     | 4,958 views

    Abraham experienced a crisis of faith. He hesitated to trust God to continue. Every famine is a test from God. Can we wholeheartedly trust and submit to him? That is always the question. God doesn't leave us even when we leave him.

    Submitting to God in times of Famine Do you trust in God when the wells are dry? I begin today with a question. Where do you go when you are in a tight place? Of course, if someone in your house is having a heart attack, you would call the paramedics. If you have a fire, you would call the fire ...read more

    Today we hear a lot of praise for the firemen and policemen in our nation.

    And these two professions deserve a lot of praise because they risk their life to protect people in harms way everyday!

    The frustration and lack of understanding of God’s actions in the previous prayers of Habakkuk are turned to a humble prayer of adoration and a request to remember mercy as God judges.

  • Seeing Clearly Series

    Contributed by Grant Macdonald on Jan 17, 2012
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,508 views

    Everyone is a slave to something. The NT gives us only two options--either we are a slave to sin, or a slave of Christ.

    For the past couple of weeks we have been talking about beginning 2012 by refocusing our faith. We started with the idea that we need to make sure that our focus is on Christ—not ourselves. By that I mean that the Christian Faith should never be focussed on what the Christian does so much as ...read more

    INTRODUCTION Over the years, it’s been my joy to officiate more than 500 weddings. Sometimes funny things happen at weddings. I’ve had a groom who passed out not once, but three times during the ceremony. I’ve had several groomsmen pass out—but never a bride or a bridesmaid. And they call females ...read more
