    Joseph provides a great example for us in how to deal with temptation. If you flirt with temptation, sooner or later, you are going to get burnt.

    If you have been reading your children’s Bible Story books you might have read the story about Joseph and the coat of many colors. Joseph was a favorite of his father Jacob and because of the favoritism his 10 older brothers despised him. But to make matters worse, Joseph also had a miraculous ...read more

    Who is willing to carry the Light….. who is willing to leave it all behind to become the keeper of the flame? This is where we can say that people were willing to release themselves to the Spirit of God and stoke the fire.

    Courageous Women Under Fire

    Contributed by Maria Saunders on Aug 29, 2013
    based on 3 ratings
     | 32,714 views

    “Courageous Under Fire”? Is when you face the unknowns (and sometimes the known) and have no clue as to how the outcome will be. Yet, because of one’s trust and faith in God, the individual steps out in faith and pursue his/her god-given assignment.

    I was having difficulty with this topic because of recent setbacks in my life. However, I’ve come to the conclusion that setbacks are God’s opportunity for setups! Amen! Circumstances do not stop what God has for His children: that’s you and me. This morning, I want to speak on ...read more

    What could be so tragic as to be set aside and declared, “No longer useful to the Lord”? How much better to go through the fires of testing and proving, if in the end you come out refined and purified and able to be used once again by God

    TEXT: Luke 13:49-52 TITLE: THE FIRE, LORD, NOT THE JUNK HEAP! The television personality, Arthur Godfrey, likes to tell the story of his acquaintance with an old blacksmith.
