A Healthy Branch Growing from the Vine

Where Two or Three Are Gathered
Worship Service: Sermon only - 22 Mar, 2015
We consider what it means to "gather together in the Lord's name." It is not so much His name here that is important, but what we understand to captured in His name.

We are "in His name" when our lives are dedicated to honoring and worshiping everything that His name entails. | By Rev. Garry B Walsh , Phoenix, AZ
Rethinking the Idea of One Bad Apple
Worship Service: Sermon only - 15 Mar, 2015

Garry B Walsh , Phoenix, AZ

The Barrier Was Torn in Two
Worship Service: Sermon only - 1 Mar, 2015

Garry B Walsh , Phoenix, AZ

He Found Them Asleep Again
Worship Service: Sermon only - 8 Feb, 2015
This message reflects on the Lord's praying in the garden of Gethsemane, while three times His disciples fell asleep.
