Oh What Manner of Love (1Thess. 2:7-8, 11, 17-20 NKJ)

7 But we were gentle among you, just as a nursing mother cherishes her own children. 8 So, affectionately longing for you, we were well pleased to impart to you not only the gospel of God, but also our own lives, because you had become dear to us.…11 as you know how we exhorted, and comforted, and charged every one of you, as a father

The Gospel? – (1Thessalonians 2:1-10)

If there is one obvious message that comes out of the first 20 verses of the first letter, it is the centrality of the Gospel in the establishment of the church in Thessalonica -The word “gospel” is repeated 5 times from 1:1 to 2:9. It is also referred to

You are chosen for the team (1Thess. 1:4-10)

Complimenting the deserving (1Thess. 1:1-4)

Hello Church, Grace and peace to you all! We are embarking on a new journey studying the letters to the Thessalonian Church, working our way through 1st and 2nd Thessalonians. Why? Because they are amazingly encouraging letters to build us up in our faith. And, they have a lot to say about the end times – the rise of Antichrist, the return

Praying at all times

Greetings Church, We have arrived at the end of the book of Ephesians. What a book! We have seen that probably no other book of the Bible so clearly and orderly describes the grace of God in giving us Jesus Christ as our Redeemer, and expounding the spiritual blessings we have received in and through Him. I encourage you to take a few minutes

A Battle to Fight

Finally, be strong in the Lord and in His mighty power. 11 Put on the full armor of God so that you can take your stand against the devil's schemes. 12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly

Does your faith affect your life? (Ephesians 6:1-9)

Hello Everyone, Our study of Ephesians has brought us to ask a real personal question: Does what I believe change the way I live? There is no such thing as a Sunday Christian. Why? Because being a follower of Jesus is not something you turn on once a week when you are around other Christians. It is not a religion you join, nor a building you

Matsa Moments - Pastor Mike

Matsa Moments - Pastor Mike


The Hebrew word “Matsa” means to: find, meet, discover, encounter. It is used in Deuteronomy 4:29 where the Lord says, "But from there you will seek the LORD your God, and you will find Him if you seek Him with all your heart and with all your soul.” Throughout Scripture, there is an invitation from God to find Him; He actually rewards those who diligently seek Him (Heb. 11:6). To see God we must be looking for Him.

This blog is a journal of finding God - discovering who He is; learning more about His character and attributes, as I encounter Him in in His Word and world around me. These posts are theological reflections emerging out of a desire to understand how the Creator interacts with us, His creatures. Hopefully, through these you will see how the Ever-present Holy One also invites you to know Him more.
