    Jehoshaphat joined himself to go to war to aid Ahab despite the word of God which was clear that they were going to lose. In this sermon we extract lessons from this story which we can apply in our lives today

In this chapter, we shall consider another war which happened on planet earth involving humans and is recorded in 1st Kings Chapter 22. Jehoshaphat the ...read more

    I remember reading that one of the primary sources of error in Theology is the desire to say something new.

    "There is nothing new under the sun" (Ecclesiastes 1:9 ESV) Week One - Introduction When I chose to become a follower of Jesus, I had a voracious appetite for knowledge about Him, as well as a deep desire to grow in intimacy with Him. I would read everything about Jesus I could get my ...read more

    No Sleepwalking Allowed Series

    Contributed by James Wallace on Nov 28, 2023
     | 836 views

    Sleepwalking is a dangerous practice, because those who practice it are unconscious, unaware of the dangers around them. In the same way, spiritual sleepwalking is dangerous, but moreso, because those who casually sleepwalk their way through life, expose themselves to deadly deceptions.

    Has anyone here ever been afflicted with somnambulism? Okay, does anyone even know what somnambulism is? Well, it's a technical term for sleepwalking. So, back to the original question--has anyone here ever had a sleepwalking experience? How did it go? Did anyone get hurt? The reason I ...read more

    God loves to confound the wise and uses the most unlikely means to accomplish his ends, even when it came to the incarnation of the Son of God.

    An Unlikely Messiah (Isaiah 53:1-3) 1. Danny was born with no ears. He could hear all right, but he didn’t have ears like normal people.

    Jesus teaches to judge by truth not by appearance

    “Jesus answered them, “I did one deed, and you all marvel. 22 “For this reason Moses has given you circumcision (not because it is from Moses, but from the fathers), and on the Sabbath you circumcise a man. 23 “If a man receives circumcision on the Sabbath so that the Law ...read more

    The series of appearances by Jesus after his resurrection culminates in a most unexpected way with a most unexpected person -- Saul of Tarsus. The impact that this made on the primer persecutor of the Way changed his life and the lives of others forever!

     | 6,267 views

    Those called of God are to use their spiritual authority to build people up & not to tear down. Those who have been granted authority in Christ have within them the ability to call forth the true exercise of authority.

    2 CORINTHIANS 10: 7-11 [GAINING PERSPECTIVE Series] A DEFENSE OF GOD GIVEN AUTHORITY As I read these words, I am appalled at the attacks that were leveled at Paul and the pain he must have felt.

    After the resurrection a group of disciples ended up fishing. When Jesus turns up 153 fish are caught. Through these verses we are reminded that we need to obey Jesus, even when obedience seems strange, because Jesus will give the resources.

    Whether we are or are not convinced that Christ rose from the dead does not affect the reality of the Resurrection. But if we accept its reality by faith and live consistently in light of it, it changes our lives like nothing else can.
