    It's quite astonishing to me that I have the ability to commune regularly with the architect of time, space, matter, energy, and consciousness. Dare I treat it as ordinary? Dare I allow it to become mundane?

     | 1,165 views

    The message given to us in Psalm 32 is that there is greater joy in uncovering our sin and finding forgiveness than in trying to cover up our sin. And a right view of God allows us to do just that.

    based on 1 rating
     | 2,755 views

    Fasting and prayer are two powerful spiritual disciplines that work together to strengthen our connection with God. Through fasting, we humble ourselves before God, while prayer allows us to communicate directly with Him.

    Backsliding is a gradual process that happens when a believer neglects spiritual disciplines, compromises with sin, or allows distractions to take the place of God. However, God’s mercy is always available to restore those who repent.

    CAUSES OF BACKSLIDING AND HOW TO OVERCOME THEM By Rev. Samuel Arimoro Main Text: Jeremiah 2:19 "Your own wickedness will correct you, and your backslidings will rebuke you.

    King Hezekiah has tried to be faithful and yet a frightening attack from the Assyrians is headed his way. Why would God allow that and what can we learn from Hezekiah's response?

    Contributed by Youth Sermons on Sep 5, 2023
    based on 4 ratings
     | 937 views

    It's important to keep our light shining for Christ, even when we face challenges. This can be achieved through community, stepping out of our comfort zone, and allowing the Holy Spirit to convict us.

    First off, we can't do life alone. We need our squad, our friends, our community. Remember when the Holy Spirit showed up at Pentecost? All the believers were hanging out together, and boom! The Holy Spirit showed up big time. When we've got a crew that loves us and loves God, people notice. When ...read more

     | 20,398 views

    Christians can be positive because God has an intense interest in us; He has given us a new birth; He has a purpose for our trials; and He has allowed us to live in a special time.

    Are the days we live in any more difficult than the days of the past? Maybe not. Of course, the level of comfort has significantly increased due to the many advances in technology. But have these improvements in technology actually helped society. The truth is, people still face the same problems ...read more
