More churches closed down last year than there were new churches being opened. Nine out of ten pastors will quit. What does it take to keep the church going and pastor's serving? We need God's love, and we need to love God. - Pastor Betts
Unhypocritical Love
A hypocrite is a person playing a role, to get you to believe something that is not true. God's love is genuine. Those who have God's love in their hearts must be sincere Christians. - Pastor Betts
Using God's Gifts in Service
The human body is a wonderful matrix of various parts functioning as one unit. That is how Paul describes the church. When every person uses God's gifts in service, much can be accomplished for God. Pastor
An Honest Evaluation
In a day when many people are "tooting their own horn," Christians need to be honest about what makes us special—our relationship with Jesus Christ. - Pastor Betts

Conformed Or Transformed
Paul offered his readers two options: be conformed to the world or be transformed through Christ. Which option do you think fulfills the will of God? - Pastor Betts

Paul picked some special words and phrases to describe our commitment to serve God. So, what does it mean to become a living sacrifice? Is this even possible? What is the spiritual application? - Pastor
Be Cold or Hot
Be cold or hot, and not lukewarm. That was the message of Jesus to a group of church people. What does that mean? - Pastor Betts
Walk in the Spirit
Paul wrote that walking in the Spirit is the way Christians can defeat the desires of the sinful life. God has victory for His children! We just need to obey God's will. - Pastor
