    “Unrelenting Terror” will be a huge issue for America and the world! It was not until 911 that we woke that early September morning to the fact that terrorist are now stepping on our soil, studying in our schools and blending into our society.

    Last week we began this series with “Unclaimed Truth” and learned how important it will be for Christians everywhere to stand for truth in 2009. And we concluded with the fact that, we as a body of believers, needs to inspire with the truth as best we can in this New Year! Today we take on the ...read more

    God is faithful in His character, in His Word and to His people. God shows His faithfulness in many practical ways in our lives. He will come through for you always. We want to change to be like Him. We are to be faithful, as He is faithful.

    God does not change, not even for a moment. He can be trusted completely because He is faithful. • In the midst of all these news about infidelity, adultery and scandals, God is reminding us today that He is faithful, and we are called to be faithful. • God is constant and ...read more

    Go! Compel Them To Come In

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Nov 27, 2016
    based on 4 ratings
     | 28,316 views

    Jesus used a parable regarding a great supper to illustrate the eternal truths of salvation. In this parable, He emphasized our responsibility in reaching the unsaved. We must be willing to go into the highways and hedges of life, compelling them to come.

    Go! Compel them to Come In Luke 14:23 Our text verse comes from a parable of our Lord, where once again He addressed the hypocrisy and self-righteous arrogance of the Pharisees. Having dealt with their teachings regarding the Sabbath and their desire for recognition, one of them spoke of the ...read more

    Can you see the situation more clearly from God's vantage point? Do you need to take courageous action in the face of insults and fearful circumstances? Do you trust that God will give you victory? Remember, God's opinion is the only one that matters.

    Opening illustration: In July 1947, the British Navy was confronted by a defiant but unarmed ship of Jewish refugees - Holocaust survivors - who were intent on emigrating to colonial Palestine.

     | 8,411 views

    I’d like to give a few perspectives that will help us deal with divine disappointment. When we are less than thrilled about how or when God is working (or seemingly not working), what are we to think and do? Let’s take a look.

    Dealing with Divine Disappointment Luke 7:18-23 18 Then the disciples of John reported to him concerning all these things. 19 And John, calling two of his disciples to him, sent them to Jesus, saying, "Are You the Coming One, or do we look for another?" 20 When the men had come to Him, they ...read more

    Don't Waste Your Life Series

     | 17,370 views

    It is not enough to have great potential or show great promise. It is what you do with that potential that makes all the difference. A good beginning does not guarantee a good end. End your life well, to the glory of God.

    Whatever we start, do it well and end it well. Put your heart in it and do a good job. It is more important how we end than how well we start. • This is so true of Saul’s life. He started well, but did not end well. • We are going to read about his death today (1 Sam 31), and ...read more

    Faith In The Fire Series

     | 11,649 views

    The three Hebrew men faced a great dilemma - bow to the king's image or face the fiery furnace. When confronted by the king, they were quick to respond. Our God is able to deliver; but if He doesn't, we still won't bow. We need that type of faith today!

    Faith in the Fire Daniel 3: 12-27 As we continue the Conquerors series, one of the greatest accounts of overcoming insurmountable odds and obtaining victory is found in the book of Daniel. Along with Daniel and the majority of Judah, three young men had been taken captive into Babylon. While ...read more
