    Contributed by Gordon Pike on Jan 16, 2022
     | 5,602 views

    It is the cross and the promise of a life after this one that makes this world, with all its ups and down, with all its sorrow, with all its conflicts and challenges all that much more bearable when we know that all of this is just temporary.

    “There’s no place like home.” Who said it? Right … Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz. Why is that line so iconic? As soon as you hear it, you see Dorothy … aka Judy Garland … holding Toto, clicking the heels of her ruby red slippers three times, and uttering the words … “There’s no place like ...read more

    If you look at the five leaders in Acts 13, they represent 3 continents and 4 different racial groups. The reason they were called Christians in Antioch is because gospel has the ability to break down walls like nothing else

    Memorial Day Video ahead of me. Today we wrap our 6-week series in the middle of Acts by looking at Barnabas. Barnabas is in fact his nickname. Now, sometimes we can be cruel with our nicknames. We can call a big man “tiny” or a slow-footed person “lightening.” When we think about some of our ...read more

    We walk in perilous days... the lesson of Jacob's words over his son Gad are powerful. Jacob declared Gad may have been knocked down, but his tribe would arise in victory as conquerors.

    OVERCOMER AT LAST… BY Wade Martin Hughes, Sr. Kyfingers@aol.com John 16:33 These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace.

     | 2,267 views

    Down through the Christian History, it has been a system to work against the Christians and missionaries. They had been ill-treated, threatened, and persecuted, many at times with severe hatred, enmity, and jealous for the simple reason, they believe in true God.

    Acts 5:27-42 Persecution Never Stopped 5:27-28 Threat from Sanhedrin 5:29-33 Apostles Response 5:33-39 Gamaliel Speaks 5:40-42 Apostles Carry out the Ministry Acts 5:27-28 Threat from Sanhedrin Down ...read more

    The enemy may have overwhelmed you with trouble, he may have even tripped you up and you may have stumbled, but being down is not where God has destined you to be. You shall rise!

    Micah 7:8 (NKJV) “I Will Rise” September 29, 2024 Judah had gone through the disastrous reign of Ahaz, who was a vassal to the Assyrians, who desecrated the Temple of God in Jerusalem, who had engaged in child sacrifice to appease his Assyrian masters.

    Shaping The Next Generation

    Contributed by Brian Williams on May 16, 2023
     | 4,627 views

    We can, by the power of the Spirit be part of shaping the next generation and encouraging them to take a stand for the Lord, to speak up for truth and what is right when the world is telling Christians to sit down and keep our convictions to ourselves.

    I was reading an article on how to understand Millennials and Gen Z (born between 1980-2012). This article said, “You can learn a lot about a generation by looking at the generation of parents that raised them.” In a book called A Generation at Risk, a 20-year longitudinal study revealed how ...read more

    Folded By Jesus

    Contributed by Kelvin Mckisic on Jun 25, 2023
     | 1,084 views

    What it means to be folded is, to beat someone up, or the newer past tense version of that, to receive a beat-down. Now Jesus does not physically beat any one up, but He sure delivers a spiritual pounding.

    Folded by Jesus Then Jesus answered and said: “A certain man went down from Jerusalem to Jericho, and fell among thieves, who stripped him of his clothing, wounded him, and departed, leaving him half dead. Now by chance a certain priest came down that road. And when he saw him, he passed by on the ...read more

    The purpose of this message is not to put down or stand in judgment of any particular lifestyle but to open our minds to just how dangerous sexual sins can be and expose them for what they are including what is lurking behind pornography and sexual practices.

    Honor Your Mother

     | 3,214 views

    We should shower Mother with gifts, for indeed she needs to be reminded of our love and gratitude for all she has done. My chief concern is that this gift-giving should not be put down to just one day a year.

    Honor your Mother Give her fruit of her hands, and let her own works praise her in the gates. Proverbs 31:31 Johnny was complaining to his friend about how hectic his days were because of school. "I get up at 6 o’clock each morning and eat my breakfast," he said. The friend was ...read more

    When anxiety comes into our life, fear can slow down our steps and cause us to seek complacency rather than stepping out in faith. Where do you go to have your fear alleviated?

    Jesus Removes our Fears John 6:16-24 Matthew 14:25-33 Two gas company servicemen, a senior training supervisor, and a young trainee were checking meters in a suburban neighborhood.

    What arrogance it is to promote yourself over others and put them down. This message deals with those who think they are something but are nothing; who deceive themselves. We look at church positions and humility and pride. Do not deceive yourself.

    Many believers face metaphorical “walls” — limitations, delays, opposition, bondage, or spiritual strongholds. But the God who brought down Jericho's walls can collapse every wall standing between you and your destiny.
