Week one, we talked about “Faith that Floats.” We looked at Peter stepping out of the boat — trusting Jesus when the waves were high and the wind was ...read more

    Who Is Jesus To You? Some Say He Was A Prophet, A Priest Others Call Him A Wise Teacher. Others See Jesus As A Rabbi. Some Say He Was One Of The Great Minds That Has Walked This Earth. But The Bible Gives Us A Clear, Undeniable Truth: Jesus Is God.

    The world may tell us we are alone, unseen, and forgotten—but the truth of God’s Word declares that He is always with us. Even in our darkest moments, His presence remains constant. We are never truly alone.

    Even when God feels silent or distant, He has not abandoned us. His presence is constant—even in the pain, even in the silence. The lie says God has walked away; the truth is, He is still with us. Always.

    ### **Introduction: The Lie That God Has Abandoned Us** Video Ill.: Sermon Bumper 5 There is a belief that has quietly worked its way into hearts and minds for generations — and it still lingers today.

    Nevertheless, I Have Somewhat Against Thee (Church Of Ephesus) Revelation #1

     | 421 views

    If you had been living at the time of the writing about the seven churches of Revelation, and you wanted to live in the most exciting city in the world, you probably would have selected Ephesus.

    Two hundred thirty cities dotted the coastline of Asia Minor, and many of them were great cities, but Ephesus was the queen of them all. Paul went to Ephesus on his third missionary journey. He stayed there two years. He had two things to say about those two years. Look at I Cor. 16:9, ...read more

    This Could Be The Year (2026) Of The Lord’s Coming

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Dec 31, 2025
     | 833 views

    I title this sermon “This Could Be the Year of The Lord’s Coming.” Please notice, I did not foolishly say “This would be the year the Lord is coming back for His church.” But I did say, This Could Be the Year of The Lord’s coming back for His Church.

    Text: The Bible tells us in Matthew 24:36, “But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.” But it is obvious today that the lost world is not looking for Christ to return anytime soon. HOW DO WE KNOW THAT? Because they would not be living like ...read more

    Part 4: Why God Often Withholds Explanation Series

    Contributed by Rev Emmanuel O. Adejugbe on Jan 23, 2026
     | 72 views

    If God is present and active, why is He so silent? We live in an age of information where we expect a 'why' for every 'what.' But in this message, we discover that God often withholds the explanation to protect the formation.

    The Question We're All Asking We've learned that God is hidden, but not absent. We've learned that silence is refinement, not punishment. We've learned that God knows us intimately, even in the darkness. But now we come to the hardest question of all. If God is really present. If ...read more

    Because we become like the people we spend the most time with, it is very important to choose wisely who our closest friends will be. Whoever walks with the wise becomes wise.
