     | 42,408 views

    The characteristics of a healthy church compiled from nine of the most significant church health studies to date.

    During the last 20 years there has been a tremendous focus on church growth. Unfortunately this has created a tendency to be more analytical than prescriptive, more quantitative than qualitative. Rick Warren writes in “The Purpose-Driven Church”; (Zondervan) "the key issue for churches in the ...read more

     | 5,072 views

    God does still speak but only through what He has already Spoken.(The Bible)

    God speaks through what he has spoken Heb. 4:12 Someone has said that the word is like a hammer, it can break stony hearts. Like fire, it can burn up rubbish. The Word illumines our path, shining like a lamp on a dark night and like a mirror it shows us both what we are and what we should be. The ...read more

    Science?

    Contributed by Dr. Ronald Shultz on Jan 5, 2008
    based on 8 ratings
     | 4,085 views

    Does science affect your faith or your faith affect your science?

    One student was denied a referral by his science Prof because the student believed in Creation. A scientist was fired because he made a comment in a private conversion with his boss that he was a creationist. Evolution is a faith and it seems its adherents are very radical about their faith. ...read more

    Before It’s Too Late

    Contributed by Mark Aarssen on Jun 19, 2018
     | 6,746 views

    As a spiritual people it is important for us to realize the spiritual signs of the times that we are living in. By the time that Jesus arrived the Jews fell into a kind of spiritual numbness that led to complacency. For them it was just another day.

    Before it’s too Late Luke 12:54-59 54 He said to the crowd: “When you see a cloud rising in the west, immediately you say, ‘It’s going to rain,’ and it does. And when the south wind blows, you say, ‘It’s going to be hot,’ and it is. Hypocrites! You know how to interpret the appearance of the ...read more

    A Lifestyle Of Evangelism Series

    Contributed by Scott Jewell on Nov 20, 2016
    based on 3 ratings
     | 12,236 views

    Evangelism is a word that causes many of us to tremble. When we simplify the process it can become easier to do. Here's some thoughts from a meeting between Philip and an Ethiopian eunuch.

    What is your initial, knee jerk reaction when you hear this word? (pause) Evangelism. A few of you slid forward in your seat, got this eager look on your face, and can’t wait to hear the rest of the message. Most of you are looking a bit like a deer caught in the headlights, startled and ...read more

    The Character Of A Woman Of Virtue Series

    Contributed by Patrick Usifo on Dec 2, 2017
    based on 1 rating
     | 22,879 views

    The Proverb 31 is not only about the character of a Godly woman, but wisdom in action. Ruth was called a woman of virtue before she got married as an encouragement to all women. God is looking for the fruit bearing and not charisma.

    The Character of a Woman of Strength Text: Proverb 31:10-31 Message: An Excellent Woman The book of Proverb is a very difficult book to draw expository sermon from, because of the didactic or instructive nature and arrangement of the texts. It is also full of parallelism ...read more

    The Gifts of the Holy Spirit are just that GIFTS, like salvation everything we receive from God is a GIFT, not earned....given as God WILLS!

    I Corinthians 12:4 “Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit.” “Diversities”, here, means distinction, variety, difference. Then, this is saying, there are many different gifts, but all gifts come by the same Spirit. James 1:17 “Every good gift and every perfect gift is from ...read more

    Before It’s Too Late

     | 11,459 views

    We can easily forget the importance of time in our lives and how a single moment in time can change our lives for eternity. We can become overwhelmed by the fast pace of our lives and the world forgetting that the next world is just a breath away.
