    Sometimes, the plan that God has to bless us, doesn’t always make perfect sense to us, Guess what? It doesn’t have to! You know why? Because it's God's Plan and not your plan!

    This message explores the concept of crying out to God observed in Scripture.

    “Crying Out To God” Selected Passages It seems that it normally takes a severe crisis in our life before we truly cry out to God from the depths of our heart. Our relationship with God seems to have lost a real passion. We have lost the sense of desperation regarding our own condition as well as ...read more

    Last week we looked at the difference between worshiping false gods and the one, true God as well as looking at the differences between the false gospel and the real gospel. Today, I will focus on how Jesus is the real thing and Satan is not.

    THE REAL THING (part two) Recap: Last week we looked at the difference between worshiping false gods and the one, true God. We saw God warning his people to not have images of God or to worship idols of wood and stone. And God told them what would happen if they did. He told them they would find ...read more

    Jesus provides us an image of what the fruitful believer looks like. Jesus likens Himself to a vine, and the Father is the one for cares for the vine. The believers in Christ Jesus - the ones who are alive and receiving life from the vine - are the branches of vine with the purpose of bearing fruit.

    Introduction As I wrote this message, it is clear that things are not right in the world. There are ongoing struggles as a result of COVID-19 and the response by politicians and globalists. These last two years have brought tremendous uncertainty, pain, and have divided people over masks and the ...read more
