    Defining love has become difficult in our society. True love must originate with God and reflect through our lives.

    Love For a Lifetime 1 John 2:3-6 Love is a word that has become obscure and ambiguous in our day. It is often talked about but seldom is it clearly defined. Love is what some have called a “weasel-word.” Love may mean anything, or nothing. It has lost its moorings and stands for ...read more

    There comes a time, where a person has to draw a line in the sand and say, enough is enough, I can't do it on my own, I'm not going to kid myself anymore, I'm going to lay it all down and trust Jesus for every, single, solitary thing from now on...

    Victory In Jesus Series

    Far too many believers live defeated lives. The Lord is never pleased when we surrender to our difficulties and admit defeat. Granted we can't overcome within our own ability, but with the help of the Lord, we can live victoriously.

    Victory in Jesus 1 John 2: 1-6 As I studied this passage, I was reminded of the relationship John enjoyed with Christ. He was part of the inner circle, one of three that were closest to Jesus. I am convinced Jesus didn’t love those three more than the others, but they were privileged to ...read more
