    Our passage is about David’s top 3 mighty warriors. Here, we see three men who would not permit circumstances to defeat them. If we had people with attitude like these in our church, we would be able to further the Kingdom of God effectively.

    Intro: In I Sam. 22:1-2 we see David gathered needy people – the distressed, those who were in debt, the discontented. David took this group of 400 men who were a liability to him. Yet, he built a mighty army for God. Later, there were 600 such valiant men (I Sam. 27:2); of which 37 were ...read more

    Does it matter what a church teaches or are all doctrines about God, the church and the Christian life equally true? If all doctrines are equally true, then why did the Apostle Paul write to churches and individuals warning them to beware of false teachers and false teaching?

As I mentioned two weeks ago, there is always a need to return to the basics and strengthen the foundation, and that is something we will ...read more

    Within the church there has been a great influx of human psychology mixed with Scripture. This has resulted in a convoluted understanding of the human mind and heart, as they are examined and studied from man’s perspective, rather than from God’s.
