Contributed by Noel Schreuder on Jun 19, 2021

On Father's Day, fathers are honored for being great dads to their children. But what about the hurting dads, whose children broke their hearts because they lost the plot? To these hurting dads, who often suffer in silence, I want to bring a message of encouragement today.

THE HURTING FATHER WHO CONTINUES TO BELIEVE IN GOD AND FINDS REST IN HIM Having good memories of your father is a great blessing.

These Are The Days Of Elijah – "Days Like These Require A Sustained Effort”

Prophet Elisha is on his death bed, over 80 years old in a weakened condition, yet God’s people are ...read more

Strength For The Battle

Contributed by Dr. Jwt Spies on Jul 1, 2021

Knowing that the Lord will get you strength when the enemy is trying to bring you down.

Some of the most devastating defeats in military history are the ones that are unexpected.

Privilege Or Service?

Contributed by The Rev Deniray Mueller on Feb 8, 2022

Do we make demands of Jesus to do what we want or follow the path Jesus sets for us?

I want to set the stage before we examine the scripture: Jesus had been traveling, preaching, and teaching for three years with these twelve disciples. Everything he had done was in preparation for them continuing his ministry – and time and time again, it was evident that they were “not getting” ...read more

The Gift Of Amnesia.

However, there is a contrast between second and third John. For example, Remember, we mentioned in the previous message that some ...read more
