    This sermon teaches about breaking free and staying free of the power of sin, habits and generational curses.

    Introduction: Prisioners yearn for freedom, as do people who are enslaved by sin. They want to be free from the sins that make their lives miserable. Jesus tells of a way to have that freedom - "know the truth." Jesus is "the truth" (John 14:6). Truth is not an abstract concept; it’s a ...read more

    When we pray, we know that our prayers will be answered because of who God is, not because of who we are. We affirm our faith with the word, "Amen," which means "it shall be done!"

    Matthew 6:9-15, and Mark 9:2-8 “For Thine is the Kingdom, and the Power, and the Glory Forever and Ever. Amen.” INTRODUCTION People pronounce the word, “Amen” differently. Some people use a long “A,” while others use an “ah.” Do you know the difference? Amen—long “A”—is said, while amen with ...read more

    An exploration of the availability of wisdom to all who seek it.

    Introduction: It’s a shame that so many people immediately tune out when you start talking about wisdom. To them, wisdom is theoretical, academic book knowledge that has nothing to do with the real world. Yet that is not at all what wisdom is about. Wisdom is not abstract knowledge; ...read more

    "they want someone to serve as an instrument and to express their feelings in such a way that afterwards, each one may chose how he or she will continue the conversation."

    Thursday of 16th Week in Course Have you ever heard someone–maybe even a preacher–express the idea that the God of the OT is a God of judgement and vengeance, and the God of Jesus is a God of mercy and love? Some of us may have held that opinion during our life. A famous early ...read more

    We should constantly ask God to reveal to us those ways in which we may be overlooking the opportunities to be like Christ and Mary in our daily lives.

    Thursday of second week in Lent 2017 Joy of the Gospel Many people think that Jesus made up the parables, that He was a kind of novelist. I belong to a school of thought that sees Jesus as one acutely aware of what is going on around him, and who understands as nobody else does what is behind ...read more

    Rain On Me

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Apr 25, 2024

    We are living in similar days like the days of Elijah the prophet. What needs to be revived are MIRACLES, DOUBLE-ANOINTING and THE HARVEST in our churches. You and I have a major role to play.

    Apparently, the days of Elijah were filled with trials, famine (of the Word), drought, peril, apostasy, Baal worship and discouragement but this did not dissuade the prophet Elijah from doing the work that God assigned him and so must the church (we) today. We as a church and our nation are living ...read more

    Nine times in the NT we are called to love one another. It is echoed by 3 authors in 4 books. It is the one principle on which all the other one anothers depend.It is also the only one another that comes directly from the lips of Jesus.

    Service Opening: What is it in Jesus that so draws people, that wins their allegiance away from every other master, makes them ready to leave all for his sake, and to follow him through peril and sacrifice even to death? Is it his wonderful teaching? Those who heard him declared, “no man ...read more
