    Whose child are you?

    I certainly do not want to imply any disrespect for one of the greatest hymn writers of the church; Charles Wesley, who gave us, among many others, such grand tributes to the majesty of God as “And Can it Be”, and “Christ the Lord is Risen Today” and “O, For a Thousand Tongues to Sing”. But I ...read more

    Inconvenience is often what God’s demands. If one does not embrace the inconvenience it will be a spiritual peril to him.

    Acts 24:24-27 KJV And after certain days, when Felix came with his wife Drusilla, which was a Jewess, he sent for Paul, and heard him concerning the faith in Christ.

    The Beatitudes flow out of each other. Our poverty of spirit leads to our mourning, and teaches us to live meek. But this is often the missing link in the life of a Christian. This message explores Jesus’ teaching on meekness in the Sermon on the Mount

    (Opened message with BlueFishTV Video Clip depicting a church service similar to a Football Telecast) Quite a production the church has become.
