    Every Christian faces real life problems. Just because you accepted Jesus doesn't mean you will be immune to suffering, pain, and trouble in life. In this message we study how Hannah overcame her real life problem.

    “Faith for Real Life Problems” (1 Sam 1:1-2 NIV) "There was a certain man from Ramathaim, a Zuphite from the hill country of Ephraim, whose name was Elkanah son of Jeroham, the son of Elihu, the son of Tohu, the son of Zuph, an Ephraimite. {2} He had two wives; one was called Hannah ...read more

    Our society values inclusiveness and acceptance. But sometimes the Bible presents us with a God that divides and separates. James 4:1=12 seems to be one of these passages. Or, is it?

    In our society one of the worst things that can be said of us is, “They are so divisive”. Our society is all about inclusiveness. We are all about acceptance; all about respecting differences; all about making room for all. That is what makes preaching from James 4:1-12 difficult. It is so ...read more

    Do you ever get down, depressed or discouraged? Being depressed or discouraged doesn't make you a bad or a weak Christian. When you're discouraged and tempted to quit or give up four steps you need to to take are: pray, trust; commit, and work.
