    I want to preach a sermon titled after a very popular song called, “Singing in the Rain.”

    The words of this song “Singing in The Rain…” come from a famous song sung by Donald O’ Conner.

For example: • We are going to watch a parade, but the rain comes and spoils our ...read more

    Jonah’s disobedience brought untold troubles on all the crew aboard that ship. The church too must be wary of those who are divisive and must strive hard to maintain unity, integrity continuing in prayer and being obedient to God.

    We read in Jonah 1:11, Then they said to him, "What shall we do to you, that the sea may be calm to us?" For the sea was raging and growing more tempestuous. (AFV) The events that preceded this verse were that the ship on which Jonah voyaged was faced with a severe tempest. The mariners ...read more
