What were the Old Testament prophets expecting Christmas to be like?  What were they looking for in the coming of the Messiah hundreds of years before Jesus was born?  Beginning November 24, Senior Pastor, Dr. Greg Ammons, will preach through a Christmas sermon series that looks at what these Godly men of the past saw in Baby Jesus to come.  Celebrate this Christmas in a new, fresh way by looking back hundreds of years and rejoicing with those who knew Jesus so well. 

Series (September 1-October 27)
What do you do whenever you have a mountain in your life? We usually dread these rugged peaks. Have you ever considered that God may use mountains in powerful, positive ways in your life? On eight different occasions in the Gospels, we are told that Jesus encountered mountains. Senior Pastor Dr. Greg Ammons will look at all eight of these times from the life of Jesus to see how we deal with mountains of our own.  Sometimes we climb them. Sometimes we cross them. Sometimes we move them.

Series (March 17-May 12)
Are there questions you have always wondered but did not really want to ask? Maybe you have questions about why Christians believe as they do on a subject. Perhaps you wonder what the Bible actually says about a particular topic. If you could get a friend to ask the question, you would be interested in hearing the answer. Dr. Greg Ammons will answer some of these tough questions in an 8-week sermon series entitled, “Asking for a Friend.” 

How was Jesus known among the people of His day? What was it about Him that made the crowds flock to Him and the common person love Him? What can we learn in 2019 from the way in which Jesus approached the people of His day? One phrase in one verse of the Bible gives us a clue. During the Sunday morning worship services for February, Dr. Greg Ammons will take a look at a powerful phrase in John 1:14 to answer these vital questions.

Most likely, you have heard the Christmas message before. But, have you noticed some of the details of this powerful story more closely? On Sunday mornings this month, I will examine some of the remarkable details of the wonderful story of the Incarnation –God becoming a Person. 

Where is God when evil is apparent and people suffer?  Why was the devil even created at all?  Why doesn’t God do something to stop suffering?  Difficult times cause many today to question God’s goodness and power.  In a 9-week sermon series, FBCG Senior Pastor, Dr. Greg Ammons, will examine the problems of evil and suffering, while looking at the big picture of who God is and what He is doing in the world.

It is a small, but powerful, life-changing word. Yet, so many people overlook it when reading the Bible. All. That word occurs more than 5,600 times in Scripture in more than 4,600 different verses. Many times, God is communicating important lessons to us through the word “all.” On Sunday, April 8, I will begin, “All,” a 10-week sermon series examining what God is trying to tell us through some key passages containing this small, powerful word.

Perhaps you have noticed the phrase in the Bible. On nine occasions, the Bible says that Jesus “crossed over to the other side” in reference to the Sea of Galilee. What is important is what happened when Jesus and His disciples arrived on the other side. “Crossing Over … What Happened When Jesus Arrived.” In these messages, we will look at what happened on each of the nine occasions when Jesus crossed to the other side of the Sea of Galilee.

What is in a name?  Juliet asked that question in Shakespeare’s classic play.  When it comes to God, there is so much to His names!  God reveals Himself through His character.  Whenever He revealed another aspect of His character to the Israelites, God used another name for Himself.  We will study carefully the names He chose for Himself so we can learn more of God’s character that He has revealed to us.
