    Contributed by Paul Fritz on Nov 26, 2007
    based on 18 ratings
     | 6,830 views

    God over-turned and overcame the opposition of the Jews and the Romans allowing Paul’s worst time to become His best enduring legacy. Challenge - Can we, like Paul trust and obey God even when our best efforts for Him seem to initially fail?

    Turning Your Worst Times to Your Best Legacy (Acts 22) We see a lot of reality shows on TV today but perhaps my favorite is Bridezilla. It amazes me how what should be the best time of a young woman’s life turns out to be her worst legacy. The show chronicles the life and experiences of young ...read more

    Dominion – authority – brings with it responsibility. Angelina Grimké, the American abolitionist once said, “Duty is ours and events are God’s.” God has given us dominion over this earth, yes, and with it comes the responsibility to act on God’s behalf.

    Although Christians might disagree as to when the rapture takes place, there are three truths about the coming Day of the Lord that no Bible-believing Christian can deny.

    A Thief in the Night: The Plot Thickens (I Thessalonians 5:1-4) 1. Intro: The dreaded words every English or Math teacher hears are also dreaded by Pastors who teach the whole counsel of God.
