     | 7,383 views

    Jesus came to bring us a peace which can supercede all of this world's persecutions and troubles. It's a peace in 3 directions: peace with God, peace with each other, and peace with ourselves. Jesus bought this peace by His work on the Cross. He is our peace!

    Thessalonica had been impacted by the gospel, and the believers there well understood its significance. Their faithfulness to the gospel serves as a challenge for all believers.

    The Significance of the Gospel (Part 2) 1 Thessalonians 1: 5-10 Last week we began our study in these verses dealing with the significance of the gospel.

     | 2,472 views

    Known for their sensuality and corrupt living, the Herodians were supporters of the policies and government of the Herodian (Herod) family. They were a political rather than religious party.

    Herodians Who Were The Herodians? Have you heard about the Herodians? Who were they, and why is it important to know about them? What was the Herodian?

    A Head Table Mentality Series

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 26, 2022
    based on 2 ratings
     | 4,256 views

    A leader is not automatically the honored guest. He or she must take the lowest seat at the table and learn to serve others. Only then, will Jesus move that person higher. If someone grabs the best seat, he or she will be moved lower.

    This evening’s message is entitled “A Head Table Mentality,” and it’s taken from a parable that discusses the valued position of the meek and lowly. This parable promotes Christ-like leadership over the worldly model of leadership in which power and control seems to be the normal style. Kenneth ...read more

    All We Like Sheep Series

    Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 26, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,743 views

    We, as Christians, can go astray like sheep. Sin keeps zapping us like an electric fence, but we eventually become numb to it and cross over to enter the dangers of the world. The Shepherd will then react. So, how will He react?

    To begin this evening’s message, I would like to share a verse from the Old Testament. Isaiah 53:6 says, “All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned, every one, to his own way; and the Lord has laid on Him the iniquity of us all.” All of us have gone astray from God at some point in our ...read more

    Things have changed much since the first century, and yet much remains the same. Paul realized the danger of majoring on the minor and minoring on the major. His insight still speaks for ministries today.

    The Pursuit of Ministry 1 Thessalonians 2: 4-9 We have spent much time laying the groundwork for our study in this precious book. Paul was well aware of the faithfulness and influence the church in Thessalonica had on those around them. He was encouraged with the presence of their faith, ...read more
