     | 4,913 views

    This morning I want to focus on the Grace of God as our Savior who offers us the gift of repentance. And what a glorious gift repentance is for without it we are destined for destruction.

    Seeing the Grace of God in Repentance (Acts 17:30-34) “Therefore having overlooked the times of ignorance, God is now declaring to men that all people everywhere should repent, because He has fixed a day in which He will judge the world in righteousness through a Man whom He has appointed, having ...read more

    The Three Cs Of Discipleship

    Contributed by Ray Ellis on Jun 8, 2009
    based on 4 ratings
     | 10,413 views

    Becoming a Christ follower is conditional. We have the choice to say, “Yes” or “No” to becoming a disciple of Jesus. Jesus said, “If anyone will come after me…” Jesus gives the invitation and then leaves the choice up to us.

    The Three “Cs” of Discipleship Luke 9:23-26 During my twelve years of ministry here the mission of the Willow Vale Church has been: “Bringing people to Jesus, loving, equipping and sending them out to make more and better disciples.” Jesus gave us the mission and purpose of the church ...read more

    Did Abraham fully obey Gods command to leave his kindred? people have different opinions about this, but as we get into the study I think we'll have to agree, that no he did not.

    #7~ Abraham and Lot: HEBS. 11: STUDY 6-7-14 Did Abraham disobey God by taking Lot with him? -- We have talked about Abraham a couple of times already but I want to stay with Abraham at least for today. Listen as I read our text from Hebrews ...read more

    OBEYING GOD’S WILL IN YOUR LIFE, DOES NOT GUARANTEE A STRESS-FREE, HASSLE-FREE AND TROUBLE-FREE LIFE; ON THE CONTRARY, IT CAN BE UNEASY, TURBULENT AND UNCOMFORTABLE; HOWEVER, GOD WILL NEVER LEAVE YOU NOR FORSAKE YOU.”

    "When Standing Alone..." Series

    Contributed by Michael Stark on May 6, 2017
     | 10,435 views

    Christians who pursue honouring Christ can anticipate standing alone against the enemies of Christ. How shall the child of God react when compelled to stand alone, without even a fellow saint to stand with him or her?

    “At my first defense, no one came to stand by me, but all deserted me. May it not be charged against them! But the Lord stood by me and strengthened me, so that through me the message might be fully proclaimed and all the Gentiles might hear it. So, I was rescued from the lion’s mouth.

    based on 1 rating
     | 3,752 views

    God came down - into the darkness of the world, where many people live without hope. God provided a way out and his name is Jesus. When we are ’in’ Jesus we are being saved. The rescue of the Chilean Miners is a modern parable that illustrates this truth.

    Jesus told some of the most wonderful stories to help people get to know what God is really like. What a year it’s been! My football team got relegated, we’ve got a coalition government for the first time since the 2nd World War, England flopped out of the World Cup, a volcanic ash cloud disrupted ...read more

    Abraham Lincoln struggled with depression all of his life, but resigned himself to the fact that without God he could not succeed, but with God He could not fail.

    1. The Holy Spirit teaches us that through Biblical hope in God’s love we will conquer over all disappointments. Paul wrote, "And hope does not disappoint us, because God has poured out his love into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, whom he has given us." (Rom. 5:5) Application: Ask the Lord to ...read more

    Do You Have Beautiful Feet? Intro: Last week we looked at the awesome promises in verses 11 and 13. Anyone and everyone who calls upon the name of the Lord will be saved and will not be disappointed in the decision they have made.

    A sermon on the striving to stand in what God has called us to do, being reminded of how He shows how to do so without falling.

    “Therefore let him who thinks he stands take heed that he does not fall.” Why did Paul write these words? Paul knew that this was an issue that Christians across the board would experience.
