Cross Of Grace

Don’t surrender your joy. Don’t let go of the hope you have in Christ. Don’t let the fire of the Spirit die – fan it into flame. Take that gift, that calling, that passion of living for Jesus and the joy of serving Jesus, and stoke that fire once again.

A message from Pastor Scott Crook, commemorating Celebrate Life Sunday 2018, called "In God's Image"...

Our hope is not in an event or a circumstance. Our hope is in a person – the person of Jesus Christ. He is the truth we hold dear and hold high. He is the One that changes the way we live. He is the one we hold to – the one who holds onto us. Remember who He is, and who we are in Him. You are part of His family, His household...
