     | 3,157 views

    My HOPE however is not in my or your vote, but it is in God who with His unconditional love will use us to bring His way and will to our society. The Psalmist said some may trust in horses, some in chariots and it seems like some are trusting in our votes

    What you always wanted to know, but were too afraid to ask! Powerful and balanced Bible sermon on the misunderstood topic of healing. Sometimes it takes greater faith to still believe in a healing God - and die, than it does to be healed! PP Slides avail.

    (Note: I’m sure some of this material is gleaned from Willow Creek - I remembered some of the illustrations from decades ago - before I was a full time pastor.) A taste of heaven - healing - what you always wanted to know, but were too afraid to ask! You’ve heard it said, and you know it to be ...read more

    Prayer, the act of communicating with God. It's so precious of a commodity but it's likely we don't engage in it as often as we should. There's a right way to pray and there's a wrong way to pray. Let's see how Jesus explains the difference.

     | 12,767 views

    We know that Christ loves the Jains and died for them and desire them to have eternal life. We should know something about the Jains to pray intelligently for the Jains and to share our faith with Jains.

    Introduction Jainism is one of the major world religions, but in reality Jains are a people group formed around a common set of shared values. There are only a few known believers among the Jains. Many Jains are only aware of Christ through the filter of their Jain community perceptions, which can ...read more

    Nehemiah is often used to encouarge congregations to build a building. What Nehemiah did was encourage the remnant to rebuild the people and the walls of the city.

    Intro: Nehemiah has always been used by pastors/teachers to encourage church congregations to build new facilities and buildings. I believe that a major portion of what is going on in Nehemiah is missed if we focus on building physically and miss out on building spiritually. Jesus said in ...read more
