    God has planned for us a victorious life. This is the central truth of God’s grace. Have you ever heard of the definition of grace using the word as an acrostic? God’s Riches At Christ’s Expense. Then why do so many Christians live defeated lives in which

    "we're All One Family"

     | 1,310 views

    Prejudice is a social evil present in every culture of our fallen world. It is holding negative attitudes towards others based on generalizations and stereotypes, resulting in discrimination. It is forming conclusions without consulting the facts.

    The Apostle Paul affirms the unity and diversity of all nations in Acts 17. He was addressing Greeks who regarded themselves as superior race. Race matters only to racists; the rest of us care about character. It is distressing how people have twisted this passage to justify segregation. In ...read more

    Recognize and embrace our true identity in Christ, rather than creating a false self.

    Good morning, my brothers and sisters! We're diving into the heart of a story today that's as relevant now as it was thousands of years ago.

    The religious leaders questioned Jesus' authority. We know Jesus has authority, but does he really have authority over us?

    Matthew 21:23-32 "Authority Issues" INTRODUCTION God is a God of abundance and diversity. Looking around the worship area, it is obvious that we are very different people. We like to make things easy, though, so we often condense our diversity down to the basic essentials and say that there ...read more

    Prayer (1) Gideon’s Prayer Regarding A Fleece

    Contributed by Simon Bartlett on Jun 7, 2020
    based on 2 ratings
     | 6,393 views

    Most commentators criticise Gideon, feeling that his prayer demonstrates a lack of faith. But given how positively the New Testament views Gideon, we should be inclined to take a positive view of his prayer. It's a very sensible prayer, and a great example to us.

    Today we’re starting a short series on prayer, and looking at a prayer which Gideon prayed. It’s in Judges 6:36-40. Introduction First, let’s look at the situation Gideon was in before we look at his prayer. We may think, ‘We pray, God answers. Simple.’ But when we look at what was going on at ...read more
