NLT) which says:

"Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever."

We know that. We claim that. We repeat that... but do we LIVE that? Do we believe Jesus is just as powerful in our lives today as He was a few thousand years ago as we read in the Bible? We should. We must. The world around us doesn't need a history lesson. They need to see that Jesus is alive and moving in us today. Let's introduce them to Jesus.
