    We have a tendancy to lead people to Christ then forget to do the rest.

    Biblical Text: Acts 16:9-15 and Psalm 67 “And on the sabbath we went out of the city by a river side, where prayer was wont to be made; and we sat down, and spake unto the women which resorted thither.

    God directed Paul to Philippi to preach the gospel. Acts 16 reveals both the open hearted reception and the opposition he faced. We should expect the same when we share Christ today.

    When God opens hearts he comes into them to dwell. Acts 16 gives us the history of how the gospel was planted in Philippi, how God opened their hearts to hear and obey the good news of the gospel of Jesus Christ. This lesson continues our introduction to the letter of Philippians. Let's read ...read more

    When God says "no" it's because He wants what's best for us.

    Two weeks ago we looked at the story of Jonathan and his armor bearer charging the Philistines. It was one of those times in scripture when God said not just yes but maybe. Why did God say maybe? Because he wanted Jonathan to pick a direction and go. God was waiting for someone to choose to ...read more

    There a vast number of "religious" people who don't go to church. How do we witness to them like Peter and Paul might have?

    OPEN: A grocer put up a sign that read "Eggplants, 25¢ ea. or three for a dollar." All day long, customers came in complaining, "Are you serious! I should get four for a dollar!"

    Some "musts" for the Christian when it comes to the matter of prayer. 1- We must find God’s place 2- We must listen to God’s Word 3- We must respond to God’s will

    Do you ever get into a situation where you are trying to follow God’s will but things just don’t seem to work out? If so, you are in good company. Find out how the Lord used a pinball to guide Paul, and you!

    We’d love to get an email from God with our day all planned out but it doesn’t work that way. And so we seek God and move forward—only to run into road blocks and rivers and dead ends. So what gives? Does the fact that things don’t work out perfectly mean we don’t hear God or are somehow not ...read more
