     | 6 views

    When your situation seems hopeless, trust God to bring new honor to His name, to give you a new heart, and to give you a new hope.

    A couple of years ago (January 2024), the account for Elmo, the red Muppet from Sesame Street, asked on X a simple innocuous question: “Elmo is just checking in! How is everybody doing?” Thousands of people responded, pouring out their hearts to Elmo: “I’m tired, Elmo,” said one user. “The ...read more

  • From Condemnation To Communion: Living In The Liberty Of Christ

    Contributed by Barnabas Park on Jan 9, 2026
     | 6 views

    This message contrasts the "law of sin and death" with the "law of the Spirit." Through a marriage metaphor, it shows how Christ frees believers from legalism to fulfill the Law by walking in the Spirit and practicing authentic love.

     | 6 views

    When I thought to preach on this passage, it was 'too wonderful for me... I could not attain unto it' (cf. Psalm 139:6).

    THE QUIET LIFE. Psalm 131:1-3. It is an incredible testimony of David that he was not overly ambitious to get to the kingdom into which he had been anointed ahead of the due time (cf. 1 Samuel 18:18). He certainly wasn’t about to murder the one who had been anointed before him (cf. 1 Samuel ...read more
