On December 7, the Enright family received a miraculous Christmas gift, by the name of Rowan Dailey Enright. He weighed 8lbs., 9oz., and in the four weeks since, he has already brought great joy to us all. Those of you who have preceded me into the privileged ranks of grandparenthood will know what I mean Keep reading…

The God Who Sees Us
September 1st, 2020 by Pastor Jon EnrightIn my mind, one of the most moving descriptions in Scripture of the character of God is provided by Hagar, the Egyptian slave of Sarah. Hagar had been so mistreated by Sarah and Abraham that she fled into the wilderness. It was there, in her despair and fear and anger, that God found her and Keep reading…

Those who sought to be justified by Law believed that by keeping the commandments, they could make themselves acceptable to God. This, Paul said, is not possible because no one can ever Keep reading…

What Does It Mean To Grieve Or Quench The Holy Spirit?
May 1st, 2019 by Pastor Jon EnrightIn his letter to the Ephesians, the Apostle Paul instructs us not to “grieve” the Holy Spirit (Eph. 4:30) and again in Thessalonians, that we not “quench” the Spirit (1 Thess. 5:20).

What Constitutes Marriage? Can A Couple Be Married Without A Marriage License?
January 1st, 2019 by Pastor Jon EnrightAt its heart, marriage is a sacred institution established by God. Genesis 2 describes the creation of the first man and woman, culminating in the first marriage (Gen. 2:24-25). It is significant that, when creating the woman, God chose not to form her from the dust of the ground, as he had when creating Adam Keep reading…

Why Is Belief In The Virgin Birth Of Jesus Important?
December 1st, 2018 by Pastor Jon EnrightThe vast majority of the information Scripture provides us about Mary is in connection with the birth of Jesus.

What Is Apostasy?
June 7th, 2018 by Pastor Jon EnrightApostasy is to turn away from, or forsake Christ. In Matthew 24:10-12, Jesus warned that many who initially followed him would ultimately fall away from their faith.
