Church-Wide Prayer Gathering, Who Did Jesus Die For?, Speaking at Scott's Grove Church (Pastoral Emphasis for 11/4)

I would like to encourage everyone to vote on Tuesday (if you didn't early vote). Research the candidates, issues, think biblically, pray for wisdom, and exercise your right to vote. Remember your true allegiance to not to an elephant or donkey but to the Lamb!

After you've exercised your right to vote, come out and exercise your right to pray to our Heavenly Father. The next Church-Wide Prayer Gathering is Tuesday, November 6th, from 7:00pm to 8:00pm. Everyone is invited to join us as we focus on specific prayer needs. If you are not able to attend but have prayer requests, you can submit them online.


Did Jesus die for everyone? The answer seems simple enough but this question has been hotly debated throughout church history. Did Jesus’ death merely make salvation possible for everyone or did it actually accomplish the work of redemption? Join us for our next Bible Study, "Who Did Jesus Die For?" starting on Wednesday, November 7th, at 7:00pm as we tackle this question by looking at the Doctrine of Definite Atonement.

On Thursday, November 8th, I'll be speaking at Scott’s Grove Church (2216 NC Hwy 55, Cary) for their Pastoral Anniversary Service at 7:30pm. The MZ Gospel Choir will accompany me. Everyone is invited to attend. I would definitely appreciate your prayers.

Sadly, today is Sis. Jackie Wooten's last Sunday with us. She'll be moving to Goldsboro to care for family. She has been a long-time, faithful member serving as an usher, singing in the choir, and directing the JA Lewis Sunshine Choir. She will be greatly missed.

Responding to the Flooding, Christmas in July Food Drive, New Sermon Series (Pastoral Emphasis for 7/13)

Responding to the Flooding All of us are painfully aware of the devastating flooding that struck our nation recently. As of Friday evening, the confirmed death toll in Texas has risen to 129, with at least 150 individuals still missing across the state. Our hearts are heavy, and we grieve for the lives lost and the families enduring unimaginable pain. One of the first things people tend to do is look for someone to blame. Was it the fault of the warning system not being early enough? Was it the fault of the government (state and federal)? Was it the fault of God? If God is so good, why do we suffer with natural disasters like flooding that takes the lives of seemingly innocent people like young children? The reality is that the fault lies with us. Humanity decided to rebel against the Creator God, thereby, ushering in sin and the fall from God's perfect creation. Natural disasters happen because we live in a fallen world ravaged by sin. Natural disasters like these floods are trag...
