Dual Citizen by Dr. Abidan Shah

Essential by Dr. Abidan Shah

Pathway by Dr. Abidan Shah

Impart by Dr. Abidan Shah

Guardian by Dr. Abidan Shah
This weekend, we will take a look at the pillar of cloud and fire that led the Israelites. This supernatural guide not only showed them which way to go, but also offered them protection from their enemies. Through this, God reminded His people that He would protect and guide them even during difficult times. The title of this weekend’s message is “GUARDIAN.”
Breakthrough by Dr. Abidan Shah

Onward by Dr. Abidan Shah

The title of this weekend’s message is “ONWARD.”
The Journey by Dr. Abidan Shah

Word Perfect by Dr. Abidan Shah
Let’s take the time to evaluate our words and make the necessary changes. As the Holy Spirit fills our heart with truth and mercy, there will be a change in how we speak to others. Are you aware of the power your words hold? Are you reflecting Christ in the way you speak to others or post online? Do your words point people to Christ? Are you saved? Invite your friends and family to come worship with us this weekend!
Abound by Dr. Abidan Shah
This weekend, we will examine a very familiar passage in Paul’s letter to the Philippians. He is telling his readers that in every circumstance, he has learned how to be content. However, contentment cannot come at the expense of ambition. We must be able to be content while still moving forward in the race to which God has called us. The title of this weekend’s message is “ABOUND.”
True Gains by Dr. Abidan Shah
This weekend, we are moving forward in Paul’s letter to the Philippians. Paul is writes about His life before encountering Christ. He has every reason to boast in his accomplishments, but he states that all is worthless compared to having a relationship with Christ. His pedigree is meaningless in light of the cross. Paul reminds his readers that the true mark of success for the believer is having a relationship with Jesus. The title of this weekend’s message is “TRUE GAINS.”
Out-of-Bounds by Dr. Abidan Shah
This weekend, we will be taking a look at Proverbs 6. Solomon lists several things that God detests. This list is a collection of things that should be off limits for believers. If you are looking for clear instruction on how to live the Christian life, look no further. The title of this weekend’s message is “OUT-OF-BOUNDS.”
Confidence by Dr. Abidan Shah
This weekend, we will be looking at the account of Joseph’s family in Genesis and how God was still in control even when it seemed like everything was falling apart. Several times in Scripture, God reminds us that we can trust Him to work all things together for our good, even the things that are painful or difficult. The title of this weekend’s message is “CONFIDENCE.”
Treasure by Dr. Abidan Shah
This weekend, we turn our attention to the parable of the man with a surplus harvest. He wanted to build bigger barns to make room for his harvest and then sit back and enjoy the easy life. However, God declares that his riches are meaningless in light of eternity. The title of this weekend’s message is “TREASURE.”
Shrewd by Pastor Abidan Shah
This weekend, we will be taking a look at the parable of the unjust steward. This is the most difficult parable to interpret. However, once we unravel the layers, the truth that Jesus is communicating to His disciples is just as powerful and impactful for us today. Jesus warns his disciples to be wise and shrewd in their dealings with others. Just because we are believers doesn’t mean we operate with blind trust and naiveté. The title of this week’s message is “SHREWD.”
Envious Mind by Pastor Abidan Shah
This weekend, we will take a look at another roadblock to having the mind of Christ: an “ENVIOUS MIND.” When you are constantly looking at others and comparing yourself or what you have, the process of God working in your heart is halted. Envy is the enemy of unity in the church and working together for the sake of the gospel.

BUSINESS IS GOOD (Article) by Abidan Paul Shah
“Local business gives back.” “I like to support companies that give back.” “We feel that we need to give back to our community.” It seems that “giving back” is the new litmus test for being a good business. It is assumed that most businesses are basically bad because they only take from the people. Behind such thinking is the idea that deceiving people is the only way that businesses grow and their owners get rich. Hence, “giving back” is the moral way to come clean and make things right.
Is this really true? This article will help you understand the truth.
