By Pastor Jeff Hanson Promises made, promises kept used to be the saying, not so much anymore!

Keep readingThis Life Isn’t Always Wonderful but What a Wonderful Life it IS!
I won’t take it for granted that everyone has seen, “It’s A Wonderful life” but it is a classic that even after watching it many times I find myself tearing up at certain sections of the movie. Who hasn’t wiped a tear off his or her cheek when Clarence gets his wings! It’s a story…

Keep readingKeep the Hope
By Pastor Jeff, 1 Corinthians 13:13, “And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.” We have many sermons about “Faith” and many more about “Love”, but I want to take some time to talk about the middle one in this verse, “Hope”!
