    Where do we turn when the world stands against us? Here are some thoughts that come from the early church response to opposition.

    There’s an old spiritual song- It’s Me Oh Lord, standing in the need of prayer- and that’s how our drama concludes. We began with Peter and John healing the crippled man at the Beautiful Gate and continued as Peter and John stood on trial. Today, we’re going to look at how ...read more

    This is Church not Theatre 1 Corinthians 4:1-21 Today’s scripture passage is meant as a loving correction from a father to his children. St. Paul is writing to his spiritual children in Corinth a church that he planted and now he goes about watering it. Just like the parable of (The Sower) ...read more

    Your Life Direction From The Lord

    Peter thought he knew Jesus' direction. He did not. Do you know your life direction? Ask the LORD.

    Peter thought that he knew what the LORD’s plan was for the restoration of Israel. When Yeshua said that he would die at the hands of the Hebraic leadership, Peter was compelled to say, “not going to happen.” How many people today believe that they know what the LORD’s plan is? Many Christians ...read more

    Grace From Galatians (4-19)

     | 1,281 views

    As children, our parents told us things that they felt were best for us, but we often thought we knew more than they did.

    Isn’t it amazing how children, in the short time they have been here on earth, seem to think they are able to accumulate more knowledge than us old timers who have been around 60 or 70 years? But in all fairness, I have met some parents whose children were smarter than they were, and that does not ...read more

When autumn comes and wild wings thunder overhead, he tries to join them but can barely clear the barn eaves. By the next spring he scarcely looks up. That is a parable of ...read more
