    based on 1 rating
     | 10,627 views

    This is a focus on Jesus and his teaching about how God answers prayer. Sometimes he answers with Presents (gifts/literal blessings) and sometimes he answers with something better, his Presence.

    1. Many Uses for Prayer A young man goes into a drug store to buy 3 boxes of chocolate. The pharmacist asks, ”What size, small medium or large?” "One of each." he said, "I’ve been seeing this girl for a while and she’s really beautiful.

    When encountering a tribulation, it is a great opportunity to grow as a believer. I want to focus on four key words that hopefully will cause us all to view problems and tribulations with a little different perspective.

    The Four “P’s” of Tribulation James 1:1-12 Introduction: 1. What is the purpose of a thermometer? It is used to take the temperature of something. What if someone gave you a spiritual thermometer to take your spiritual temperature (1 to 10)? Would it show you red hot, on fire ...read more

    John’s first glimpse of Jesus in this Revelation is extraordinary and strange. I’d like to focus on instead is where Jesus is. Jesus is in the midst of the Church and the Church is in the palm of His hand.

    I was in the Spirit into the Lord’s Day (the Day of the Lord), and I heard behind me a great voice, like a trumpet, saying, I am the A and the Z, the first and the last and, What you see write into a book, and send to the seven churches, to Ephesus, and to Smyrna, and to Pergamum, and to Tyatira, ...read more

    At the beginning of the new year many people make resolutions. Most focus on changing their lives, doing better, making improvements. A new beginning must begin with each one of us individually.

    A NEW BEGINNING “Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.” (2Corinthians 5:17) 1. Many people want a change, and most people wish they could start all over with a whole new beginning. The good news is . . . you can! ...read more

     | 500 views

    As we continue looking at Jesus' High Priestly Prayer, we see Him shift focus to the disciples (and by extension - us). How wonderful it is that we have an advocate with the Father.

    The High Priestly Prayer (part two - John Part 55) Text: John 17:6-20 Well, this morning we’re going to continue looking at the High Priestly Prayer of Jesus in John chapter 17.

    Ask yourself which of the Lenten practices holds the lowest place in your priorities. Prayer, fasting, almsgiving: surely one of these is least attractive to you. Focus your prayer this Lent on that facet,

    Ash Wednesday 2025 What was the “leaven of the Pharisees”?

    How Satan Pulls Us In. How we end up following the wrong gods home. Wrong places, wrong choices, wrong desires.

    Genesis 3 1 Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the Lord God had made.

    Holiness is not only about our actions but also about our thoughts. Our minds are the battleground where many spiritual victories or defeats are decided. The Bible calls us to bring every thought into captivity and make it obedient to Christ.

    Consumed With God: The Pursuit Of God Series

     | 1,016 views

    We are consumed by God completely… while our obsession used to be selfishness and self destruction and we were very excited about that, we now pursue knowing God with abandon.

    My wife tells me that I sometimes become nearly obsessed with certain things. I get so focused on something it consumes me. I fall into the pool after staring into it too long. Are you like that? I have a bit of an obsessive, addictive personality. I want it and I want more. I want to learn more. ...read more

     | 5,035 views

    This message walks through the "disciple's prayer" as given to them by Jesus. The message identifies several elements that will create a proper soil for a rich prayer life.

    Jesus' disciples come to him and ask him to teach them to pray. Matthew 6 records Jesus' response: “And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward ...read more
