    The Dark Night Of The Soul

    Contributed by Dr. John D. Wentworth on Jan 6, 2022
     | 2,328 views

    The phrase “dark night of the soul” comes from a poem by St. John of the Cross (1542-1591), a Spanish Carmelite monk. According to the poet, the “dark night of the soul” is synonymous with traveling the “narrow way” that Jesus spoke of in Matthew 7:13-14.

    TITLE: THE DARK NIGHT OF THE SOUL TEXT: 2 Cor. 4:7-10 “But we have this treasure in jars of clay, to show that the surpassing power belongs to God and not to us. 8 We are afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not driven to despair; 9 persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but ...read more

    Hope In The Midst Of Darkness

     | 3,096 views

    This is the time you need to hear the hope of the gospel, the hope of salvation and deliverance, no matter how discouraged you may be. We can make right choices even in the midst of darkness. To be encouraged and strengthened with words of faith. Your present situation is not the end of the story.

    I have heard it said time and time again over the years by Christian and non-Christian alike, that we are living in dark times. When we speak of darkness it could refer to the evils of untold suffering, catastrophes, cruelty, corruption, and malevolence. We have seen evil taking place on a global ...read more

    The Dark Night Of The Soul Series

    Contributed by Matthew Kratz on Apr 1, 2022
     | 3,113 views

    In this “Dark Night of the Soul” we see the relationship between prayer and action through three things: Through 1) His Sorrow Matthew 26:36–38), 2) His Supplication (Matthew 26:39–45a), and 3) His Strength (Matthew 26:45b-46).

    Matthew 26:36-46. [36] Then Jesus went with them to a place called Gethsemane, and he said to his disciples, "Sit here, while I go over there and pray." [37] And taking with him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, he began to be sorrowful and troubled. [38] Then he said to them, "My ...read more

    Our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ is a good God. He is a God in whom there is no variableness or any shadow of turning. He has called believers out of great darkness of sin and sickness into His marvelous light of life eternal and abundance.

    At Cadillac Mountain, dawn hits that ridge before the rest of the country. Isaiah 9 speaks to a people in predawn darkness and promises a light that breaks in. Advent says that light has a name, Jesus, and His coming turns yokes into freedom, fear into joy, and night into morning.

    You know, I recently had the chance to take a trip to Acadia National Park in Maine. And there's this place there, Cadillac Mountain in Acadia National Park - where you can be the first person in America to see the sunrise. Imagine that. Wouldn’t that be cool to be able to say that you were one ...read more

    Psalm 88 reveals faithful lament in unrelenting darkness, showing God’s presence in despair and Christ’s promise to carry us toward the dawn.

    INTRODUCTION — THE NIGHT THAT NEVER BREAKS Some Psalms begin with lament and end with praise. Some start in the valley and finish on the mountaintop. Some move from tears to trust, from sorrow to singing, from pain to peace. Psalm 88 is not one of those Psalms. It is the only Psalm in the entire ...read more

Service Text: John 8:1-12 (9:1-5) Key verse: John 8:12 - Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.
