    This is a sermon that begs the question... who’s will are we REALLY following?

    Genesis 32:22-32 22 That night Jacob got up and took his two wives, his two maidservants and his eleven sons and crossed the ford of the Jabbok. 23 After he had sent them across the stream, he sent over all his possessions. 24 So Jacob was left alone, and a man wrestled with him till daybreak. ...read more

    This sermon uses the story of Jacob fighting the angel of Yahweh to show how we as Christians should strive for God’s blessing.

We are going to find out how Jacob received a blessing from God that completely changed his life. This morning I pray that ...read more

    Believers are in a process of "evolution"- what I call the process of transformation from glory to glory. The Lord designs and expects that the Church be dynamic in experience and operations. Abram to Abraham, Jacob to Israel. One of the ways of practica

    God desires for us to wrestle with Him in order to shape us into the people He wants us to become

    I don’t have some clever fact or story or joke to start this sermon.

    As a Christian, it is a good thing to question, to seek; the key is to ask good questions and seek out good sources for your answers; most notably, the Bible.

    Wrestling with God, Genesis 32:22-31 Introduction Once a Hasidic teacher told this parable; a man had been wandering about in a forest for several days, unable to find the way out.

    What Is Your Name

    Discovering your name sometimes requires experiences of dark nights and aloneness. God must test our behaviour. He pushes us to see things that are not good for us, things that must change. He loves us far to much to leave us to our destructive behaviour

    The unknown author of the following story captures the value of a name. “After the American Civil War the managers of the infamous Louisiana Lottery approached Robert E. Lee and asked if he’d let them use his name in their scheme. They promised that if he did he would become rich. Astounded, Lee ...read more

    Of Jacob it was said, "As a Prince you have power with God." Why? Because he wrestled in prayer and prevailed. Do we wish to have "power with God?" Here's your chance to find out how.

    In the darkness, which we all feel at times, Jacob wrestles with God. He asks for assurances of blessing (which he already had), but instead, he gets God! Jesus also wrestles in the garden, giving up control, and God raises him from the dead.
