    The fear of God is a theme that is mentioned throughout the Bible. But it is a subject that has been neglected by many pastors and teachers of God’s word today. The fear of God is a very important aspect in a Christian’s life because it is a characteristi

    Opening illustration: Seven years ago from today our country was under terrorist attack and the entire nation was in a grip of ’FEAR’ and ’AWE.’ Was God talking about this kind of fear or some other? Let us look into God’s Word and see what is this ‘Fear of the Lord.’ Biblical Background: The ...read more

    Being Renewed In The Spirit Of Your Mind

    People who live long lives together eventually begin to sound alike, to talk alike, and even to think alike. As we walk with God, we take on his thoughts, his principles, and his attitudes. We take on his heart, mind, and personality.

    Being Renewed in the Spirit of Your Mind Eph 4:17-24 NKJV As we walk as Christians, were in a battle for our minds. What does this mean? You will either be a person who controls your mind or you will be a person who is controlled by your mind. 1. Your mind is the doorway into who we ...read more

     | 6,576 views

    What should we do when we make mistakes and can we become good witnesses for God again?

    We have all done it! We have all done something not good; then we say to ourselves, “Wow, I was really a poor testimony for God with that one.” Did anyone get hurt? Did you do anything about it? You know, this is actually a good sign when you realize you have done something wrong for God. This ...read more

    Recent scientific research has confirmed what God has always taught on what truly makes us happy. We explore four keys to greater happiness.

    The Secret To Being Happier Every Day When reading the September 2008 edition of Parade Magazine, I came across a short article entitled “The Secret to Being Happier Every Day.” Written by Allison Takeda, the article presents the results of recent scientific studies that explored what things ...read more

    Are You Still Being Saved Today?

    A message of how our salvation is not something relegated to the past; something that happened to us "once", but is actively being worked on in the present.

    We Christians talk a lot about our being saved, don’t we? But have you ever noticed that it always seems to be in the past tense? ‘Have you been saved?’ ‘When were you saved?’ I think the more appropriate, and perhaps the most accurate way of asking about one’s salvation would be, ‘Are you ...read more

    God is constantly at working preparing and restoring His servants. This sermon discovers what it means to be a servant of God.

    If a friend of yours was to ask you what it means to be a servant of God, how would you respond? In our reading from Isaiah 49 God reveals some of the things about being one of his servants. Interestingly this reading is a prophecy spoken many years before Jesus was born on earth to help people ...read more

    Most people really don’t know Jesus Christ, the one they are suppose to celebrate during Christmas!

    If you stopped a person today at a shopping mall and asked the question “what does Christmas mean to you”, what do you think they would say? Many of them would likely say, “shopping”! I recently googled on the Internet that question. Most of the answers go something like this: “Christmas is a time ...read more

    based on 9 ratings
     | 3,476 views

    An all age talk: The shepherds heard the message from the Angels and then became messengers themselves. God wants us to hear the message and to be his messengers in our local community.

    (The aim of this all age sermon is to encourage a congregation of all ages to hear the message of Jesus and to be messengers of Jesus). “When [the shepherds] had seen [Jesus], they spread the word concerning what had been told them about this child”.
