    In the first Christmas, we learn from Joseph and Mary how to trust God. It begins by making ourselves available, then treating others with respect, and finally following the nudges of the Holy Spirit.

    Matthew 1:18-25 Learning to Trust God Have you ever been driving down the road, trying to get somewhere with your navigator or your smart phone giving you directions? And you start doubting whether that thing really knows what it’s talking about? Now I’ve had it work out both ways. Sometimes that ...read more

    This message discusses why love is most important. God is a God of love and He created us to give love and receive love. In this message you will see that our physical hearts enables us to do both.

    Love: The Reason It’s Most Important Scripture: I Cor. 13; Mark 12:30-31; 1 Peter 4:8; 1 John 4:16-19 Introduction Do you know that the heart is the first functional organ to develop in a fetus and beats spontaneously by week 4 of development?

    In 1 Samuel 16 God had instructed Samuel to go to the house of Jesse and anoint one of his sons to be king of Israel.

    But Samuel was afraid. He said to the Lord, “If Saul hears it, he will kill me.” Saul was the king of Israel at the time, and Samuel was more afraid of King Saul than of God, because he knew that God was loving, merciful and kind. So, God said, “Okay, here’s what you’ll do: organise for a sacrifice ...read more

    God’s love is so misunderstood. This message looks at a prophecy delivered in 2008 about what God’s love means.

    God is good. All the time. To me. Say it again. God is good. All the time. To me! Praise the Lord! A couple of weeks ago I was reading through some of the prophecies that have come forth here in this church. I came across one from 2008 that’s titled “Love, Repentance, and Judgment.” As I started ...read more

    Relying On God's Love Series

    Contributed by Terry Denis on Feb 26, 2019
     | 7,527 views

    Apostle John reiterates his call for Christians to love one another. Somehow, this is difficult to do but John reminded us to rely on God's love and not our selfish love. Our selfish love discriminates and is subjective but the love of God is pure and unconditional.

    Relying on God’s Love 1 John 4:13-21 Introduction Apostle John is often called the “apostle of love” because he spoke about the subject on love more than the other New Testament writers. The manner of John’s discourse seems to tell us that the believers did not understand the true message of ...read more

    God's Love Is The Key

     | 12,606 views

    What makes Christianity completely different and unique from all the other religions in the world is ‘love’ because it is the only religion where Jesus Christ, who is love Himself, comes to dwell within each willing heart when invited to.

    I am firmly convinced that every human being has an unquenchable longing for love, and to love and be loved, because God is love (1 John 4:8). The love a person feels for another is just a minute shadow of God’s love for EVERYONE! Jesus Christ is the very definition of love itself and the empirical ...read more

    We inherit a certain DNA from our parents; believers have one spiritual parent, the Father. We evidence our family relationship by evidencing His qualities, especially love.

    In Jesus' interaction with the Teacher of the Law, he teaches us to love God first and foremost, draw from that love to love others around us, and trust our lives to the author of love.
