    The Vanishing Father

    Contributed by Charles Payne on Jun 11, 2025
     | 462 views

    There was a time—not so long ago—when the word “father” evoked strength, stability, and sacrificial love. When a man’s presence brought comfort, not confusion… direction, not detachment… blessing, not brokenness. But somewhere along the line, the father began to vanish.

    THE VANISHING FATHER SCRIPTURE Malachi 4:6 “And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse.” PROLOGUE TO THE SERIES: “The Vanishing Father” Four Reflections Toward the Restoration of Godly ...read more

     | 633 views

    Even when God feels silent or distant, He has not abandoned us. His presence is constant—even in the pain, even in the silence. The lie says God has walked away; the truth is, He is still with us. Always.

    ### **Introduction: The Lie That God Has Abandoned Us** Video Ill.: Sermon Bumper 5 There is a belief that has quietly worked its way into hearts and minds for generations — and it still lingers today. It is the belief that God created the universe, yes — but then He stepped back. He set the ...read more

    Today we are going to deal with yet another LAW OF ALMIGHTY GOD. We have already dealt with: 1. WE REAP WHAT WE SOW. (#1) 2. WE REAP IN ANOTHER SEASON THAN WE SOW. (#2) 3. WE REAP MORE THAN WE SOW. (#3) These are LAWS OF ALMIGHTY GOD.

    Illus: Some folks evidently think they are special individuals, and they are above these laws of God. But as you read through the scriptures you will see they applied to some of the saints of God that was outstanding servants of God. No one is above the laws of God not even great servants like ...read more

     | 1,697 views

    Even in times of political tension, we can rest assured that God's kingdom is eternal and unshakable. Jesus is Lord over all earthly powers, and our true citizenship lies in His kingdom—a kingdom not defined by political leaders but by humility, servanthood, and ultimate allegiance to God.

    #### **Introduction** Video Ill.: Kingdom Minded — The Skit Guys If there is any one thing that brings drama and division to our world, it is politics. It feels like unprecedented times — such division and discord over political views and opinions today. There is so much tension in our ...read more

     | 958 views

    This message explains the supernatural gift of the Holy Spirit, which is mentioned as "the interpretation of tongues" in 1 Corinthians 12:10. Attention is given to how this gift is to operate in the church.

    I. KINDS OF TONGUES Last week, we talked a lot about the baptism in the Holy Spirit and the New Testament pattern of speaking in tongues.

     | 1,039 views

    How do you explain that when people want to curse, they don’t say, “Muhammed,” but they swear by saying the words “Jesus Christ”? Why do Muslims, Sikhs, Mormons, Unitarians, Jehovah’s Witnesses, and Deists all find a way to incorporate Jesus into their religion?

    Have you heard someone say, “I wouldn’t bet the farm on that if I were you?” There are a lot you cannot of people you cannot count on. But there’s one you can bet the farm on, and His name is Jesus. Find John 7 with me, if you will. Jesus finds Himself poked and prodded by the public in every ...read more

    Trusting His Guidance Series

    Contributed by Apostle Dr. Belinda V. Broadnax on Oct 24, 2024
     | 884 views

    This sermon focuses on learning to trust God's guidance through His voice, even when the path is unclear or difficult. It explores how trust in His wisdom leads to a life of purpose and peace.

    Trust is the foundation of any meaningful relationship, and the same is true of our relationship with God. Without trust, our walk with the Lord becomes filled with doubt, fear, and uncertainty. Proverbs 3:5-6 gives us a clear instruction: "Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not ...read more

    That is the promise, “I will be their God and they will be my people” or “I am yours and you are mine.” This is marriage language. And we have a symbol of this we practice every month in communion.

    When was the last time you made a promise? Did you keep it? Perhaps when you were married? A wife took her husband to counseling and in tears the woman tells the counselor that her husband doesn’t tell her he loves her. The counselor asked the husband, if that is true, and he said, “I told her I ...read more
