I preach the Word of God only by His calling and His power. My study and preparation for Sunday mornings has transformed my own life and has been critical in my own understanding of God's Word.
With that said, I would like to share with you some notes, quotes, and MP3s from my sermons over the years. I pray they may find transforming power in your life too.
Below are sermons by date. To the right are sermons by series.

Sermon by Series ...
 AM I SAVED?
Being truly saved is more than saying a prayer, signing a card, or walking to the altar. A true believer becomes a new creation in Christ. In this 5-week series Pastor Mike explains the benchmark of what it means to really be saved. (5 messages)
 CHRISTIAN CONDUCT
As a Christian how important is my behavior (my conduct) in an unbelieving world? Do I make a difference one way or the other? I know I should be "good" but isn't that only to please God? This 4-week series looks at our conduct from an office situation where one person's Christian conduct is on display. (4 messages)
 THE CHRISTMAS SCRIPTURES
Around Christmas time the secular world thinks of gifts and decorations and the Christian world thinks of the birth of baby Jesus. The Bible teaches us that there is much more to all those things than what we celebrate. Ready to find out? (3 messages)
 COUNT THE COST
Christianity has a cost. To be a Christian are you willing to count that cost and then pay that cost? If Jesus is truly everything to you, you will. This series looks at "counting the cost" of discipleship through the eyes of an unbeliever who finds something refreshingly different in the life of a Christian friend. (7 messages)
 DISPUTABLE MATTERS
Sin is clearly defined in the Bible. But what about issues such as food, drink, recreation, television, movies, books, magazines, sports, Sunday activities, cards, games, dancing, smoking, hairstyles, clothing styles, music styles, Christmas trees, etc. Sinful or not? (3 messages)
 DIVINE ELECTION
There are theological differences and beliefs among believers. But there is one issue that has the potential to cause some very bad feelings among believers or stimulate the greatest comfort and inward peace to the individual believer. And that issue is how you got saved. (5 messages)
 FALSE TEACHERS
Did you know that just about every book in the New Testament speaks on false teachers as a threat to the church? Well, false teachers continue to be a threat and they are growing in numbers today. You may even watch them on TV. Beware of the wolves in sheep's clothing! (7 messages)
 THE GLORY OF GOD
It's not uncommon to know a Christian who has a desire to give glory to God. But what exactly does that mean? Is there substance behind those words or is it just cliché? Join Pastor Mike as he pursues this wonderful adventure into the true glory of God! (6 messages)
 THE HOLY SPIRIT
We know a lot about God the Father. We know more about God the Son (Jesus Christ). How much do we know and understand about God the Holy Spirit, the 3rd person of the Trinity? Does He play a role in the conversion of an unbeliever into a believer? Does he play a part in our walk as a believer? What DOES He do? You really need to know! (9 messages)
 JONAH: MAN ON A MISSION
God had a plan for Nineveh. God's plan for Nineveh included Jonah. In Jonah's attempt to do everything humanly possible to escape this mission, he finds out that he can never thwart the plans of a sovereign God. This 9-week expository series is guaranteed to show that there is a part of Jonah in each and every one of us. (9 messages)
 MORMONISM: CULT OR CHRISTIAN?
The Mormon Church is the second-fastest growing church in the United States. Today the Mormon Church has over 14 million members with approximately 300,000 new members added each year. They have strong finances, strong leadership, enthusiastic missionaries; they promote family values, and condone good moral character. How could something like this be a cult? Maybe they are Christians just like us. (3 messages)
 WHY DO HARDSHIPS HAPPEN TO GOD'S CHOSEN?
Why do bad things happen to Christians? As believers shouldn't we be immune from hardships and trials? Shouldn't God have a hedge of protection around us? Pastor Mike covers this tough topic in this 5-week series. (5 messages)
