Persevere Even If It Gets Hard

Contributed by Richard Tow on Dec 8, 2020

Believers are encouraged to not lose heart and give up, even in the face of trials and difficulties. To continue in the faith we should continue doing good toward others, continue in prayer, and continue in the word.

I take as our subject today, the call in Scripture to persevere—to steadfastly continue in the faith no matter what happens.. Some of you have walked with the Lord for many years. You have fought some battles. You have not done it perfectly, but you have continued to follow the Lord. You have ...read more

Stony The Road We Trod:

Contributed by Amiri Hooker on Apr 12, 2022

Jesus’ “going up” to Jerusalem is a public event, interpreted by Luke as a royal entry.

It is that “slash” day again—as in Palm/Passion Sunday—as in trying to capture two seemingly distinct moods and experiences in one act of worship. It is almost impossible to do, it seems. If we lean toward the Palm Sunday experience and emphasize the exuberance of the triumphal entry into ...read more

When I Feel Alone Series

Contributed by Allan Quak on Apr 30, 2020

Social isolation is not the only cause of loneliness, there are many situations which cause us to feel alone. Jesus identifies with our loneliness and his sovereign grace gives us the ability to move beyond feelings of loneliness to a place of identity and purpose.

Jesus Is Still Sovereign Psalm 68:5-6 When I Feel Alone In these past 5 weeks have you said one of these phrases more regularly. “I feel isolated.” “I want to connect.” “I need other people.” “I feel alone.” There is no doubt that the situation we are faced with at the moment has caused a greater ...read more

When There Is Persecution Series

Contributed by Allan Quak on May 22, 2020

Persecution, and the emotions which come when we think about persecution, do not naturally cause us to feel blessed. Yet, when we stand firm in Jesus, we can hold on in strength to Jesus who is sovereign when we are persecuted.

Jesus Is Still Sovereign Matthew 5:10-12 When There Is Persecution These past months of COVID-19 have initiated a whole range of conversations and topics – one of those topics has been persecution of Christians. A QB church this week noted with irony … and with a subtle reference to persecution … ...read more

Conquering The Giants In Our Lives

Contributed by Benjamin Utomo on Feb 3, 2021

Like the ancient Israelites, we have been set free from the slavery of sin and now are heading to the Promised "Land." We face various "giants" of problems personally, in the family, and from society against biblical truth.

Before they entered it, in verses 1 and 2, God gave the command through Moses to send twelve men, one from ...read more

The Missing Link In Understanding Leadership In The Church

Contributed by Patrick Usifo on Jun 4, 2020

Many in our community find it difficult to understand that a Christian leader serves those that he leads differently from the world concept.

Today, in our world, the most important subject hardly discussed among believers is the reign and the governing rule of Christians with Christ in the present dispensation and the future to come.  In fact, a good number of believers shy away, not wanting the hot seat of talking about the role ...read more
