    First of all, do you remember what Elijah’s name in the Hebrew means? It means “Yahweh is my God.” This prophet’s name very clearly defined his mission, to demonstrate or prove that “Yahweh is, in fact, not only his God but the only true and living God.”

    Elijah Part II "Showdown on the Mountain" 1 Kings 18:1-39 1 And it came to pass after many days that the word of the LORD came to Elijah, in the third year, saying, "Go, present yourself to Ahab, and I will send rain on the earth." 2 So Elijah went to present himself to Ahab; and there was a ...read more

    You may be in the middle of the drought, you may not see any evidence of rain in the sky: But Elijah didn't say he saw, he said he heard: The Sound is your sign (The rain is on the way)

    I hear the sound of the abundance of rain: That means my ear has picked up a signal in the airwaves Sound = vibrations) my ear has picked up the vibration of something that is coming. I can't see it, I can't touch it, I don't feel it but it's on the way. How do I know it's coming this ...read more

    A message to encourage intimacy with the Lord

    It feels like a long time since I’ve stood up here, but every time I go abroad and come back to church the only thing I really feel like saying is, “it’s good to be home.” I’ve been visiting the Middle East as part of my job now for about 6 months – and it might surprise you to learn that when I ...read more

    A sermon in a series on removing sin as the idol in our lives.

    Last week we discovered that for most of us in this room idolatry is the issue. Sin is usually what we focus on, but it’s just the fruit. Idolatry is always the tree from which it grows. So behind every sin struggle that I have, behind every sin struggle that you have, is a false god that is ...read more

    Climate change is not a new thing. In fact the bible records how society dealt with it in the 9th century B.C. Two leaders had very different ideas about how to solve the crisis. One chose the living God.

Even in our present age we are faced with two powerful leaders who seem to be destined to square off over God, Religion and ...read more
