    Paul's welcome in Thessalonica was less than favorable. Although he had been ill-treated while there, being forced to flee for fear of harm, his commitment and love for the church never diminished.

In that day, Thessalonica was the prominent seaport and capital city of the Roman province of ...read more

    Paul had experienced much success in ministry, and yet he knew he had not arrived. He resolved to release the past, embrace the present, and anticipate the future. We must continue to seek all the Lord has for us. We cannot be complacent or satisfied.

    Committed to Serve Philippians 3:12-16 As you study the life of Paul, you realize the opportunities he once enjoyed. As far as men were concerned, Paul once had it all – power, position, and prestige. He was a rising star with a bright future within the religious elite in Jerusalem. All of ...read more

     | 5,734 views

    There's a saying, "Freedom's never free." We live in the freest country in the world, but what do we do with that freedom. As the Church, are we seeking to be a blessing so that through us God can truly bless the USA?

    INTRODUCTION: In Lee Greenwood’s signature ultra-patriotic song “God Bless the USA” he says these words: If tomorrow all my things were gone,I'd worked for all my life. And I had to start again,With just my children and my wife. I'd thank my lucky stars,To be livin' here ...read more

    Immediately following his instruction for ordaining elders in each city, Paul revealed the great need to have elders in place within the churches - false doctrine, immorality, and idolatry. It was imperative the church be able to deal with the many challenges she faced.

    The Marathon Of Life

     | 5,642 views

    Many believers finish their race of faith and graduate to heaven. Fewer believers finish their race of faith WELL, and graduate. What is the difference? What can we do to ensure that we finish well? Life is a marathon, and thus needs stamina and endurance to finish. It is not a sprint.

    The Marathon of Life Pastor Paddick Van Zyl 23-06-2020 Sermon Outline Introduction I came across the fowling written by J. Michael Shannon on the topic of running: “According to news reports, a 100-year-old British man has become the world’s oldest marathon runner, completing a race in Canada. ...read more
