Update from Pastor Virgil – November 2025

Good things are happening, and gratitude is the only reasonable response.

Let His Enemies be Scattered

God is present everywhere at all times. Thankfully, wherever you are, the Holy Spirit is with you whether you feel anything or not. There are also times when He makes Himself tangibly known. We need that, too.

Be Filled with the Spirit

Every human being is made in God’s image. No matter how much they have been defaced by sin, they still have worth. The price has already been paid: Jesus shed his blood, and his life is in the blood. He paid the highest imaginable price, and yet He still believes it was worth it.

Life is fast. Living is slow. It's easy to miss the important because of the intrusions of the urgent. Sometimes, I need to take time to breathe, think, connect, and live where I am.

Guardrails for Guidance: Only Buy the Real thing

Be sure to test out your revelations before you palm them off on somebody else as being from God. If you do miss it, be willing to admit it. It will give you more credibility, not less. There’s no hurry, we have all eternity, and a God who knows the end from the beginning.

We all have our own experiences, needs, and desires. We naturally interpret things through those lenses. Because of this, a heart check may be in order.

Update from Pastor Virgil

Election 2024: Blessing or Cursing?

In this election year, it we want our nation to survive, it’s imperative that we bless Israel with our vote. We the people are the source of human authority in this country. We exercise that authority by voting. We are responsible for what our elected officials do in our name. Take time to research the candidates.
