    God has given you a unique personality. He has wired you with a unique personal style which he doesn’t necessarily want to change but to use for His kingdom work.

    Finding Your Place 1 Corinthians 12:12-27


 Paul Fritz writes, One afternoon, one of my seminary students took me to the Jos Museum. He said, ``Sir, I want to show you something my father made!’’ Naive as I was in those early years of being in Africa, I thought he would show me ...read more

    The Call To Holiness

    Contributed by Ian Hyde on Mar 26, 2019
    based on 2 ratings
     | 5,999 views

    The call to holiness is one which we all share. But none of us are called because we are good enough. In fact, by our own efforts none of us could ever be good enough. And yet each of us is called to a purpose greater than any of us could imagine.

    A Strange Encounter Imagine for a moment a young woman waking early, just before dawn to begin her daily chores. Still groggy with sleep though the morning is cold and quiet, she feeds the animals, and gathers water for the day’s washing. As she fills her bucket at the well, she imagines the life ...read more

    A sermon for the Sanctity of Human Life Sunday (after reading and meditating on this sermon from Sermon Central's Ed Wood at: http://www.sermoncentral.com/sermons/gods-hand-in-creating-life-ed-wood-sermon-on-abortion-98204.asp I had enough for a sermon)

    HoHum: There were 3 preachers in Barnie’s Coffee shop discussing the time when life begins. They each gave their opinion of when life begins. One preacher said "Life begins when the child takes his/her first breath." The other said "NO," then he finished, "It begins when the child is ...read more

    Generosity #3 Series

    Contributed by Robert Butler on Oct 16, 2019
     | 2,637 views

    Generosity is commitment to the Lord that represents your oath. It’s a heart issue, a trust issue, a love issue, a faith issue and a power issue.

    It’s the story of God’s generosity as shared throughout the Bible. We have been calling this story 247365. A story of different types of generosity told through the widow’s mite (who gave out of her poverty), Zaccheaus (who gave all he and so called him “all in”) and today, we will talk about ...read more

    Down But Not Out!

    Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Jun 3, 2018
    based on 4 ratings
     | 17,315 views

    When it comes to suffering, Paul calls us to forsake pity parties and glorify God. We can remember that Jesus shines through us, that our weaknesses glorify God, that we may be down but never out, and that our sufferings may bring eternal life to others.

    2 Corinthians 4:5-12 Down but Not Out! A Christian need never suffer. At least that’s what some preachers might tell you. However, that is not the message of scripture. Jesus said, “If they persecuted me, they will persecute you also” (John 15:20). We should expect no better treatment than that ...read more

    In the next moments, we'll explore the vastness of God's grace as revealed to us in Ephesians 2-8-9. This scripture reminds us that our salvation isn't a trophy of our deeds, but a testament to God's deep and philosophical love and mercy. It challenges our understanding of merit and ...read more
