“Investment for the Log Run” — October 25, 2026

Brian Horrobin — Fri, 23 Oct 2026 16:05:54 +0000

Do you give up on someone because they have experienced failure? Do they need to show results right away before we decide to stick with them? John Mark is a New Testament figure whose early failure almost cost him long term success, but…there were those who didn’t give up on him. In our online message this week we will explore this further. In our 10:30 am service at First Baptist Church we will host a team from Teen Challenge and hear their stories of breakthrough and deliverance from a life of substance abuse. Maybe you should check out BOTH!

Being persecuted for our faith and then suffering the consequences is not fun, but it is certainly part of being a Christian in today’s world. Let’s find out how the early church handled stuff like this in our service this week at 10:30 am and online.

“Prayer in Crisis” — October 4, 2026

Brian Horrobin — Wed, 30 Sep 2026 16:12:34 +0000

For some people, a crisis is the ONLY time they turn to God in prayer. That should not be the case for a true follower of the Lord, nevertheless there are certainly times of trouble and difficulty when it is most appropriate to call on the name of the Lord. This week’s text illustrates this point well. The early Church was faced with a major crisis, so how did they respond? Join us at 10:30 am or online and let’s find out!

“Prayer Shapes Leadership” — September 27, 2026

Brian Horrobin — Tue, 22 Sep 2026 15:34:25 +0000

In church circles, we often try to fill roles in the church with people who are willing, but not qualified, simply because we want a position filled. That can lead to problems. In the early church they PRAYED for those they wanted to be in leadership, and so should we! Let’s see how the early ... [Read more...]

“Prayer Fuels Boldness” — September 20, 2026

Brian Horrobin — Wed, 16 Sep 2026 18:12:37 +0000

The growth of the early church didn’t come easily, as they faced much opposition from the religious rulers of that day. Nevertheless, when they covenanted to prayer together, the power of God came upon them and they became much bolder and outspoken in their faith. We can all take a lesson from their efforts, and ...

“The Worth of the Wait” — September 13, 2026

Pastor Brian will begin a 6-part sermon series from the Book of Acts on the subject of prayer. This week’s message focuses on the critical stage of “waiting” on God for those things that we bring to Him in prayer. The early church practiced this discipline, and so must we.

“Be Careful What You Ask For” — August 16, 2026

Brian Horrobin — Tue, 11 Aug 2026 15:51:18 +0000

Israel rejected God as their leader and asked for a king, just like all the nations around them. Samuel warned them but they had their minds made up. God allowed this but warned of the consequences. Things derailed from there. Sometimes we want something so badly that we don’t consider the negative ramifications of our desires. That’s the lesson in this week’s message at 10:30 am or online. Invite a friend to join you for this timely message.
