    Humanity has some very real enemies and these enemies often use stealth to intimidate us and to undermine our lives. If we can identify them we will better be able to deal with our enemies.

    is the fourth message in a series that will be a journey of discovery to gain a better understanding of the Holy Spirit's power, presence and role....This message looks at how we often experience discomfort with getting closer to the Holy Spirit.

The vast majority of us over the years have received some vague teaching in regard to Him. However, if we were really honest we would have to admit that ...read more

    The Fight Within The Wall Series

     | 9,300 views

    The greatest problem in ministry is often the fight within. Beware of the seeds of discontent, distrust and rivalry that the evil One can sow within the Body of Christ. Don't let selfishness gets the better of us.

    What we learn last week: There will be oppositions in ministry. • We cannot stop what people will say but we can choose not to allow their words or deeds to discourage us from doing what is good and right, what is the will of God. • We choose not to be distracted; we FOCUS on what God ...read more

    How many of you have ever felt hopeless about your spiritual life improving? Paul’s words in Romans 8 should provide us with some hope.

    A sermon given on New Years Day, encouraging and challenging the church to know our Bible better this year, to work together, to listen to God in the tough decisions, and to learn from the character of Joseph - a righteous man.

    Have you ever looked back at a chain of events and been amazed? 14 years ago I was involved with Camberley Youth for Christ. In faith we booked a band called ‘Triumph’ to come and spend a few days in a local school. We needed £650 to run the event; we had about £50 available. The band came, had ...read more

    Hypocrisy

    Contributed by Lou Nicholes on Nov 19, 2004
    based on 7 ratings
     | 3,235 views

    It seems that this passage describes God’s indictment of all hypocrites, regardless of race or religion, culture or creed. Both Jews and Gentiles are included in this discussion, but the Gentile often appears in a better light than the Jew.

    THOUGHTS ABOUT THE PASSAGE: Despite the mind-numbing brutality of the Joseph Stalin regime in the Soviet Union, his propaganda machine did its job well. Many Russians hailed him as a hero and a savior, including a young school girl who was chosen on one occasion to greet Stalin. Years later, this ...read more

     | 14,903 views

    God specializes in impossible things. When we encounter those things over which we have no control, who better to turn to than the God of impossibilities, because nothing is too impossible for God.

    Jeremiah 32:17, 27; Luke 1:37; 18:27 Robert Schuller in his book, Move Ahead with Possibility Thinking begins the book with these questions: Are you limping when you could be walking strong; whimpering when you could be whistling; crying when you could be laughing?

    Lessons From The Coyote

    Contributed by John Dixon on Jul 20, 2019
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,516 views

    At first glance the sly Coyote seems to be a genius! With every cleverly laid trap and ingenious deception the Coyote meets with failure. There is no better contemporary example of the fool described in the book of Proverbs than the cartoon Coyote.

    PROVERBS 26:1-28 (NASB) Like snow in summer and like rain in harvest, So honor is not fitting for a fool. 2 Like a sparrow in its flitting, like a swallow in its flying, So a curse without cause does not alight. 3 A whip is for the horse, a ...read more

     | 20,208 views

    The blood of Abel & Jesus still speak, but the testimony of Jesus' blood is better than that of Abel's blood. We'll look at the 3 ways this is true and at what the 5 wounds of Christ have to say to us.
