    Moses had witnessed those who had lived many years, carrying the wealth and riches of Egypt, but they all died in the wilderness and failed to receive the promises of God. Moses prays "So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom."

    First in a series of "Purpose-Driven" messages. This one talks about why we are here; our purpose; and our ultimate value as Christians.

    All of us have questions about why we exist. I think the two most asked questions about our lives are: a) The question of reason - "Why am I here?" b) The question of value - "Do I really matter?" Now, if you go around asking different people these questions, you will get many different ...read more

    Jonah did not perceive God’s heart and thereby failed to rejoice when God’s purposes were accomplished in Nineveh. We as a church must have our hearts beat as one with that of God’s and fulfill His purposes to reach the lost and bring them into God’s Kingdom.

    We read in Jonah 4:5, “Jonah went out east of the city and sat down. He made a shelter for himself and sat in its shade, waiting to see what would happen to Nineveh.” (GNB) In this series we are studying the life of Jonah and comparing it with the church of today, thereby trying to learn some ...read more

    One of my favorite preachers, John Piper said, "God is most glorified in us when we are most satisfied in Him." Do you agree? We are to love God with all of our being and desire Him more than anything or anyone else in this world. Let’s examine Psalm 63 t

    Finding Satisfaction in God John Piper has said, "God is most glorified in us when we are most satisfied in Him." Do you agree? Let’s first look at what it means to “glorify God.” What exactly does this mean for us today? What do we mean when we say the “glory of God”? God desires to make Himself ...read more

    In his letter to the Church at Philippi, Apostle Paul emphasizes the connection between our gratitude towards God and the peace it brings to our mind.

    Today, I want to talk about something that is on everyone's mind this time of year: gratitude. Whether you are a Christian or not, the question "What are you thankful for?" is something we all ponder. We instinctively know that being grateful is good for our well-being, both physically and ...read more
