    The sermon explores God's divine providence, emphasizing that like Esther, everyone is purposefully positioned for His divine plan, requiring faith and courage to fulfill.

    Good morning, dear friends. Isn't it a blessing that we are gathered here today, in the shared spirit of fellowship and faith, to dive into the depths of God's Word? And today, we find ourselves drawn to the book of Esther, a tale of courage, faith, and divine providence. But before we begin, let's ...read more

    In this sermon, we look to one of the greatest texts in the Scripture and discover how Isaiah’s encounter with a holy God must become ours.

    The Divine Fire of the Holy Lord Is. 6:1-8 PSCOC 2/11/07 Introduction: The perils of idealistic youth. When I was a young preaching student I was full of zeal for serving the Lord.

    This sermon teaches how to discern the difference between God’s voice, our own desires, and other influences. It provides tools for distinguishing divine direction and encourages believers to trust God’s guidance even when the path is unclear.

    In life, we are constantly faced with choices—decisions that affect our relationships, careers, finances, and spiritual growth. At times, the path ahead seems unclear, and we find ourselves asking, “God, what should I do?” We long for clear direction from God, but discerning His voice amidst the ...read more

    I believe it pretty much goes without saying that “God’s ways are best.” But how many of you have a knowingness of God’s ways but don’t necessarily chose God’s way over your own way? There’s a BIG difference between "saying" and "doing" – isn’t there? I believe it was Bernard Shaw who said, “The ...read more

    Walking in divine health is a daily discipline focused on Jesus Christ our healer.

    Our health is something we deal with every day of our life. Our health determines what we do or do not do on any given day. It is the most significant aspect of our life. If you have your health, nothing else really matters that much. Some today do not believe healing is for our day. They ...read more

    A large share of the population, and even of Christians, believe that Jesus was not God incarnate, but a mere man. In John 5, Jesus answers those accusing Him of blasphemy with a claim of divinity that leaves no room for that belief.

    I) The divinity of Jesus is a fundamental and essential tenet of Christianity. It is also one of the most difficult aspects of Christianity for the world to accept. A) A survey conducted in 2020 by Ligonier Ministries found that 52 percent of U.S. adults believe that Jesus is not God. Not only ...read more
