    A church can only be what God has called them to be when everyone takes on their biblical role of, "minister." Based on a series of messages by John Maxwell, this message is about every lay person stepping up and doing ministry.

    Make Your Move Part 3: Let the Laity Move Up Key Thought: Ministry is not a special office. Ministry is a special function. Ministry is any act of service given in Jesus’ name.

    It wasn’t the faith of this little girl that moved Jesus to come. It was the faith of a father in desperation, crying out to Jesus. Nothing is more powerful than the desperation of a father for his child. THERE IS ALWAYS A DESPERATE ASPECT TO FAITH.

    Part 7 - Matthew 9:18-26 - THE DESPERATE CRY OF MY FAITH! I’ve conducted funerals. I know the kind of grief that hangs in the air with anticipation like storm clouds ready to flood the earth with rain. I know the kind of grief which needs to be expressed in tears and in saying goodbye. Yes, I know ...read more

    We are in the middle of a spiritual war that many Christians are unaware of. We need to learn to look toward heaven as Jesus did in Matthew 14.

    Behold The Lamb Of God Series

    Contributed by Jim Drake on Apr 7, 2009
    based on 5 ratings
     | 9,634 views

    Why is the Apostle John the only Gospel writer to record the words of John the Baptist referring to Jesus as the Lamb of God? We will discover the answer to that question in this topical message titled Behold the Lamb of God.

    http://brushforkbanner.blogspot.com/ The words that John the Baptist chose to describe Jesus are very interesting. As a matter of fact, Jesus is only specifically called the Lamb of God twice in the whole Bible—once here and once a few verses later in verse 36. There is no doubt that John the ...read more

    Press In Like Priscilla

    Contributed by Michael Mccartney on Nov 17, 2013
     | 11,122 views

    To press into the spiritual realm means we strive to be mature in Christ and in how we view things in life. It means we are in tune with God and His agenda for our lives and for the Kingdom of Heaven. It means we push through the tough times of life and in our faith and we don’t quit.

    Theme: ¾ Immerse We need to immerse ourselves in a new way of living. We need to immerse ourselves into the spiritual dimension of life and see things we have never seen before.
