     | 4,529 views

    If we want to make it through the spiritual battle we face every day, then we need to know who our enemy truly is.

    Remember the cartoon series, Peanuts? In one of the scenes, Linus and Charlie Brown are walking along and chatting with one another. Linus says, “I don’t like to face problems head on. I think the best way to solve problems is to avoid them. In fact, this is a distinct philosophy of mine. No ...read more

    Today I want us to explore this internal battle that we all face on a daily basis, but most of all, so that we can discover what side we are feeding.

    Someone sent me a reflection the other day that I would like to share with you. There was this ancient Indian that was teaching his grandson about life.

    A Glimpse Of Glory – The Transfiguration Series

    Contributed by Brad Beaman on Jul 28, 2023
     | 2,849 views

    The transfiguration fits with the theme of what Jesus was trying to get over to his disciples, that he must die and they must be prepared. Jesus took three disciples and led them up the high mountain.

    Have you ever had what you would describe as a mountaintop spiritual experience? A time when you felt so close to God you just caught a glimpse of glory. If so, it may have been a very emotional experience. Our faith is not based on emotional experience, yet at the same time, when those times do ...read more

    No matter the trials or snares we face, we can find freedom and deliverance through God's love and mercy, and we should express our gratitude for this.

    Good morning, church family! Today we’re going to dive into a message from Psalm 124:7. It’s a message about God's deliverance, the enemy's captivity, and our gratitude. As Christian author Joyce Meyer once wrote, "God wants you to be delivered from what you have done and from what has been done to ...read more

    God remains sovereign and present amid chaos; His eternal kingdom and faithfulness offer hope and courage to His people facing fear and uncertainty.

    Friends, if ever there was a chapter for days like these, it’s Daniel 7.

    based on 38 ratings
     | 5,116 views

    The following is a list of twenty five things that often crowd out our love for the Father. Since Jesus told us to watch and pray that we enter not in to temptation. It is a good idea to know what competes for our greatest passion.

    How to Love the Father More than the World Marks of Worldliness (I John 2:15-18) What are the various ways that people subtly love the world more than we show love for our heavenly Father? Perhaps it could be summarized in the word preoccupation. Illustration: CHARLOTTE, N.C. - An 86-year-old ...read more

    The Christian’s life is similar to the Olympic Games where we are all competing to win the approval of God. Some Christian's behavior is NOT approved, most are told to work toward God's approval, and some are said to be approved while still on earth.

    TESTED & APPROVED IN CHRIST 2 Tim. 2:15 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. A man named Bubba had a stray dog that kept showing up at his door.

    This sermon is for any one faced with the addictions of the world. It is for the dependents and the co-dependents who want to change their lives and know that they are worthy.

    PRAYER: GOD, I thank you right now for the way You have come into my life and changed my thoughts and my walk. I praise You Lord for taking a sinner like me and allowing me to be used as an instrument in Your kingdom. The road is rough, but the path is clear God because it is narrow and I don’t ...read more
