Sunday Evening Service – Communion ServiceText: Exodus 12:8, 24–27; Luke 22:15; 1 Corinthians 11:26–34 (KJV)Join us this Sunday evening for a special Communion Service as Pastor Dr. Ernest Groce leads us in a time of remembrance, reflection, and worship centered on the sacrifice of our Lord Jesus Christ.In Exodus 12:8, 24–27, we see the institution of the Passover, where God instructed His people to remember His deliverance. This Old Testament picture points forward to the ultimate Lamb—Jesus Christ—whose sacrifice would bring true and lasting redemption.In Luke 22:15, Jesus expresses His desire to share the Passover with His disciples before His suffering, establishing the Lord’s Supper as a lasting ordinance. This moment marks the transition from the Passover to a deeper remembrance centered on His body and blood given for us.In 1 Corinthians 11:26–34, we are instructed on the meaning and manner of observing Communion: “For as often as ye eat this bread, and drink this cup, ye do shew the Lord’s death till he come.” It is a time to remember Christ’s sacrifice, examine our hearts, and partake in a worthy manner.This service calls us to pause and reflect on the price that was paid for our salvation, to examine our lives before the Lord, and to rejoice in the hope of His return.This message will explore:• The significance of the Passover as a picture of Christ• The institution of the Lord’s Supper by Jesus• The importance of self-examination before partaking• Proclaiming the Lord’s death until He comesCome join us for this meaningful service as we remember the sacrifice of Christ, reflect on His goodness, and renew our hearts before Him.

Sunday Morning Service – May 3, 2026Text: Psalm 139:1–12, 14, 17, 21–23 (KJV)Title: X-Ray SermonJoin us this Sunday morning as Pastor Dr. Ernest Groce brings a message from Psalm 139 entitled “X-Ray Sermon.” In this deeply personal and powerful passage, David reflects on the all-knowing, ever-present, and searching nature of God—revealing that nothing in our lives is hidden from Him.In verses 1–4, David declares, “O LORD, thou hast searched me, and known me.” God knows every detail—our thoughts, our words, and even our motives before we express them. His knowledge of us is complete and perfect.Verses 5–6 remind us that God surrounds us: “Thou hast beset me behind and before, and laid thine hand upon me.” There is no part of our lives outside of His awareness or care.In verses 7–12, we are reminded of God’s presence everywhere: “Whither shall I go from thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from thy presence?” Whether in the highest heaven or the darkest place, God is there—seeing, knowing, and guiding.Verse 14 proclaims, “I will praise thee; for I am fearfully and wonderfully made.” God not only knows us, but He has created us with purpose and care.Verse 17 speaks of the precious thoughts of God toward us, while verses 21–22 show David’s desire to align his heart with God’s righteousness.Finally, in verses 23–24, David invites God to examine him: “Search me, O God, and know my heart… and see if there be any wicked way in me.” This is the true “x-ray”—a willingness to let God reveal what is within and lead us in the right way.This message will explore:• God’s complete knowledge of our lives• The inescapable presence of God• Our value as God’s creation• The importance of allowing God to search and examine our heartsCome join us as we study this searching passage and are challenged to open our hearts before God, allowing Him to reveal, cleanse, and lead us in His perfect way.

Wednesday Night Bible Study – April 29, 2026Text: Job 5:17–19 (KJV)Join us this Wednesday night for Bible study as Pastor Dr. Ernest Groce continues our study through the book of Job in Job 5:17–19. In this passage, Eliphaz speaks about the correction of God and the deliverance that follows, offering truths that, while misapplied to Job, still reveal important principles about the Lord’s dealings with His people.In verse 17, we read, “Behold, happy is the man whom God correcteth: therefore despise not thou the chastening of the Almighty.” This verse reminds us that God’s correction is not meant to harm, but to help—to shape, refine, and draw us closer to Him.Verse 18 continues, “For he maketh sore, and bindeth up: he woundeth, and his hands make whole.” God’s work may involve difficulty, but His purpose is always restoration. The same hand that allows the trial is the hand that brings healing.In verse 19, we see a promise of deliverance: “He shall deliver thee in six troubles: yea, in seven there shall no evil touch thee.” This speaks of God’s sustaining power and His ability to carry His people through every trial they face.This passage encourages us to view God’s correction through the lens of His love and faithfulness, trusting that He is working for our good even in times of hardship.This message will explore:• The purpose of God’s correction in the believer’s life• The balance of God’s discipline and His healing• The promise of God’s deliverance through trials• Trusting God’s hand in every circumstanceCome join us as we continue studying Job and are reminded that even in correction, God’s love, care, and deliverance are always present.

Sunday Evening Service – April 26, 2026Text: 1 Peter 5:8–9 (KJV)Title: Resisting the DevilJoin us this Sunday evening as Pastor Dr. Ernest Groce brings a message from 1 Peter 5:8–9 entitled “Resisting the Devil.” In this sobering passage, the Apostle Peter warns believers of the reality of our adversary and calls us to a life of vigilance and steadfast faith.In verse 8, we are commanded, “Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour.” The Christian life is not without opposition. Satan is real, active, and seeking to destroy, which is why we must remain alert and spiritually disciplined.Verse 9 gives us the response: “Whom resist stedfast in the faith…” Believers are not called to fear the enemy, but to stand firm against him through faith. Victory is found not in our own strength, but in a steadfast trust in God and His Word.The verse continues, “knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world.” We are reminded that we are not alone in the battle—other believers face the same struggles, and God is faithful to sustain His people.This passage calls us to awareness, resistance, and confidence in the Lord as we face spiritual opposition.This message will explore:• The reality and activity of our adversary• The call to be sober and vigilant• How to resist the devil through steadfast faith• The encouragement that we are not alone in the battleCome join us as we study this passage and are challenged to stand firm, stay watchful, and resist the devil through the strength God provides.

Sunday Morning Service – April 26, 2026Text: Acts 1:1–3, 9–11 (KJV)Title: An Unfinished TaskJoin us this Sunday morning as Pastor Dr. Ernest Groce brings a message from Acts 1:1–3, 9–11 entitled “An Unfinished Task.” In this passage, we find the risen Christ giving final instructions to His disciples before His ascension, leaving them with a mission that still continues today.In verses 1–3, Luke recounts how Jesus, after His resurrection, showed Himself alive “by many infallible proofs,” speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God. These appearances confirmed the reality of the resurrection and prepared the disciples for the work ahead.Verse 9 records the ascension of Christ: “While they beheld, he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight.” The disciples watched as their Lord departed, marking a transition from His earthly ministry to their responsibility to carry the message forward.In verses 10–11, two angels declare, “Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus… shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven.” This reminder points both to Christ’s return and to the urgency of the task He has left behind.This passage makes it clear that while Christ’s work of redemption is finished, the work of reaching the world with the gospel is not. The task remains for every believer to carry the message of the risen Savior to others.This message will explore:• The certainty of Christ’s resurrection and its proof• The significance of Christ’s ascension• The promise of His return• The responsibility of believers to continue the workCome join us as we study this passage and are reminded that we have been given “an unfinished task” to fulfill until the Lord returns.

Wednesday Night Bible Study – April 22, 2026Text: Job 5:8–18 (KJV)Join us this Wednesday night for Bible study as Pastor Dr. Ernest Groce continues our study through the book of Job in Job 5:8–18. In this passage, Eliphaz continues his counsel to Job, pointing toward seeking God and recognizing His hand in both trouble and restoration.In verse 8, Eliphaz declares, “I would seek unto God, and unto God would I commit my cause.” Though his application to Job is flawed, the principle is right—when facing difficulty, our first response should be to turn to the Lord.Verse 9 reminds us of the greatness of God: “Which doeth great things and unsearchable; marvellous things without number.” God’s works are beyond our understanding, yet they are always perfect and purposeful.In verses 10–11, we see God’s provision and compassion as He sends rain upon the earth and lifts up those who are low. These verses remind us that God is attentive to both the needs of the world and the hearts of His people.Verses 12–14 show God’s sovereignty over the affairs of men, as He frustrates the devices of the crafty and brings their plans to nothing. No scheme can stand against the wisdom and power of God.In verses 17–18, we are given a powerful truth: “Behold, happy is the man whom God correcteth… For he maketh sore, and bindeth up.” While Eliphaz misapplies this to Job, it is true that God’s correction is an act of His love, designed to restore and strengthen.This message will explore:• The importance of seeking God in times of trouble• The greatness and unsearchable works of God• God’s care for the lowly and His control over all things• The purpose and blessing found in God’s correctionCome join us as we continue studying Job and are reminded that in every circumstance, God is worthy to be sought, trusted, and obeyed.

Sunday Evening Service – April 19, 2026Text: Hebrews 2:1–4 (KJV)Title: Great Salvation – Part 2Join us this Sunday evening as Pastor Dr. Ernest Groce continues the message “So Great Salvation – Part 2” from Hebrews 2:1–4. In this follow-up message, we continue to consider the greatness of the salvation God has provided and the responsibility we have to respond to it with urgency and faith.In verse 1, we are again reminded, “Therefore we ought to give the more earnest heed to the things which we have heard…” The Christian life requires diligence. Truth must not simply be heard—it must be held fast, lest it slip away from our hearts and lives.Verses 2–3 emphasize the seriousness of neglect: “How shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation…?” This is not a question that needs an answer—it is a warning. To ignore or delay responding to God’s offer of salvation is to face certain judgment.Verse 4 shows that this message was not given lightly: “God also bearing them witness, both with signs and wonders…” The gospel has been confirmed by God Himself, leaving no doubt of its truth and importance.This passage challenges us not only to recognize salvation, but to respond to it fully. It is not enough to know about it—we must receive it, live in it, and share it.This message will explore:• The urgency of responding to the gospel message• The danger of delaying or neglecting salvation• The confirmation of God’s truth through His power• Living in the reality of “so great salvation”Come join us as we continue studying this passage and are challenged to take seriously the salvation God has so graciously provided.

Sunday Morning Service – April 19, 2026Text: Hebrews 2:1–4 (KJV)Title: Great Salvation Part 1Join us this Sunday morning as Pastor Dr. Ernest Groce brings a message from Hebrews 2:1–4 entitled “So Great Salvation.” In this powerful passage, we are reminded of the greatness of the salvation God has provided and the serious responsibility we have to give heed to it.In verse 1, we are warned, “Therefore we ought to give the more earnest heed to the things which we have heard, lest at any time we should let them slip.” Salvation is not something to take lightly. We are called to carefully guard and respond to the truth we have received.Verses 2–3 remind us of the certainty of God’s Word and the danger of neglect: “How shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation…?” The writer emphasizes that just as judgment followed disobedience under the law, there are consequences for ignoring or neglecting the salvation offered through Christ.Verse 4 reveals the confirmation of this salvation: “God also bearing them witness, both with signs and wonders, and with divers miracles, and gifts of the Holy Ghost.” God Himself testified to the truth of the gospel through miraculous works and the ministry of the Spirit.This passage calls us to recognize the value of what God has given. Salvation is not ordinary—it is “so great,” provided through the sacrifice of Christ and confirmed by God’s power.This message will explore:• The greatness and value of the salvation God has provided• The danger of neglecting the truth of the gospel• The certainty and authority of God’s Word• The testimony of God confirming the message of salvationCome join us as we study this passage and are reminded of the urgency, seriousness, and wonder of “so great salvation.”

Sunday Evening Service – April 12, 2026Text: Joshua 3:1–4 (KJV)Title: The FutureJoin us this Sunday evening as Pastor Dr. Ernest Groce brings a message from Joshua 3:1–4 entitled “The Future.” In this passage, the children of Israel stand on the edge of the Jordan River, preparing to move forward into the land God has promised them.In verse 1, Joshua rises early and leads the people to Jordan, where they lodge before crossing over. This moment represents a place of preparation, where faith must replace fear as they look toward what lies ahead.Verses 2–3 show the instruction given to the people—to follow the ark of the covenant as it moves before them. The ark symbolized the presence of God, reminding Israel that their future was not to be navigated on their own, but by following the Lord’s leading.Verse 4 gives an important principle: “That ye may know the way by which ye must go: for ye have not passed this way heretofore.” The future was unknown to them, but God had already made the path. Their responsibility was to keep their eyes on Him and follow in obedience.This passage reminds us that while the future may be uncertain to us, it is never uncertain to God. He leads, guides, and prepares the way for those who trust Him.This message will explore:• Preparing our hearts for what lies ahead• Following God’s presence in every step of life• Trusting the Lord in unfamiliar paths• Walking by faith into the future God has plannedCome join us as we study this passage and are encouraged to face the future with confidence, knowing that God goes before us and will lead us every step of the way.

Sunday Morning Service – April 12, 2026Text: 1 Peter 5:6–8 (KJV)Title: Be WatchfulJoin us this Sunday morning as Pastor Dr. Ernest Groce brings a message from 1 Peter 5:6–8 entitled “Be Watchful.” In this important passage, the Apostle Peter exhorts believers to live with humility, trust in God’s care, and remain alert in the face of spiritual danger.In verse 6, we are called to humility: “Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time.” The Christian life begins with a surrendered heart, trusting God’s timing and authority in every situation.Verse 7 gives us a comforting promise: “Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.” We are reminded that no burden is too small or too great for the Lord. He invites us to place every concern into His hands because of His personal care for us.In verse 8, the focus shifts to vigilance: “Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour.” While we rest in God’s care, we must also remain spiritually alert, aware of the enemy’s tactics and ready to stand firm.This message will explore:• The call to humility under God’s mighty hand• The comfort of casting every care upon the Lord• The reality of a spiritual adversary• The importance of being watchful and vigilantCome join us as we study this passage and are challenged to live humbly, trust fully, and stay watchful in our walk with the Lord.

Wednesday Night Bible Study – April 8, 2026Text: Job 5:1–7 (KJV)Key Verse: Job 5:7Join us this Wednesday night for Bible study as Pastor Dr. Ernest Groce continues our study through the book of Job in Job 5:1–7. In this passage, Eliphaz continues his response to Job, sharing his understanding of trouble, affliction, and the condition of mankind.In verse 1, Eliphaz challenges Job to consider where he might turn for answers, implying that his situation is without defense. His words reflect a limited view of God’s workings, yet they push us to consider where true help is found.Verses 2–3 highlight the danger of sinful attitudes: “For wrath killeth the foolish man, and envy slayeth the silly one.” Eliphaz points to the destructive nature of sin, reminding us that what is within the heart can have serious outward consequences.In verses 4–5, he describes the effects of a life touched by trouble, emphasizing loss and hardship. While his application to Job is misguided, the reality of life’s difficulties is clearly seen.

Sunday Evening Service – April 5, 2026Text: Matthew 28:1–7 (KJV)Title: Angels’ Resurrection Message – Part 2Join us this Resurrection Sunday evening as Pastor Dr. Ernest Groce continues the message “Angels’ Resurrection Message – Part 2” from Matthew 28:1–7. In this follow-up message, we further explore the powerful truths found in the angel’s declaration at the empty tomb and what it means for every believer.In verses 5–6, the angel’s words ring with both comfort and victory: “Fear not ye… He is not here: for he is risen, as he said.” The resurrection not only confirms Christ’s power over death, but it also removes fear from the hearts of those who trust in Him. Because He lives, we have hope that is sure and steadfast.The phrase “as he said” reminds us of the faithfulness of Christ. Every promise He made was fulfilled, and the resurrection stands as proof that God’s Word can always be trusted. What He has spoken, He will bring to pass.In verse 7, the instruction is clear: “Go quickly, and tell his disciples.” The resurrection message is not meant to remain at the tomb—it is a message to be carried. Those who have experienced the truth of the risen Christ are called to share it with urgency and boldness.This message will explore:• The peace and assurance found in the resurrection of Christ• The faithfulness of God in fulfilling every promise• The victory believers have because Jesus is alive• The urgency of sharing the resurrection message with othersCome join us as we continue to rejoice in the risen Savior and are challenged to live in the victory and purpose that His resurrection provides.

Sunday Morning Service – April 5, 2026Text: Matthew 28:1–7 (KJV)Title: Angels’ Resurrection Message – Part 1Join us this Resurrection Sunday morning as Pastor Dr. Ernest Groce brings a powerful message entitled “Angels’ Resurrection Message – Part 1” from Matthew 28:1–7. In this glorious passage, we witness the empty tomb and hear the heavenly declaration that forever changed history—Jesus Christ is risen.In verses 1–2, we see the women coming to the sepulchre early, only to experience a great earthquake as the angel of the Lord descends and rolls back the stone. This was not to let Christ out, but to show the world that He had already risen, just as He said.Verse 3 describes the angel’s appearance, “His countenance was like lightning, and his raiment white as snow,” reminding us of the power and glory of God on display at the resurrection.In verses 5–6, the angel delivers the greatest message ever given: “Fear not ye: for I know that ye seek Jesus, which was crucified. He is not here: for he is risen, as he said.” The resurrection is the foundation of our faith, proving that Christ has victory over sin, death, and the grave.Verse 7 calls for a response: “Go quickly, and tell his disciples that he is risen from the dead.” The message of the resurrection is not to be kept to ourselves—it is to be shared with the world.This message will explore:• The power and reality of the resurrection of Jesus Christ• The message delivered by the angel at the empty tomb• The fulfillment of Christ’s promise that He would rise again• The responsibility to share the good news with othersCome join us as we celebrate the resurrection of our Savior and rejoice in the message that brings hope, victory, and eternal life to all who believe.

Wednesday Night Bible Study – April 1, 2026Text: Job 5:1–7 (KJV)Join us this Wednesday night for Bible study as Pastor Dr. Ernest Groce brings a message from Job 5:1–7. In this passage, Eliphaz continues speaking to Job, offering his perspective on suffering, trouble, and the condition of man.In verse 1, Eliphaz challenges Job by asking, “Call now, if there be any that will answer thee; and to which of the saints wilt thou turn?” He implies that Job’s situation is without defense, urging him to consider his standing and where he might find help.Verses 2–3 speak of the destructive nature of foolishness and envy: “For wrath killeth the foolish man, and envy slayeth the silly one.” Eliphaz suggests that inner attitudes can lead to outward ruin, reinforcing his belief that trouble is tied to one’s own actions.In verses 4–5, he describes the consequences that follow, portraying a life affected by loss and hardship. Though Eliphaz assumes a direct cause-and-effect, his words still highlight the seriousness of sin and its impact.Verses 6–7 present a key truth: “Although affliction cometh not forth of the dust… Yet man is born unto trouble, as the sparks fly upward.” While Eliphaz misunderstands Job’s situation, he rightly observes that trouble is a universal part of life in a fallen world.This message will explore:• The reality that trouble is a part of life• The danger of wrong assumptions about suffering• The consequences of sin and foolishness• Trusting God even when we do not understand our circumstancesCome join us as we study this passage and are reminded that while trouble is certain, God’s wisdom and purpose are always greater than our understanding.

Sunday Evening Service – March 29, 2026Text: Matthew 7:24–27 (KJV)Title: What Is Your Life Built On?Join us this Sunday evening as Pastor Dr. Ernest Groce brings a message from Matthew 7:24–27 entitled “What Is Your Life Built On?” In this powerful conclusion to the Sermon on the Mount, the Lord Jesus Christ gives a vivid illustration of two foundations and the outcomes of each.In verses 24–25, Jesus speaks of the wise man who builds his house upon a rock: “Whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them… it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock.” This represents the life that not only hears God’s Word but obeys it. When storms come—and they will—the life built on Christ stands firm.In verses 26–27, He contrasts this with the foolish man who builds upon the sand: “And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not… and great was the fall of it.” This is the life that hears truth but does not apply it. Without a solid foundation, collapse is inevitable when trials arise.This passage reminds us that the difference is not in hearing, but in doing. Both men faced the same storms, but only one stood because of the foundation he chose.This message will explore:• The importance of building your life on the Word of God• The difference between hearing and obeying• The certainty of life’s storms and trials• The stability that comes from a life founded on ChristCome join us as we examine this searching question—What is your life built on?—and are challenged to build on the only foundation that will stand the test of time.

Sunday Morning Service – March 29, 2026Text: Job 4:7–8 (KJV)Title: RememberJoin us this Sunday morning as Pastor Dr. Ernest Groce brings a message from Job 4:7–8 entitled “Remember.” In this passage, Eliphaz begins to speak to Job, urging him to consider what he believes to be a clear principle about life, suffering, and righteousness.In verse 7, Eliphaz says, “Remember, I pray thee, who ever perished, being innocent? or where were the righteous cut off?” He calls Job to reflect, assuming that hardship must be tied to wrongdoing. His words sound logical from a human standpoint, yet they fail to fully grasp the deeper purposes of God.Verse 8 continues, “Even as I have seen, they that plow iniquity, and sow wickedness, reap the same.” While it is true that sin carries consequences, Eliphaz wrongly applies this truth to Job’s situation, suggesting that Job’s suffering must be the result of sin.This passage reminds us that while there are principles of sowing and reaping, we must be careful not to misjudge others or assume we fully understand God’s workings. Sometimes, what we need most is not to explain every trial, but to trust the Lord in the midst of it.This message will explore:• The importance of remembering truth—but applying it correctly• The reality that sin brings consequences• The danger of assuming we understand every situation• Trusting God when His ways are higher than oursCome join us as we study this passage and are reminded to “remember” rightly—holding to truth while trusting God’s greater purpose in every circumstance.

Wednesday Night Bible Study – March 25, 2026Text: Luke 10:1–4 (KJV)Title: Total Abandonment Join us this Wednesday night for Bible study as Brother Sammy Powell brings a message from Luke 10:1–4 entitled “God’s Plan.” In this passage, we see the Lord Jesus Christ sending forth laborers into the harvest, revealing His divine plan for reaching the world with the gospel.In verse 1, the Lord appoints seventy others and sends them “two and two before his face into every city and place.” This reminds us that God’s plan has always involved His people going forth with purpose, working together to prepare hearts for the message of Christ.Verse 2 emphasizes the great need: “The harvest truly is great, but the labourers are few.” There is no shortage of opportunity, but there is a great need for willing workers. Jesus instructs us to pray that the Lord of the harvest would send forth laborers into His harvest.In verse 3, we are reminded that following God’s plan is not without difficulty: “Go your ways: behold, I send you forth as lambs among wolves.” Serving the Lord requires courage, faith, and a dependence upon Him, even in the face of opposition.Verse 4 teaches us about trust and focus in God’s work. The disciples were sent out without relying on material provisions, showing that God’s plan is accomplished not through human resources, but through faith in His provision and power.This message will explore:• God’s plan for reaching the world through His people• The great need for laborers in the harvest• The call to prayer and participation in God’s work• Trusting God’s provision and power in every step of obedienceCome join us as we study this passage and are reminded that God has a plan, and He desires to use each of us in His work to reach others with the gospel.

Sunday Evening Service – March 22, 2026Text: James 1:1–8Title: If You Have a NeedJoin us this Sunday evening as Pastor Dr. Ernest Groce brings a message from James 1:1–8 entitled “If You Have a Need.” In this opening passage, James writes to believers facing trials and reminds us that in every difficulty, God has provided exactly what we need—if we will come to Him in faith.In James 1:2–3, we are instructed, “My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations; Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience.” Trials reveal our needs and remind us that we cannot rely on ourselves. Instead, God uses these moments to grow us and draw us closer to Him.Verse 4 shows us that God’s work in our lives is purposeful: “But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.” What may feel like lack or hardship is often God shaping us into spiritually complete believers.In verses 5–6, we find one of the greatest promises in Scripture: “If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God… and it shall be given him.” If you have a need—especially the need for wisdom—God invites you to come to Him. He gives generously and without reproach, but we must ask in faith, believing that He will answer.Verses 7–8 remind us that doubt hinders our walk with God. A double-minded man is unstable and cannot expect to receive from the Lord. God calls us to trust Him fully, bringing our needs before Him with confidence and a steadfast heart.This message will explore:• How trials reveal our needs and deepen our dependence on God• God’s purpose in developing patience and spiritual maturity• The promise that God will supply wisdom to those who ask• The importance of faith and the danger of a divided heartCome join us as we study this encouraging passage and are reminded that no matter the need, God is ready and willing to give to those who seek Him in faith.

Sunday Morning Service – March 22, 2026Text: 1 Peter 5:5–9 (KJV)Title: Cast Your CareJoin us this Sunday morning as Pastor Dr. Ernest Groce brings a message from 1 Peter 5:5–9 entitled “Cast Your Care.” In this encouraging passage, the Apostle Peter reminds believers of the humility, dependence, and vigilance required in the Christian life, especially in times of burden and concern.In verses 5–6, we are called to humility: “God resisteth the proud, and giveth grace to the humble.” True strength in the Christian life begins with a humble heart that is willing to submit to God. When we humble ourselves under His mighty hand, we can trust that He will exalt us in due time.Verse 7 gives a powerful and comforting command: “Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.” God does not intend for us to carry our burdens alone. Every worry, fear, and concern can be placed into His hands because He genuinely cares for us.In verse 8, we are warned to be vigilant: “Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour.” While we are invited to rest in God’s care, we must also remain alert to the spiritual battle around us.Verse 9 calls us to stand firm in the faith, “Whom resist stedfast in the faith, knowing that the same afflictions are accomplished in your brethren that are in the world.” We are reminded that we are not alone in our struggles, and God gives strength to endure.This message will explore:• The importance of humility in receiving God’s grace• The invitation to cast every care upon the Lord• The reality of spiritual warfare and the need for vigilance• Standing firm in faith in the midst of trialsCome join us as we study this powerful passage and are reminded that no burden is too heavy for the Lord, and no believer is left to face life’s battles alone.

Wednesday Bible Study – March 18, 2026Text: Job 4:1–4Join us for our Wednesday evening Bible study as we continue our study through the book of Job. In Job 4:1–4, Eliphaz the Temanite begins to respond to Job after witnessing his deep sorrow and suffering.Eliphaz approaches Job respectfully, asking permission to speak while acknowledging the weight of the situation. He reminds Job of the impact he once had on others—how he instructed many, strengthened weak hands, and upheld those who were falling. Job had been a source of encouragement and stability for others in their times of trouble.Now, however, Job himself is in deep distress. Though Eliphaz does not yet fully accuse him, he begins laying the groundwork for questioning how Job is handling his own suffering compared to how he once helped others.This passage marks the beginning of the first speech from Job’s friends, introducing the human perspective on suffering that will continue throughout the dialogue. While there are glimpses of truth in what is said, the friends ultimately misunderstand both God’s purposes and Job’s condition.As we study these verses, we are reminded of the importance of compassion, the weight of our words, and the reality that trials often test what we truly believe.This study will explore:• The beginning of Eliphaz’s response to Job• Job’s testimony of strengthening others• The contrast between past ministry and present suffering• The importance of grace and wisdom when speaking to those in trialsCome join us as we continue our verse-by-verse study through the book of Job and learn practical truths about suffering, encouragement, and trusting God through every season of life.

Sunday Evening Service – March 15, 2026Text: 1 Peter 1:3–5Title: Great Mercy – Part 2Join us this Sunday evening as Pastor Dr. Ernest Groce continues the message “Great Mercy – Part 2” from 1 Peter 1:3–5. In this powerful passage, the Apostle Peter directs believers to the incredible mercy of God that has given us new life, a living hope, and an eternal inheritance through the resurrection of Jesus Christ.In 1 Peter 1:3, we are reminded that our salvation is not the result of human effort but of the abundant mercy of God. Because of His great mercy, believers are “begotten again unto a lively hope” by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead. The resurrection is the foundation of our hope and the assurance that what God has promised is certain and secure.Verse 4 lifts our eyes toward the eternal inheritance that awaits every child of God. Peter describes it as “incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you.” While everything in this world is temporary and uncertain, the inheritance God has prepared for His people is perfect, pure, and everlasting.In verse 5, we see the wonderful promise that believers are “kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation.” Our security does not rest in our own strength, but in the sustaining power of God Himself, who guards and preserves His people until the day when our salvation is fully revealed.This message will explore:• The greatness of God’s mercy in providing salvation• The living hope believers have through the resurrection of Christ• The eternal inheritance reserved for the children of God• The power of God that keeps and secures every believerCome join us as we continue studying this rich passage of Scripture and reflect on the wonderful mercy of God that gives hope, security, and assurance to every believer.

Sunday Morning Service – March 15, 2026Text: 1 Peter 1:3–5Title: Great Mercy – Part 1Join us this Sunday morning as Pastor Dr. Ernest Groce begins a message titled “Great Mercy – Part 1” from 1 Peter 1:3–5. In these opening verses of Peter’s first epistle, we are reminded of the incredible mercy of God that brings salvation, hope, and assurance to every believer.Peter begins by blessing “the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,” who according to His abundant mercy has given us new birth. Salvation is not something earned by human effort or merit, but something freely given because of the great mercy of God. Through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, believers are given a living hope that reaches beyond the troubles and uncertainties of this present life.The Christian life is built upon this foundation of mercy and hope. Because Christ lives, believers have a hope that is alive and enduring. This hope is not based on changing circumstances or human strength, but on the finished work of Jesus Christ and the promises of God that never fail.In this message, we will begin exploring the richness of this passage and consider the mercy that God has shown toward sinners in providing salvation through His Son.This message will explore:• The abundant mercy of God that provides salvation• What it means to be “begotten again” or born again• The living hope believers have through the resurrection of Christ• How God’s mercy changes our perspective on life and eternityCome join us as we open God’s Word and begin looking at the wonderful mercy of God that gives believers new life and a living hope through Jesus Christ.

Wednesday Bible Study – March 11, 2026Text: Job 4:1–5Join us for our Wednesday evening Bible study as we continue our study through the book of Job. In Job 4:1–5, Eliphaz the Temanite begins speaking to Job after witnessing his deep sorrow and suffering.Eliphaz approaches Job carefully at first, asking if he may speak and reminding Job of the counsel and encouragement he had given to others in times past. Job had been known as one who strengthened the weak, upheld those who were falling, and comforted those who were discouraged. Yet now that great trouble has come upon him, Eliphaz points out that Job himself is overwhelmed by the very kind of trial he once helped others endure.This passage begins the first of several speeches from Job’s friends as they attempt to explain the reason for Job’s suffering. While their words sometimes contain elements of truth, their understanding of God’s purposes is incomplete, and their conclusions about Job will ultimately prove to be misguided.As we study these verses, we are reminded how easy it is to give counsel when someone else is suffering, and how much more difficult it can be when trials come into our own lives.This study will explore:• The beginning of Eliphaz’s response to Job• Job’s reputation for strengthening and helping others• The challenge of enduring trials personally• Lessons about compassion, wisdom, and speaking to those who sufferCome join us as we continue our verse-by-verse study through the book of Job and learn practical truths about suffering, counsel, and trusting God in difficult seasons of life.

March 8, 2026 – Sunday Evening ServiceGuest Preacher: Brother Phil RenslowStudy of NoahIn our Sunday evening service, we were honored to have guest preacher Brother Phil Renslow bring a message from the life of Noah. In a world filled with corruption, violence, and rejection of God, Noah stood as a man who found grace in the eyes of the Lord. His life reminds us that even when the culture around us drifts further from God, it is still possible to walk faithfully with Him.

Sunday Morning Service – March 8, 2026Text: 1 Samuel 30; Job 2Title: How to Get PeaceJoin us this Sunday morning as Pastor Dr. Ernest Groce brings a message from 1 Samuel 30 and Job 2 on the subject of finding true peace in the midst of life’s trials. In both passages, we see faithful men of God facing overwhelming circumstances—David returning to find Ziklag burned and his family taken captive, and Job enduring devastating loss and painful suffering.In 1 Samuel 30, David finds himself surrounded by distress and discouragement, even to the point that his own men speak of stoning him. Yet in the middle of the crisis, the Bible tells us that “David encouraged himself in the Lord his God.” Instead of giving in to fear or despair, David turned his heart toward the Lord and found strength.In Job 2, we see Job sitting in ashes, covered with painful boils, while enduring the weight of unimaginable suffering. Yet even in the depths of his affliction, Job refuses to curse God. His life demonstrates a steadfast faith that does not depend on circumstances but rests in the character of God.Together, these passages show us that peace is not found in the absence of trouble but in the presence of God. When life feels overwhelming and the future uncertain, the Lord invites His people to bring their burdens to Him and trust in His faithfulness.This message will explore:Where true peace comes from in times of distressHow David strengthened himself in the LordWhat Job teaches us about faith in sufferingHow believers today can experience God’s peace in the midst of trialsCome join us as we open God’s Word and discover how the Lord gives peace that steadies the heart even in the most difficult seasons of life.

Wednesday Night Bible Study – March 4, 2026Text: Job 3:25–26Pastor: Dr. Ernest GroceJoin us this Wednesday evening as Pastor Dr. Ernest Groce continues our study through Job chapter 3, focusing on verses 25–26. In these closing words of Job’s lament, he expresses the deep fears that have now become his reality. Job declares that the very things he once feared have come upon him, leaving him without rest, quietness, or relief from his trouble.These verses reveal how suffering can shake even the strongest believers. Job had lived a life of integrity and reverence toward God, yet he now finds himself overwhelmed by grief and distress. His words capture the heavy burden of anxiety, the weight of fear, and the emotional exhaustion that can follow seasons of deep trial.In this passage we are reminded that the Bible does not hide the struggles of God’s people. Instead, it shows us that even in moments when peace seems far away, God is still at work in the lives of His children. Job’s cry is honest and raw, yet it takes place within the larger story of God’s sovereignty and purpose.This study will explore:The reality of fear and anxiety in the human heartHow trials can bring long-held fears to the surfaceThe emotional toll of prolonged sufferingThe reminder that God remains sovereign even when peace seems absentCome join us as we continue walking through the book of Job together and discover how God meets His people even in the most restless and difficult seasons of life.

Lord, Teach Us to PrayPreached 3-1-26 PM | Luke 11:1–8; Luke 18:1In Luke 11:1, the disciples make a simple but powerful request: “Lord, teach us to pray.” They had heard Him preach. They had watched Him perform miracles. But what stirred their hearts most was His prayer life. They understood that His power flowed from His communion with the Father. If we are going to be effective Christians, we must learn to pray.In verses 5–8, Jesus gives the parable of the friend at midnight. A man knocks, not casually, but persistently. Though the door is shut, though the hour is late, he keeps asking. The lesson is clear: prayer is not about casual convenience—it is about earnest persistence. God is not bothered by our repeated coming; He is pleased by it. Bold, believing prayer honors Him.Then in Luke 18:1, the purpose is plainly stated: “that men ought always to pray, and not to faint.” Prayer keeps us from fainting. When we stop praying, discouragement sets in. When we stop asking, we start doubting. But continual prayer fuels endurance. It strengthens weary hearts and steadies troubled minds.These passages teach us that prayer is not a last resort—it is a lifeline. It is not a ritual—it is a relationship. We pray because we depend. We ask because we believe. We persist because we trust the character of the One behind the door.If we would see God move in our homes, our church, and our own hearts, we must learn what the disciples learned: stay at the door. Keep knocking. Refuse to faint. And trust that our Father hears.

2-25-26 Wednesday Night Bible Study – February 25, 2026Text: Job 3:11–16Pastor Dr. Ernest GroceJoin us this Wednesday evening as Pastor Dr. Ernest Groce continues our sobering journey through Job 3, focusing on verses 11–16. In this deeply transparent portion of Scripture, Job laments the day of his birth and wrestles aloud with the question of why he did not die in infancy. His words reveal the depths of despair that can follow overwhelming loss and prolonged suffering.In these verses, we see not rebellion against God, but the honest cry of a broken heart searching for relief. Job speaks from a place of exhaustion, longing for rest, and trying to understand the purpose behind his pain. His anguish reminds us that Scripture does not ignore human sorrow—it records it faithfully and compassionately.This study will explore:The intensity of grief and emotional anguishWhy even godly people may wrestle with despairThe longing for rest in the midst of sufferingHow God allows honest expressions of pain while sustaining His childrenCome ready to dig into God’s Word and be reminded that even in life’s darkest questions, the Lord remains present, patient, and faithful.

Let This Mind Be In YouPreached 2-22-26 PM | Philippians 2:1–10In Philippians 2, the Apostle Paul calls believers to something deeper than outward religion—he calls us to the very mind of Christ. Unity is urged in verses 1–2, but it is rooted in humility. “Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory; but in lowliness of mind let each esteem other better than themselves.” The Christian life is not about lifting self—it is about lowering self for the glory of God and the good of others.Verses 5–8 bring us to one of the most powerful portraits in all of Scripture. Christ, though equal with God, “made himself of no reputation.” He took upon Him the form of a servant. He humbled Himself. He became obedient unto death—even the death of the cross. Before there was exaltation, there was humiliation. Before the crown, there was a cross.Then in verses 9–10, we see the result of that surrender. “Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him…” The name of Jesus is above every name. One day every knee will bow, and every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord.Having the mind of Christ means embracing humility, obedience, and surrender now—trusting that God is the One who exalts in His time. The pathway up in God’s economy is always down.

The Demands of a ChristianPreached 2-23-26 AM | 1 Peter 5:1–5; Philippians 2:1–8In 1 Peter 5, the Holy Ghost lays out the spirit required of both shepherds and sheep. The elders are charged to “feed the flock of God… not by constraint, but willingly; not for filthy lucre, but of a ready mind.” Leadership in the church is not about position—it is about responsibility. It is not about authority—it is about accountability. A true servant of Christ leads by example, not by force.Then in verse 5, the command widens to every believer: “Yea, all of you be subject one to another, and be clothed with humility.” Christianity demands submission. It demands humility. It demands that we put on lowliness like a garment. God resisteth the proud, but giveth grace to the humble. Pride invites resistance from heaven; humility invites grace.Philippians 2 deepens the call. “Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory.” The Christian life forbids selfish ambition. We are commanded to esteem others better than ourselves and to look not only on our own things, but also on the things of others. That is not natural—it is supernatural.Then we are brought face to face with the supreme example: “Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus.” He made Himself of no reputation. He took the form of a servant. He humbled Himself. He became obedient unto death—even the death of the cross.The demands of a Christian are clear: humility instead of pride, service instead of self, obedience instead of rebellion. The world exalts self-promotion, but Christ calls for self-denial. The pathway of the believer is the pathway of the cross.

Wednesday Night Bible Study – February 18, 2026Text: Job 3:1–5Pastor Dr. Ernest GroceJoin us this Wednesday evening as Pastor Dr. Ernest Groce leads us into a powerful and sobering study from Job 3:1–5. In this passage, we witness the raw sorrow of Job as he opens his mouth in deep anguish after enduring unimaginable loss. Chapter 3 marks the first time Job speaks following his suffering, and his words reveal the weight of grief, the reality of human frailty, and the depth of emotional pain even a righteous man can experience.This study will explore:The reality of discouragement in the life of a believerHow grief can affect even the strongest faithThe difference between questioning circumstances and turning from GodThe faithfulness of God in our darkest hours

Preached 2-15-26 PM | Joshua 5:7, 13–15In Book of Joshua 5, Israel stands on the edge of promise. The wilderness is behind them. The walls of Jericho are ahead. Before the victory comes surrender. Before the battle comes consecration.In verse 7, the new generation is circumcised—a picture of separation and obedience. God reminds His people that if they are going to possess the land, they must first be set apart. Going all the way with God requires more than proximity to the promise—it requires purity of heart.Then in verses 13–15, Joshua encounters the Captain of the Lord’s host. He asks, “Art thou for us, or for our adversaries?” The answer shifts the focus: it is not whether God is on our side—but whether we are on His. Joshua falls on his face in worship, and the ground becomes holy.

Grappling with GriefPreached 2-15-26 AM | Job 3In Job 3, we step into one of the most raw and transparent chapters in all of Scripture. After unimaginable loss, Job opens his mouth—not to curse God—but to pour out the anguish of his soul. This chapter shows us that even a righteous man can wrestle deeply with sorrow, confusion, and pain.“Grappling with Grief” explores what it means to struggle honestly before God. Job teaches us that grief is not weakness, questions are not rebellion, and brokenness is not the absence of faith. In the silence of heaven and the weight of suffering, Job models how a believer can bring heartache directly to the Lord.

Wednesday Night Bible StudyFebruary 11, 2026Study in the Book of JobJob 2:7–8 (KJV)This Wednesday night we continue our verse-by-verse study through Job chapter 2 as we examine Job 2:7–8, where Satan smites Job with sore boils from the sole of his foot unto his crown, and Job sits down among the ashes with a potsherd in his hand.

Sunday Evening ServiceFebruary 8, 20262 Corinthians 5:14 (KJV)“Things About the Love of Christ”“For the love of Christ constraineth us…”In this Sunday evening message, we turn to the powerful truth found in 2 Corinthians 5:14, where the Apostle Paul declares that the love of Christ constrains us — it compels us, moves us, and governs our lives.

Sunday Morning ServiceFebruary 8, 2026Job 2:6–7 (KJV)“Lessons from a Potsherd”This Sunday morning we look closely at Job 2:6–7, where the Lord permits Satan to touch Job’s body—but not his life. In a matter of moments, Job is smitten with painful boils from the sole of his foot to the crown of his head. Reduced physically, isolated socially, and broken outwardly, Job sits in ashes with nothing but a broken piece of pottery—a potsherd—to scrape his sores.From this small, overlooked detail, we will draw powerful spiritual truths.

February 4, 2026Study in the Book of JobJob 2:4–9 (KJV)This week we continue our journey through the powerful and sobering Book of Job as we examine Job 2:4–9. In this passage, Satan boldly challenges God again, claiming that a man will surrender anything to save his own life. When Job’s health is attacked and his body is covered with painful boils, we see suffering intensify—but we also see steadfast faith on display.

Observe the ValleySunday Morning Message – February 1, 2026Preached by Dr. Ernest Groce, PastorText: Deuteronomy 11:11–15 (KJV)In this Sunday morning message, Dr. Ernest Groce preaches from Deuteronomy 11:11–15, directing our attention to the contrast God makes between Egypt and the land He promised Israel. Egypt depended on human effort, but the land of promise was a land of valleys and hills that drank water from the rain of heaven—fully dependent on God.This message challenges believers to observe the valley, the place where God teaches trust, dependence, and obedience. Though valleys are often associated with difficulty and uncertainty, they are also the places where God’s care is most clearly seen and His provision most faithfully promised. As the Lord watched over the land “from the beginning of the year even unto the end of the year,” so He watches over His people today.A timely reminder that blessings are tied to obedience, and that God supplies rain in due season when His people walk in His ways.
