    So why did they stop off at Abraham's place first? Just passing by, saw your light on and thought we would drop in? Lord, let me have that kind of light, but what was the point of eating a meal with Abraham and then going on?

    Luke 3:7-18 “We Change” INTRODUCTION While walking through life, one of the interesting things to do is to observe fads. I’m not sure how they begin or end.

    Many think that John, upon seeing the grave clothes, believed that Jesus had risen. This sermon challenges that view and, more importantly, what we really believe (live out).

    When You Pray Series

    Contributed by Perry Greene on Oct 30, 2016
     | 4,972 views

    This series is based on the movie, War Room. This lesson is a reminder of God's Expectation of our prayers. It is not, "If" but "When" we pray.

    1. A few weeks ago I attended a conference put on by "Strategic Renewal." While I was there I purchased a T-shirt with the slogan, "Make the Church Great Again." Perhaps one of the ways God will make the church great again is through the prayers of His people. 2. We know that God is anxious to hear ...read more

    The death and resurrection of Jesus brought complete victory over sin, sickness and satan.

    Introduction Imagine that Jesus died but did not rise from the dead? If He died but there is no resurrection, then there will be no ascension. If there is no ascension, there is no Pentecost.
