    Hope deferred makes the heart sick, but a longing fulfilled is a tree of life (Proverbs 13:12). This verse talks about two seasons of our life: a season of waiting and a season of fulfilment. Inevitably all of us go through both these seasons in life.

    This sermon urges us to quiet life’s noise, discern truth from deception, and pursue purity and integrity in our homes and hearts through God’s guidance.

    If you’ve ever stood in a room where a dozen radios are on at once, you know the feeling of fatigue that follows. Voices everywhere. Opinions everywhere. Promises that sound pleasant but leave you empty. Maybe your week has felt that way. Maybe your home has heard more noise than nourishment, more ...read more

    A Good Place To Start

     | 14,726 views

    Second Sunday in Advent: The evangelist Mark starts with John the Baptist preaching in the wilderness. He seems to leave out Christmas. But perhaps, for us, it is a ’good place to start.’

    The Gospel Lesson today is one of the most interesting Advent / Christmas lessons in all of scripture. I say that because - did you notice that something seems to be missing? There is no mention of Christmas in this Gospel. Mark mentions neither the miraculous conception nor the birth of Jesus. And ...read more

    "The Comparison Trap" Series

    Contributed by David Henderson on Aug 21, 2017
     | 5,606 views

    This passage is basically a biography, a spiritual biography of Paul’s life. I think it would begin with a statement like this----I am absolutely satisfied with Jesus but in no way am I satisfied with myself.

    THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS “The Comparison Trap” Philippians 3:12-4:1 One of my heroes in the NT is the apostle Paul. If anyone had the right to brag, it would be him.

    Nehemiah faced many adversities and enemies while rebuilding the walls of Jerusalem. Though every attack was aimed at Nehemiah, he was not shaken. He did not crumble or fall, because his foundation was built on the word of God.
