God is truly amazing and loves us so much that He explains how to approach the scoffers of this world through Peter.   Speaker: Pastor Craig Jarvis Date: April 28, 2024 ..read more

False leaders are all over this world, but we are made in the image of truth, the image of God, therefore we must reflect it. Truth is too often the casualty of the desperate sould. This is why Jesus came, so that we could humbly surrender to God and his truth.  Date: April 21, 2024 Speaker: Pastor Craig Jarvis ..read more

The world always makes us doubt with Satan's famous question, "Did God really say?" We will never understand what happens in this world without understanding Jesus who came to intersect the world. Everthing within the Bible points to Jesus which is why our interpretation of him is accurate, due to the validation of God in the Bible. The fear of God is the beginning of truth.   Speaker: Pastor Craig Jarvis Date: April 14, 2024 ..read more

Ever wonder if you faith matches up? Peter, the apostle, begins his letter to brand new Christians by stating clearly that their faith is as valid as his own- equal to his. It is and incredible though to know that the faith we receive from Jesus to live for Jesus is on par with the disciples' own faith. This gives us reason to live with certainty!   Pastor: Craig Jarvis Date: March 10, 2024 ..read more

Do we trust God enough to handle those who wronged us? Hurt is bound to happen, but the way in which we deal with it determines who we trust. Our lives are a harbor, ships of hurt come in frequently, but its up to us whether or not we deal with it or let it stay. In order to truly rid our lives of pain, we have to release it all to God. Since God gives us what we don't deserve, we must do the same to others and forgive as Christ forgave us.    Pastor: Craig Jarvis Date: March 3, 2024 ..read more

For the last Sunday of the Sevens series, we dive into how throughout life all hard work comes to completion. Today was the 7 year anniversary of Village Church East, and how much the church has grown with God and his people emphisizes the great plans God has for us. Life is difficult and brings much change, but as time comes to completion, the only thing that is necessary to remember constantly is Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior.    Pastor: Craig Jarvis Date: February 25, 2024 ..read more

Today we often identify ourselves by our work or business, but God wants us to look at His creation and think this is God's world. Which is why Sabbath is a celebration, because God wants us to stop and rest on that day to remind us there is always reasons to celebrate. Man wasn't made for the Sabbath, the Sabbath was made for US. Pastor: Craig Jarvis Date: February 11, 2024 ..read more

When you think of God, what is the first thing that pops into your head? Some may say power, and that is what we dove into this sunday.

This Sunday we discover the greatness of God's power, and how it impacts our lives in many different ways.  ..read more

This Sunday, we dove deeper into how the world often distracts us and allows life to become overwhelming. God's power is, and will always be, greater than any demonic power there is, becaus He is God, the one who protects and fights for us. This is why we have to live every day like it is the last, because we do not know when that is, all we know is that today is a gift from God and we should live as His children.    Pastor: Craig Jarvis Date: January 28, 2024 ..read more

Could it be that there are demonic influences causing Christians to stray from truth? Are those influences in the church as well? The Bible speaks a lot about this warning followers of Jesus to identify insincere teachers who seek to deceive listeners even in the church. This is a compelling call for collective vigilance within the church community.  ..read more
