    Are We Fishing For Souls Or Have We Become Keepers Of Aquariums?

    Today’s sermon is about Jesus calling four fishermen to follow him. We can find this story also in Mark 1:16-20.

    Jesus advised Peter and Andrew to leave their fishing business and become “fishers of men.” That means they were to help other people to find God. Jesus was calling them from their useful business to be spiritually useful. How many of us have heard the call and answered? We as a whole need to be ...read more

    As we enter a New Year, we never know what things will be like during the next 365 days.

    God has a purpose in us not knowing the future. God the Father wants us to daily spend time in prayer talking to Him, but if we knew everything, we would not need to seek Him daily for guidance. But many during this NEW YEAR would like to know what this New Year is going to hold for them. ...read more

    Abraham had some tremendous high points, but he had low points too. Knowing that will help us when you are not experiencing victory after victory. Sometimes you do not see everything you are trusting God for, and it is hard to have faith.

    God said it. I believe it. That settles it. That is a bold statement. You can order a bumper sticker that has this declaration of faith. However, are there times we need reassurance from God? Abraham might have ordered a bumper sticker for his camel that said: God, you said it. I heard it. ...read more
