    Unsafe Prayers

    Contributed by John Gaston on Aug 25, 2016
     | 6,040 views

    Unsafe prayers are those which take us out of our comfort zone, which expose us to God, which thrust us out into the realm of faith and cause us to completely rely on God. Are you ready to pray unsafe prayers?

    For those who feel their life is spinning out of control, it probably is, but if you are on the wheel of God rest assured it will make you or if you resist break you. Lessons from The Potter.

    THE WHEEL OF GOD Jeremiah 18:1-3 -v3 Then I went down to the potter’s house, and there he was, making something on the wheel.

    The unrighteous path is worthless, it brings judgment, and it has a destination.

Part 2 Psalm 1:4-6 - Last week, we looked at the first part of Psalm 1, and started by comparing the paths of the righteous and the wicked. - We saw that both those paths have companions, and that both paths have a direction. - This week, we’re going to look at the ...read more

    Jesus And David Series

    Contributed by John Lowe on Jun 8, 2018
    based on 3 ratings
     | 5,657 views

    All early Christians understood that Jesus was a descendant of David; but He did not derive his authority from his personal ancestry. The Messiah must be thought of, not as a national monarch but as the lord of all, exalted far above David.

    -Tuesday- Jerusalem Jesus and David (Psalm 110:1) Matthew 22:41-46 (focal passage), Mark 12:35-37, Luke 20:41-44 Matthew 22:41-46 41 While the Pharisees were gathered together, Jesus asked them, 42 saying, “What do you think about the Christ?

    A blind man had 20-20 vision while those who could see were blind to the spiritual realm. It's possible to have a miracle but not know Jesus. Take that second step!

    THE BLIND MAN WITH 20/20 VISION Jn. 9:1-41 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. A little girl told to her parents what she had learned in Children’s Church about the creation of Man & Woman. 2. “The teacher told us how God made the man first.

    The Power Of Confessing Sins

    Contributed by Susan Mende on Jul 8, 2018

     | 10,570 views

    We don’t take responsibility for the mistakes that we make, but we learn to justify our mistakes by blaming something or someone else. But there is power in confessing our sins!

    Icebreaker: A teacher asks a little boy as to why he was late to school. He replies that his mother served the breakfast late. When his mother was asked, she replied that the milkman delivered the milk late. The milkman, in turn, replied that the cow didn’t give milk on time. But the cow blamed the ...read more

    Contributed by Gordon Mcculloch on Feb 19, 2017
     | 5,777 views
