    I truly believe that God is, as I speak, in the process of blessing us with what we have been asking Him for. I believe He desires to bring us to a place of restoration in our life. But before he can restore us He has to first cancel some things in our li

    The Healing Touch Of Jesus Series

    based on 3 ratings
     | 19,730 views

    You may think you're too sick, too vile, too sinful, too far gone for Jesus to help; that you'll clean up your act first, and then come to Jesus. It’s a good thing that the leper didn’t wait until he was clean to beg Jesus for a touch.

    INTRODUCTION For the past six weeks we counted down the last 94 hours of the life of Jesus before the discovery of the empty tomb on Easter morning. In this message I’m going to resume my verse- by-verse study of the Gospel According to Mark. This series is entitled, “The reMARKable ...read more

    This Is What Repentance Looks Like

     | 1,011 views

    They turned to God. That's the key, isn't it! Turn to God! That is what repentance looks like. Most of us probably think that we have done a pretty good job of putting the Lord first in our lives. And I hope that is true. Still, there are three things that we do need to remember:

    Alba 10-15-2023 THIS IS WHAT REPENTANCE LOOKS LIKE I Thessalonians 1:9-10 In Acts chapter two, the apostle Peter on the Day of Pentecost was preaching about Jesus, and he concluded his sermon with these words: 36 “Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly that God has made this Jesus, ...read more

    Learn how to bring to bear the power, authority, and resources of heaven to your situation. While it's Super Bowl Sunday for the world, it's Super Sunday at church. Jesus said, “Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.” (Matthew 6:33)

    Year End Inventory

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Apr 26, 2024
     | 4,446 views

    Jesus tells us that when we seek first the Kingdom of God, the other things we are concerned about will take care of themselves. Paul doesn't want us to merely call ourselves Christians or think of ourselves as Christians. He wants to know Christ and wants us to be real followers of Jesus too.

    Opening illustration: Business owners are busy at the end of the year taking inventory. This is a painful but necessary reality so they can know if they made a profit or not. They take the information they receive and make adjustments for the coming year. As Christians, we need to stop at the end ...read more

    Have you ever noticed that? The Bible is not simple, and it's not man made. It's all interconnected. The first verse of the Old Testament says "in the beginning God created" it all. Of course we know from Genesis chapters 2 and 3 that things went wrong.

    In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. Genesis 1:1. In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and the Word was God. John 1:1. Have you ever noticed that?

     | 4,621 views

    This sermon examines believers and churches that move away from their first love (honeymoon love).

    When my wife and I first married I received a rebuke from one of our senior adult members. I jokingly stated that we were still on our honeymoon. The way I expressed myself made it sound as if the honeymoon was coming to an end. This senior adult lady informed me that "the honeymoon should never ...read more

    Before you judge someone else you had better judge yourself first.

    I begin this morning with a couple of questions that I am asking you to reflect on: (Slide 1) Who is the most humble person you know and what makes them that way?
