Looking for some fun things for your kids to do this summer?   We’ll be having a free basketball clinic, and an Amazing Wonders Aviation VBS.  We’ll also have a hiking trip planned, a day out for the whole family at Waldameer and Water World and more!  Check out our calendar to some of the fun things we have planned.

Churches, as well as individual Christians, endure seasons of humbling, seasons of weakness and of relative ineffectiveness as a result of human failures but also at the hand of God . It is through these humblings that God plants seeds of renewal and revival as the focus of our hearts and eyes is turned from trusting in ourselves to trusting in God…

When we look around at the culture of which we are part, there’s not a whole lot to make one’s heart ‘exultant’. There is however ample material for prayer! As we began our series on prayer this week, I felt I would be remiss to allow a Sunday to go by without addressing President Obama’s public affirmation of so-called gay marriage last…

Every child of God faces affliction in life, but can we all say with David: “It is good for me that I was afflicted”? One of the most spiritually dangerous things that we can do is place God on the outside of our afflictions and see Him in either an uncaring or non-causing position in relation to our struggles. No, not every…

Never mind those popular dieting terms: “portion size”, “portion control”, “portion management”, etc. When it comes to God we don’t just get a portion of Him; we get ALL of Him–He IS our portion! While our small minds can’t comprehend the totality of God, He is the possession of all those who through faith are possessed by Him as Redeemer. Click here…

You’ve heard the old saying “A man is only as good as his word.” Well, the same is true of God. David certainly knew a thing or two about the promises of God. He knew enough to know that his life was empty and meaningless apart from God’s promises and he staked his existence on the firm belief that God was indeed…

No Christian would argue that the resurrection of Christ is not an important historical fact. But what gives it such significance? I make the case in this message that what gives the resurrection of Jesus it’s legitimacy and keeps it from the scrap heap of religious superstitions is the equally important fact that Jesus predicted His resurrection on several occasions and that…

Tired of settling for a “value meal” spirituality when you know there is a far more satisfying feast awaiting you? If so, one of the greatest avenues to delighting in the deliciousness of God is the discipline of meditating on Scripture. Unlike simply reading the Bible and unlike simply listening to sermons, meditation upon the words of the Bible is the God-appointed…

Goodbyes can be some of the most heart-wrenchingly difficult human interactions, but they can also be some of the most important and empowering! The time has come for Elijah to leave the earth and be carried on a chariot of fire to heaven, but before he departs, the old prophet gives his younger assistant Elisha an opportunity to make a parting request.…

We humans have an uncanny ability to trade amazement at the awesome things of God for amusement with man-made trinkets. I liken this to watching an online radar map instead of going outside and watching the approaching storm itself.
