    Rehoboam was almost a hero. He stood at the threshold of greatness but chose poorly and destroyed everything his father and grandfather had built. Through his example we can perhaps learn to better follow the ways of Jesus.

    This message deals with the fact that the choices we make in life can have a profound effect on us and those around us… It also teaches us that every choice that we make must be lined up and examined against the Word of God…

    based on 1 rating
     | 16,867 views

    We don't mind going to the cross as long as we can take a number of comfortable and convenient things along with us. Jesus does not call us to comfort. He calls us to die.

    Message grounds Christians in biblical principles that can guide us during these turbulent times. How did we get to where we are at? What is behind the national shift in leadership and how do we respond to it? What can God's people expect in the days ahead?
