    based on 4 ratings
     | 18,630 views

    Mother’s Day isn’t a day of celebration for all women and Elizabeth experienced what it was like to be childless, to have a child and to lose a child

    Mother’s Days for Elizabeth It is a familiar story and one that fits with Mother’s Day. A woman who wasn’t supposed to be a mother becomes a mother. It is one of the most familiar stories in the Bible but a story that is over shadowed by another story and gets lost. We are all familiar with the ...read more

     | 5,361 views

    In Week two of this series we look at how Jesus shaped our view of "The Least of These"

    Who is this Man? The Least of Theses It was John Lennon who said, “Jesus was all right, but his disciples were thick and ordinary. It's them twisting it that ruins it for me.” And from what I hear when I talk to people and read what people have to say about Jesus that seems to be the ...read more

    When you haven't got a prayer, remind God that His interests are at stake: ask God to remember His people; ask God to remember His purpose; and ask God to remember His promise.

    There was once a small town which had no liquor stores. Eventually, though, someone built a nightclub right on the main street through town. This so upset the members in one of the churches that they conducted several all-night prayer meetings. They asked the Lord to “burn down that den of ...read more

    How We Pray Is Important

    Contributed by Daren Mitchell on Sep 23, 2012
     | 3,406 views

    I pray we will fail in our pursuit of happiness and that as our focus transforms from the selfish to the holy we will become more and more in tune with His Spirit, with His mission to reach and serve the world around us for His Son.

    For the last two weeks we’ve been talking about prayer. The first week we discussed Daniel and how he showed us through his story that prayer matters. We discovered that prayer matters because it helps us to rely on God’s mercy. Because it helps us to confess sin and ask for mercy ...read more

    based on 1 rating

    To be wholly devoted to God, we must have wholly devoted eyes. To have wholly devoted eyes we must have eyes that are focused on God, closed to evil, and open to the needs of others.

    This message looks at what happens when we behave the way we are supposed to behave.

    Over the past four weeks I’ve been speaking about what Jesus said about our behaviour, and if you were looking for a specific list of what we can do and can’t do you’ve been disappointed. Jesus didn’t provide a detailed list but instead insisted that our relationship with ...read more
