     | 18,900 views

    Failures can be transformed into victories if we only learn how to persevere and correct our mistakes. In this study, we will look on how Joshua faced his past failure and conquer that small city of Ai resulting into deeper commitment to serve God.

    As we unpack Ephesians chapter four, verses 7 through 12, we are going to answer some very important questions about Christ’s gifts to the church:

    Last time we learned that God has great regard for His Church. The church is the Body of Christ. Believers are the ecclesia, and are the “called out ones”. Christians are called out from the world, called out of darkness into the kingdom of God's dear Son. Jesus has a relationship ...read more

    The Bible is filled with the stories of flesh and blood people … frail human beings with ordinary human needs who face all of the same kinds of struggles and challenges that we face … which is why we can not only relate to Paul’s discouragement but can learn from his courage as well.

    I want to start out by reading an anonymous poem called “Friendship”: Friendship is a priceless gift that cannot be bought or sold But its value is far greater than a mountain of gold For gold is cold and lifeless It can neither see nor hear And in times of trouble it is powerless to cheer It has ...read more
