Philippians 3:20, 2 Corinthians 5:20 Rip Van Winkle went to sleep for 20 years. In the time he slept, the world changed drastically! He “only” slept through the American Revolution, while sleeping on American soil! How did he cope with such change? Now, imagine you fell asleep in February 2001. You woke up last […]
John 15:4-6 How well do you know your friends? Well it depends, doesn’t it? We all have varying depths of relationships. There are some friends we know very little about, then there are others we know deeply and they in turn, know a great deal about us. Where would Jesus fall on that scale? […]
Philippians 3:1-4:1 I doubt that 2020 will go down in most of our memories as the best year of our lives. There have been difficulties and set backs. Significant events have been canceled or postponed. High school and college seniors missed traditional events. I recently heard of a couple that traveled to a state […]
John 6:32-33 We are honored to have Sukhwant and Vinita Bhatia join us this Sunday. The Bhatias have been missionaries of BBC since 1988. They serve with Seek Partners International in India.

Luke 2:1-20 Finally, on this Sunday before Christmas, we come to Luke’s narrative of Jesus’ birth. A story many of us grew up hearing.

Luke 1:39-80 What do you and I do with the promises of God? I moved to an area of the country where it had been historically difficult to make a living. Many of the people there, especially the older ones, had seen really hard times in their lives. Yet as I got to know them […]
Luke 1:1-38 Luke’s gospel was written to bolster Theophilus’ faith by demonstrating the certainty of the things he had been taught. Now, 2000 years later it serves the same purpose for you and me. Join us over the next three weeks as we prepare for the celebration of our Lord’s birth. May our faith […]
David Roseland will be bringing us a message from the book of Philippians. As believers today, what exactly does verse 1:21 mean, “For me to live is Christ and to die is gain?” How does the life of a Philippian compare to other believers we read about in Galatians and Corinthians, and how should it […]
As we look forward to next week’s Thanksgiving celebrations with family and friends it might be good to review the Pilgrims’ Thanksgiving of 1621. I will not recount it here, but by our standards, there was not much to be thankful for. The trip seemed doomed from the beginning with the delays and final abandonment […]
