    Waiting patiently on the Lord is an awesome witness. When He responds, others see the reality of God, His faithfulness, and the wisdom of our commitment.

    "I waited patiently for the LORD; He turned to me and heard my cry." Psalm 40:1 Practicing patience is hard work! This is especially true when we are waiting upon the Lord, who keeps to His own timetable. But believers who trust God to deliver are richly rewarded with the desires of their ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 12,876 views

    When your ear itches then you're going to listen to something, but it will not be sound doctrine. When we judge the word of God given by His preachers & teachers based on our belief rather than judging our belief by the scriptures they bring we're deaf.

    2 Timothy 4:1-4 I charge thee therefore before God, and the Lord Jesus Christ, who shall judge the quick and the dead at his appearing and his kingdom; 2 Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all long suffering and doctrine. 3 For the time will come ...read more

    A message about not being so concerned about things in which we have no control over in life because there are much bigger things to be concerned about. Just as we are tempted to envy the prosperity of the wicked so was Jeremiah but he learned not to.

    God's call for Resolution Scripture: Jeremiah 12:1-17 Introduction: A new year is upon us and if we ever had need for resolution it is today. The term resolution has come to be known as something you promise yourself to do at the beginning of the new year but then give up on shortly after you ...read more

But being in ministry for more than just a few years does give a man experience in both the good and the bad--but is ...read more

    We have been called by God to love Him, to love one another, and with Christian love to serve others with the intent of sharing the good news of God’s love with them. Paul’s treatise on love in 1 Corinthians 13 gives us insight as to how we are to love.

    CALLED TO LOVE I Corinthians 13:1-13 "Love is the medicine for the sickness of the world.” So said noted psychiatrist Dr. Karl Meninger. He summarized his therapeutic approach this way: “Love cures. It cures those who give it and it cures those who receive it.” We have been ...read more

     | 3,396 views

    The idea of Heaven works its way into every culture like the way that yeast works its way through the whole dough. Even in Communist China the Gospel of Jesus is being told and shared and people are coming to faith.

    It’s About Heaven Matthew 13:31-32 Matthew 13:33 Luke 18:1-8 Back to the Parables of Jesus Today we will quickly look at 3 of them. Did you know that the parables are about the Kingdom of Heaven?
