     | 14,065 views

    This sermon deals with how we handle life's stresses. We look at the life's main stressors; busyness, guilt, grief, grudges, indecision, and fear of the future. We also look at God's prescription found in His word.

Stress is a state of mind causing tension and strong feelings of anxiety and worry. Those who are under stress often exhibit ...read more

    based on 3 ratings
     | 11,160 views

    “What is in your hand” means whatever is in your care or control. “This question, 'What is in your hand?' is one of the most important question for growing Christians in their life. What you withhold and retain in your hand reveals what is in your heart.

Rumor had it that she could always accurately predict when the rains would come, or help heal a sick child with herbs, or calm angry neighbors and help them to resolve their fights and arguments.

    Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Jan 9, 2017
    based on 1 rating
     | 8,336 views

    Typically, a person's idea of being religious is just going through rituals and practices associated with the faith. In James 1:26-27 God defined what it means to be religious. So regardless of what we think it means we need to learn what God said it is.

    ARE YOU RELIGIOUS? (part one) James 1:26-27 INTRODUCTION: When people would ask me if I was religious I would say, no, because to me, being religious kind of had a negative connotation.
