Our Purpose
To glorify the God of the Scriptures in promoting His worship, evangelizing sinners, and edifying saints.  To this end we are committed to proclaiming God's perfect Law and His glorious Gospel of Grace in Jesus Christ throughout the world, and to defending "the faith which was once for all delivered to the saints." (Jude 3)


Latest "Thought of the Day" From Pastor Cantine
Philemon 14
1/27/2020
But I did not want to do anything without your consent, so that any favor you do will be spontaneous and not forced.

There would have been a simple way to deal with Onesimus—realize that in the end Philemon would agree to have him help Paul, and assume it was all right to keep him around. But this would involve something less that a whole-hearted involvement of Philemon in the ministry of Paul. Philemon would be left out of it, even though the main contribution would be his. This would not be right. And it would not teach what Paul sees must be taught. Philemon must come to terms with the cultural struggle with slavery. How does forgiveness upset the cultural norm? Lord, how must we stand against the cultural norm when we live consistently with what we believe? How can our choices give glory to Jesus?
