PUT ON THE NEW (Ephesians 4:17-24)

Greetings Church, Praise the Lord! We are maturing in Christ, growing stronger in our faith, deeper in our love for Jesus and one another. We are… right? We are growing up into Christ, and are part of a local body of believers, with whom we are serving one another, and our Lord. I don’t believe a believer can become a mature

The Mystery of Christ (Ephesians 3:1-9)

Good morning church, Do you love a good mystery? When I was young, I used to read the Hardy Boys, a series of stories about two brothers who used to solve cases adults could not (and Nancy Drew, their female counterpart). The books captivated you, and drew you in because you were emotionally involved in finding out the solution to the puzzle.

Brought near (Ephesians 2:11-22 NIV)

Hello Saints of the Living God! Excluded! What a horrible word. Brings back all kinds of memories of not being welcomed into a peer group; not chosen to play on the team I really wanted to be on (cause that’s where the cool people were); not good enough to play lead trumpet in the band; not old enough to drive and vote; now, too old to get

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.
