     | 2,705 views

    Saints, your vision is the idea constantly flashing in your mind, the dream that doesn’t seem to go away, all driven by our purpose. This works together to keep us focused on what we want to accomplish for the Kingdom of God.

    SCRIPTURAL REFERENCES (Proverbs 29:18) "Where there is no vision, the people perish; but he that keepeth the law, happy is he." (Habakkuk 2:2-3) "And the Lord answered me: “Write the vision; make it plain on ...read more

    Because of their love for God, they choose to leave the comforts they had preferred for the rigors of rebuilding their home land. They were zealous for the house of God and they had left many of their friends, family members, and comfortable lives behind.

    Throughout the month of October, our church celebrates our 125-year heritage. And as we celebrate all that God has done for us, we know that God is continuing to do a great work even now. This past week a young man emailed me the following message: “Scott, I just felt the need to let you know ...read more

    There is a strange phenomenon among choosy Christians. They choose Sam. In other words, Christians prefer to read, learn, quote, talk about, listen to, follow, and promote things written by and thought up by humans rather than Jesus.
