God Made Me This Way Series

Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Apr 7, 2021

Contributed by Dean Courtier on Aug 2, 2025

Many of us have faced moments where the goodness of God and the reality of suffering seem irreconcilable. I invite you to lean into the Word of God and see that the One who formed the light and the darkness is still sovereign, still good, and still worthy of our trust.

"Not A Hoof Shall Be Left Behind!”

Contributed by John Gaston on Aug 1, 2021

Pharaoh tried 4 compromises to keep Israel slaves of sin, but Moses said, "We won't leave one hoof behind!" We shouldn't leave one SIN unconquered, one BLESSING unclaimed, or one SOUL unsaved!

Open Eyes, Open Hearts

Contributed by Reuben Bredenhof on May 2, 2021

What Happens When The Church Prays! Prayer Invites Divine Intervention Series

Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on May 26, 2023

One of the most amazing privileges of believers is access to God through prayer. We all face trials and tribulations but praying will help us overcome. Why? Because a praying saint can lay down in trouble and wake up to a miracle. Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning.

"the Towel, The Basin, And The Command To Love"

Contributed by Mark Zorn on Apr 16, 2025

Open our hearts to hear Your Word anew, and may we be inspired to love one another as He has loved us. Amen. Introduction Tonight, we ...read more
