    It’s not easy being in government. One single decision can affect millions of lives.

    It’s not easy being in government. One single decision can affect millions of lives. Therefore, we need to pray for our leaders and lift them up constantly in prayers, so that they can receive divine guidance on how to govern. The Bible advises us to pray for our leaders. We also have to give ...read more

    Deborah was a powerful leader, prophetess, judge and mother of the nation. God used her very powerfully in her times. She rose to meet the times of trouble of the Israelites. God was with her.

    Twenty-Sixth Sunday in Course 2023 Have you or anyone you know ever said that some fine or traffic ticket or concert ticket price or something else “isn’t fair”? I suspect that a show of hands would involve almost everyone who is here today. That cry, “it’s not fair!” is one of the most common ...read more

    Can You Be Threatened?

    Contributed by Barry O Johnson on Feb 4, 2018
    based on 2 ratings
     | 10,274 views

    Many in the Body of Christ are living in compromise. They are allowing the world to dictate what they will and will not believe about the Bible. How does this happen? Peter and John's confrontation with the religious leaders in Acts 4 shows us how.

    I was thinking about Bro. Alain’s message this morning and what saddens me so much is how much of the Body of Christ is living in compromise and we don’t even realize it. And I thought about a Republican senator here in Ohio who came out strong and hard against homosexuality. He came out strong and ...read more
