    "Do You Know Me?”

    Contributed by Mike Bence on Feb 11, 2025
     | 625 views

    Our personal relationship with God is vital for this life and the eternal, we can’t simply rely on what we are told, we must know him ourselves. Jesus walked this earth but no one truly knew Him, we have that opportunity today and now to walk with Him and know Him.

    Do You Know Me? John 14 8Philip said, “Lord, show us the Father and that will be enough for us.” 9Jesus answered: “Don’t you know me, Philip, even after I have been among you such a long time? Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, ‘Show us the Father’? 10Don’t you believe ...read more

    Obedience Series

    Contributed by Maurice Armstrong on Mar 7, 2025
     | 677 views

    God is not a man; He cannot lie, therefore, whenever he speaks, obedience is the only expected response.

    For centuries, "the Church" has taught “Repentance” as the focus of the Christian experience. A daily confession of all sins. But, from the beginning with Adam and Eve, God has always been much more concerned about our obedience--to His Word. “God is not a man, that he should lie…” ...read more

    1 Cor. 6:9-11 can be divided into 3 parts: first, God identifies those He will shut out of the kingdom of God; secondly is the reminder, “and such were some of you;” thirdly, the marvelous change that can result

    When God Turns On The Light

    Contributed by Michael Blitz on Oct 14, 2025
     | 189 views

    Elijah’s encounter with the widow of Zarephath shows how God uses seasons of loss and exposure to bring healing and faith. When God turns on the light, it isn’t to shame us, but to lead us to confession, forgiveness, and life.

    When God Turns on the Light GM. Elijah may almost seem like a superhero when you read through some of the events in his life: He’s the prophet who calls down fire from heaven a number of times, most famously in the Battle on Mt Carmel with the Prophets of Baal.
