  • Ministry Is A Liability

    Contributed by Heather Cook on Jan 4, 2019

     | 3,927 views

    A personal story of my first few years in ministry. I tie it into the fact that when you are doing effective ministry you will have enemies. Just as Christ did.

    I was 21 when I first set foot in Connecticut Valley Seventh-Day-Adventist Church. I was nearly a month married, full of enthusiasm and excitement for the adventure of “real” life. Totally unprepared for the reality of it. I was well armed with a bevy of important and well-educated sounding ...read more

  • Forgiveness

    Contributed by Bishop Johnathan Hester on Jul 24, 2018
     | 14,523 views

    Forgiveness is powerful. Unforgiveness can also be powerful: when we refuse to forgive those who have wronged us, we ironically and powerfully hurt ourselves.

    Jesus often told people, "Your sins are forgiven." What a stunning statement. Forgiveness is powerful. Unforgiveness can also be powerful: when we refuse to forgive those who have wronged us, we ironically and powerfully hurt ourselves. Lewis Smedes once said, "Forgiving is the only way to be ...read more

    What are the advantages of a life with Christ?

    Romans 5:1-11 We can have a lot of things in life, but if we don't have an inner peace, we will never truly enjoy our lives the way God intended. Are you at peace with GOD this morning?

  • By Working Out Their Own Salvation Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Sep 19, 2018
     | 6,437 views

    Therefore “work out your own salvation” does not mean “devote yourselves energetically to the saving of your own souls,” but instead the meaning is “Co-operate with God in producing the fruits of the Christian life, which are love, joy peace and all the rest.”

  • Overcoming Prejudice With Love

     | 10,990 views

    James dealt with partiality and prejudice in the early church, revealing such attitudes were sinful. The divide in our nation continues to grow, and we must check our attitudes with Scripture. Prejudice will not exist with genuine love.

The level of turmoil we face today has not been experienced since the 1960’s. While the racial divide seems to be growing at an alarming rate, the ...read more

    We have many church shoppers and hoppers these days, who do not have full understanding of what church really is or perhaps they are looking for a perfect Church. Let me assure you, there are no perfect churches, because there are no perfect people.

    BE THE CHURCH! Romans 12:3-13 Introduction: When I ask you what is a Church, you may answer in one or two ways: A church is a building where Christians go to worship. Or a group of committed believers of Christ, figuring out how best to live out their faith. When people come to church, they come ...read more

  • Sometimes Leaving Makes More Sense Than Staying

     | 10,043 views

    Indecision and False Hope is not from God, People talk about the good old days as an excuse to stop discovering the new. God has a plan for us even when we do not know the future.

Others wanted to live in the big city far away from their parents and some wanted to stay close to parents. Some were not comfortable with change ...read more
