    FOOD FOR THE JOURNEY Text: First Kings 17:19 "The familiar orange box and the slogan "The Breakfast of Champions" have become more than just advertising symbols.

    The Life And Times Of Elijah Series

    Compares Elijah’s time at the Brook Cherith with military boot camp and how God prepares us for service.

    When you say the word boot camp, the civilian and enlisted, retired and reserved all conjure up pictures of freshly shaved heads, dog tags, fatigues and, as Chuck Swindoll says, fatigue. It is through the doors of boot camp that an 18-year old from Kiowa, Kansas is shaped into a soldier by doing ...read more

     | 10,772 views

    God stands at the end of our rabbit trails when we have exhausted all human options

    You’ve probably heard the phrase, “going down a rabbit trail.” Wild rabbits don’t like to saunter down Main Street; they prefer bolting down trails leading deep into the woods. (By the way, jackrabbits are capable of speeds up to 40 mph to evade predators). To go down a “rabbit trail,” then, means ...read more

    WHEN YOUR BROOK DRIES UP 1 Kings 17:1-16 Elijah is one of the most colorful personalities found in the entire Bible. Here in 1 Kings chapter 17, he appears suddenly upon the scene, he doesn’t have a huge introduction, and not a lot is said about his life previous to here in this passage. He ...read more

    Another wonderful example that our God is the "God of no shortages!"

    THE WIDOW OF ZAREPHATH "So she went away, and did according to the word of Elijah; and she and he and her household ate for many days. The bin of flour was not used up, nor did the jar of oil run dry, according to the word of the Lord which He spoke by Elijah." I Kings ...read more

    This is a Mother’s Day message based on Elijah and the Widow

    You ever been broke? I mean really broke? She was and she couldn’t believe her ears! She was at the end of her rope. Life was hard enough for a widow in that day and age, but the drought that they had been experiencing had been the straw that broke the camel’s back. Well she should have been ...read more
