Celebrate Christmas with us!

What do you do when you aren't feeling the joy of the Christmas season? You're not alone. For many it is a very tough and even painful time of year.

All the believers were united in heart and mind.  And they felt that what they owned was not their own, so they shared everything they had. . . There were no needy people among them, because those who owned land or housed would sell them and bring the money to the apostles to give to those in need.  (Acts 4: 32-35)

Today Pastor Keith talks about the different names that we carry and the importance of them.

This week we celebrate with those making their public declaration of Christ through baptism.  Here is a sampling of their testimonies.

Has the time of extraordinary displays of the Spirit passed away?
And the short answer to that is, “No.�

The fact is that notwithstanding the high hopes many people had, things aren’t working out at a level they’d expected with this Christianity thing.  To their way of thinking the product has failed to produce.  And I’d like to suggest that the reason why is they have not fully plugged in to the FLOW of the Spirit.
