Sermon: Is God’s Love Unconditional? Scripture: John 3:16 Date: May 12, 2019 I have really wrestled with how I should approach these last few weeks of preaching before I ride into the sunset. My first thought was, as I was going through and packing up my sermon files, to pull out 4 or 5…

Sermon: Super(Natural) Proclamation Scripture: Acts 2:14-41 Date: May 1, 2016 I was going to start this message with you closing your eyes and trying to picture what was going on in the streets of Jerusalem on the night of Pentecost. But I was afraid if some of you closed your eyes I’d never get…
