    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

    The battle between God and Baal - Elijah at Mt Carmel

    Ahab was a man who did more evil in the eyes of God than any before him. He considered it trivial to commit sin and was married to Jezebel, who had lead the people of Israel astray into the worship and service of Baal. His father was bad enough, but the Bible tells us that Ahab had done more to ...read more

    Standing Close To The Lightning Strike

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Nov 19, 2009
    based on 4 ratings
     | 18,680 views

    God will get our attention and force us to make choices, despite our desire to avoid decisions or our wish to be secular. When the lightning strikes it may be painful but it will be about grace.

    You can most certainly expect God to attract your attention. I cannot tell you exactly how He will do it, but I do know that He will do it. He will attract your attention. Many of us face a spiritual issue called inattention. Distraction. Inattention. We are not paying attention to what God is ...read more

    What Causes A Person To Compromise?

    Contributed by Guy Glass on Mar 12, 2010

     | 17,621 views

    Elijah had it right. He defined compromise for us in a biblical fashion – to be divided in opinion, and action. To compromise on belief is to compromise on relationship. This morning I would like to address four causes of personal compromise. Then ton

    WHAT CAUSES A PERSON TO COMPROMISE? 1 Kings 18:21 And Elijah came unto all the people, and said, How long halt ye between two opinions? if the Lord be God, follow him: but if Baal, then follow him.

    Elijah is an amazing example of what happens when believers pray with authority, when they come to God and ask him to do something that glorifies him.

    Have you ever been in a spiritual battle where you thought that you were on the losing side? Well, you’re not alone. The Bible is full of stories of God’s people and their struggle with spiritual battles. Often they thought that God had abandoned them, when in reality he was always with ...read more

    When You Really Need God To Show Up

    Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Jun 5, 2016
    based on 4 ratings
     | 15,405 views

    The story is Elijah's proposed show-down between God and Baal at Mount Carmel. God doesn't want just part of us. He wants all of us, and he will tolerate no substitute, because he knows nothing else will satisfy in his place.

    1 Kings 18:20-39 When You Really Need God to Show Up Today’s story might be called, “The Great Show-down at Mount Carmel.” It is an ultimate, winner-takes-all kind of challenge, Yahweh God vs. Baal. Which one is real? Which one will come through for his people? But why all the ...read more

    Today’s church struggles with idolatry just like the nation of Israel struggled with it. Repeatedly Israel invited God’s displeasure by their dual allegiance which was and is idolatry.

    We are confronted with choices daily. The BIG choice is what to do with God when we see his presence. This becomes a choice about Relationship; Repentance; Rulership; and Renewal.

    This is a rewrite of Jeffrey Sims’ message of the same title. The pouring of water on the wood not only helped confirm to the spectators the miraculous nature of the fire, but it symbolized the impossibly of revival taking place.
