Grace Series

Contributed by Steve Ely on Jul 5, 2022

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.

An Identity Crisis

Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Apr 26, 2022

Identity answers the question “Who am I?” My identity is based on how I view myself, the foundation I build my life upon, and where I find my sense of worth, acceptance, and well-being. Everything changes when we find the King!

Come To The Table

Contributed by Derrick Tuper on May 5, 2022

The table is more than just a place to have a meal. Other things happen at the kitchen or dining room table. Conversations take place at the table; people play games and do projects at the table. Special things happen at the table.

COME TO THE TABLE We just had Thanksgiving where we got together with family and friends and gathered around the table. We like to hear that call, "dinner's ready, everyone come to the table". But that's not just a call to come and eat. The table is more than just a place to have ...read more

A Dead Dog Image

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Feb 27, 2022

A dead dog is a very unpleasant image to think about. But, if any of us live in fear on a daily basis, the dead dog we see is ourselves. Mephibosheth had an encounter with fear; and thereafter, looked upon himself as a dead dog.

Back when I was in college, a friend and I used to go cave exploring as often as possible. Sometimes we went caving about twice a week. One evening we followed a lead for a new cave that we heard about, one that was in the top of a ridge and was supposed to be really huge. When someone tells you ...read more

Disability: Care And Honour

Contributed by Minister Dachi on Oct 11, 2022

When the Lord God called Moses in the wilderness, Moses was reluctant at first to heed the call. In fact, he tried to use his disability to excuse himself from service: “Moses said to the Lord, ‘Pardon your servant, Lord. I have never been eloquent. . . . I am slow of speech and tongue’” ...

Showing Kindness To Someone In Need

Contributed by Chris Swanson on Oct 19, 2022

“The eyes of the Lord go to and fro to strengthen those whose hearts are committed to Him …” 2 Chron. 16:9 When God is looking for someone to lift up, will He find you where He thought you would be?
