    Encourage Christians to always be prepared, keep their faith strong, and remain focused on Jesus Christ, as we do not know the day or hour of His return.

    Making Mountains Out Of Molehills

    Contributed by David Dunn on Jan 24, 2026

    Small, unattended permissions become spiritual strongholds, but through Christ, every entrenched lie and pattern can be confronted, dismantled, and replaced with freedom.

    Most of the damage we do to our spiritual lives does not begin with big sins or dramatic failures. It begins with small things we underestimate. A reaction we excuse. A habit we postpone dealing with. A thought we repeat often enough that it starts to feel true. We tell ourselves, “This is ...read more

     | 12,163 views

    All Children of God will be tested as to their character, dedication, loyalty, and obedience. This testing refines us, is a witness to the lost, and ultimately keep us from being condemned with the world. If we don't pass, we have to keep taking the test

    What The World Needs Now Series

    Contributed by James Wallace on Mar 31, 2021
     | 4,063 views

    What the World Needs Now "is love, sweet, love." But what does that kind of love look like, especially in the context of the great sin? Jesus provides us with a powerful lesson about the kind of love we need to receive and offer to others.

    Most of us here are familiar with that hit song written by Burt Bacharach, “What the World Needs Now.” And of course, as bad as I am with notes, I’m even worse with lyrics, but in this case, I do remember the next few words—“Is love, sweet, love.” And admittedly, the song strikes a chord with ...read more
