    Examining the story of Mephibosheth shows us the danger of being consumbed by our circumstances and the situations we find ourselves in, what would it be like if you could change your perspective, you can if you remember who you are and If you want to kno

    Good Morning, I’m excited to be able to kick off this series called BIOGRAPHY: NICKNAMES Historically, individual names were believed to be a person’s private property. As such, they were not to be spoken too often. So, back in the day, people began using "extra" names to call or refer to each ...read more

    Grace required, grace recieved and grace returned as seen in from the life of Mephibosheth.

    AMAZING GRACE I remember Tony Campolo telling the story of a time he was travelling and saw a little girl all dressed up at the airport who kept saying “I’m going to see my daddy”. She was so happy until motion sickness caught up with her and she got sick all over herself. Campolo waited around ...read more

    A Living Dog Is Better Than A Dead Lion Series

     | 16,904 views

    There is hope for everyone of us because “when there is life, there is hope” and a dead person, whatever important and noble he could have been cannot change anything.

    Introduction: Dog was one of the most an unclean and despicable creature to the Jews; but a living one is better than a lion that is dead already. The most despicable living man’s state is preferable to that of the mot noble that has died impenitent. Thus it is better to be a live coward than a ...read more

    Filters are important because without them things don’t operate properly. Are you living life unfiltered?

    No Filter Pt. 2 - Grace In an age where things that are not real are promoted as reality it would serve to reason that in church, we would tell you to live with no filter since we are taught by our Savior to live authentic and genuine lives. However, I want to tell you that filters are an ...read more

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Aug 6, 2022
     | 2,327 views

    “I will surely show kindness to you for the sake of your father Jonathan,” is a dynamic verse of grace. The whole story of Mephibosheth is a delightful display of grace from a merciful God. Includes us too. You will love this account. It means so much.

    ABOUNDING GRACE – MEPHIBOSHETH ENTERED INTO THE KINDNESS OF GRACE INTRODUCTION When you come in from a very brightly lit room where you have been for a few hours, and into a closed room where there is just one candle on a table, all is dull. If you have spent a year in a cave with no light at ...read more

    This Sunday, I’d like to share God’s restorative plan through the life of a little-known person in Old Testament named Mephibosheth. What we’ll see is that his story represents what God has done for us, and how God seeks us out to bring us to His table.

    Mark Twain said, “Kindness is a language which the deaf can hear, and the blind can see.” Many think it only take willpower to be kind. No, it takes supernatural power to be kind.

    Did you see the recent news article about the cabbie that found $187,000 in cash? Yes, a Boston taxi cab driver dropped off a homeless man at a hotel. The homeless man had just finished living in a homeless shelter for the past six months when he inherited the incredible sum of money. Yes, you ...read more

    Showing God’s Kindness Series

     | 2,509 views

    David knew God’s kindness. He was not undisputed king because he deserved it, but because he of God’s kindness. What better way to respond to God’s kindness to him by showing another kindness. Mephibosheth once lived in favor in the royal family.

    The most famous story of the life of King David is the David and Goliath story. Almost every Sunday school child could tell you that story. But what about David and Mephibosheth? It is not so well known. For one thing it is easier to stay Goliath than it is Mephibosheth. Just try to say ...read more

     | 3,352 views

    I love this story! It’s a story of incredible, undeserved kindness. We live in a harsh world, and while there are stories of kindness out there, it’s far too uncommon. The world will show kindness to its own, but we are called to show kindness to anyone and everyone, even our enemies. But why?

    1. Mephibosheth Who was Mephiboshet? —Background: II Sam. 4:4 —He was a cripple. Our culture has changed certain words, such as “lame” or “dumb.” Mephibosheth was a cripple, that is, he was lame. —He was Jonathan’s son. As you’ll recall, Jonathan was David’s best friend.

    God's grace has wings and fly wherever the wind of divine mercy blows. When the wind of mercy blows into the life of a man, favour is deposited at no cost.

    TEXT: 2 Samuel 2:4, 9:1 "(Saul’s son Jonathan had a son named Mephibosheth, who was crippled as a child. He was five years old when the report came from Jezreel that Saul and Jonathan had been killed in battle. When the child’s nurse heard the news, she picked him up and fled. But as she ...read more

    The Wind Of God's Mercy (2) Series

    Contributed by Wilson Oshorakpor on Sep 15, 2022
     | 2,680 views

    In the first part of this series, we likened the mercy of God to a wind. The wind of God's mercy directs the favour of God to the lives of men. God's mercy flows at his discretion. The wind of God's mercy is a searching, refreshing and restoring wind.

    TEXT: 2 Samuel 9:1-5 (NLT) "One day David asked, 'Is anyone in Saul’s family still alive—anyone to whom I can show kindness for Jonathan’s sake?' He summoned a man named Ziba, who had been one of Saul’s servants. 'Are you Ziba?' the king asked. 'Yes sir, I am,'' ...read more
