Faith And Fealty Series

Contributed by Joel Gilbert on Dec 1, 2025

As the disciples as Jesus to increase their faith, Jesus urges that faith is more a matter of quality than quantity. Our ultimate responsibility is faithful obedience.

Faith is an interesting issue. Over the years, I’ve heard stories of people who seemed to demonstrate great faith as they recounted the ways that God has answered prayer. One such person was George Mueller. He lived from 1805-1898. In an era when people would pay “pew rents” in order to have ...read more

Faith Is The Victory

Faith is the victory, but we must understand the tactics of the enemy.

FAITH IS THE VICTORY INTRODUCTION A. The world often looks upon Bible-believing Christians as a bunch of losers who are totally out of step with reality and the mainstream of society: 1.

Faith That Prays Series

Contributed by Derek Geldart on Jan 3, 2026

When injustice and God’s silence confuses us, true faith does not walk away but cries out honestly, bows humbly before God’s sovereignty, trusts His wisdom even when His methods are unsettling, and continues in prayerful dependence until faith rests fully in His unchanging character.

Why does God allow injustice to exist? We turn on the news and watch oppressors rise without restraint. They redraw moral boundaries, rewrite history, and wield power with seeming impunity. The innocent suffer. The vulnerable are crushed. Entire peoples are marginalized, displaced, or ...read more

Faith That Waits Series

Contributed by Derek Geldart on Jan 10, 2026

When God’s ways are confusing and His answers delayed, true faith anchors itself in God’s unchanging character, wrestles honestly without accusation, and chooses watchful waiting rather than walking away.

The fading memory of King Josiah’s reforms only intensified his anguish, highlighting just how far Judah had fallen. No longer were the people allowing the law of the Lord to guide their lives. ...read more

What you believe is very important. It's not enough to just believe. Faith is not a nebulous thing. It is very important in whom you believe. If you want a faith that is victorious, it must be a specific faith: Faith In Jesus as the Christ

Alba 9-22-2024 FAITH IS THE VICTORY I John 5:1-5 Faith is the victory! But if faith is the victory, does that mean that we can avoid all pain and trouble?
