     | 3,003 views

    What legalising of gay sex (once forbidden) in more and more countries actually points to? Didn't our Lord say the "days of Lot shall return before His Second coming"!!!

    Gay sex and all that!!! Whatever has happened to our great country of India known for it's rich spiritual heritage!!! On Sept 6th, 2018 India had the dubious distinction of becoming the 123rd Country ...read more

    Never give up in the fight against sin and evil. But always remember the power of God and the armour with which he’s equipped us. And pray on every occasion that you’ll be able to stand firm.

    Do you remember when we looked at Paul’s prayer in Eph 3 that I commented how difficult it is to achieve the sort of unity that God wants from his church? In fact I pointed out that that’s why Paul prays the way he does: because only by God’s power can this miracle come about. Paul knows that apart ...read more

    Confession is a key part of our prayer life. But was it about confession that improves our prayer life, and how can we learn to confess our sins so that our prayers are more effective?

    (This was the 2nd of two sermons preached by our Associate Minister Scott Jewell while I was in Israel) Open with the Lord’s prayer from Matthew 6:9-13 We’re continuing to learn from the Lord’s prayer by using the acronym ACTS. As a refresher, the acronym represents four parts ...read more

    When something breaks in your life we are forever trying to find a way to repair it. Sometimes that is okay if it is a light bulb that you need to replace. But what about when your peace is broken. It is most likely above your pay grade. It may take something greater than you to repair it!

    Mighty People of Valor The late Joseph P. Kennedy – the father of John Fitzgerald Kennedy – our 35th president of the United States – Is noted for the popular power phrase… "When the going gets tough – the tough get going!" It sounds real good and it envisions people reaching down deep ...read more

     | 10,841 views

    We remember what matters to us. God asks us to remember what He has done for us, but our attachment to money competes with that memory. We need to remember what God has done among us and that His mission is for all to experience it. That will loosen ou

    Memory is a very tricky thing. You never know what you will remember and what you will forget. The other day one of my friends told me if he is in a group and he is asked to introduce the members of the group, by the time he gets halfway around the room he is forgetting the names of people he ...read more

    Last week we looked at the difference between worshiping false gods and the one, true God as well as looking at the differences between the false gospel and the real gospel. Today, I will focus on how Jesus is the real thing and Satan is not.

    THE REAL THING (part two) Recap: Last week we looked at the difference between worshiping false gods and the one, true God. We saw God warning his people to not have images of God or to worship idols of wood and stone. And God told them what would happen if they did. He told them they would find ...read more

    God is reminding us that trials are a part of the Christian life. Jesus never glossed over the challenges we face as His children. God reminds us that whatever trial we face, He is there waiting for us to turn it over to Him and stand strong.

    I want you all to think back with me as we begin this morning. Many of us looked forward to leaving high school behind with all of its challenges. Then we began to experience a whole new set of challenges in college or in the workplace. We began wondering what direction we were going to take in ...read more

    Just as Jonah slept through the raging storm there were others in the Bible who also slept for various reasons. Today if the church does not wake up and continues to be in slumber of any sort, we will become easy targets of the evil one.

    We read in Jonah 1:5-6, And the mariners were afraid, and cried every man unto his god; and they cast forth the wares that were in the ship into the sea, to lighten it unto them. But Jonah was gone down into the innermost parts of the ship; and he lay, and was fast asleep. So the shipmaster came to ...read more
