    Contributed by John Gaston on Jul 20, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 7,002 views

    God's people are not promised immunity from trials and troubles. In fact, the Bible hints we may fall many times. Our victory is not that we never fall, but that God gives us grace and power to get up each time, so that in the end we triumph!

    SEVEN TIMES THE RIGHTEOUS RISE UP AGAIN! Prov. 24:16 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR 1. Some people fall at the worst times. Like the high school graduate who fell down the platform stairs just after receiving his diploma (in front of 4,000 people). 2. A waiter in a restaurant told of slipping on a wet ...read more

    The True Vine Series

    Contributed by Allan Quak on Apr 16, 2021
     | 6,027 views

    Jesus the True Vine is the Only source of spiritual life. For us to know if we are a true disciple or a fake disciple we need recognise the difference between the Father bringing us through a difficult pruning process, or the Father cutting us off.

    Message John 15:1 I Am The True Vine There are seven “I am” passages of Jesus … the last of which is found in John 15:1-6 (read) I suspect there are plenty of us who remember the “I am the vine; you are the branches” part. I wonder how many also remembered the “I am the vine, and my Father is ...read more

    God Has Never Failed

    based on 1 rating
     | 8,270 views

    God can't fail, because He has the knowledge of all possible outcomes and possesses all power, so whatever He sets out to do, He can't possibly fail. He's working all things for our good. He loves us, therefore we should trust Him.

    GOD HAS NEVER FAILED INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: IT ISN’T ALWAYS NECESSARY T0 BE PROPER 1. I am the product of a long line of English teachers, including my mother, my wife, and my youngest son. 2.

    Paul calls us to examine ourselves. In this exam we don’t compare ourselves to others, we actively seek to bring about real changes in our lives and we place our eternal destiny into the hands of Jesus.

    Diamonds In The Rough

    Contributed by John Williams Iii on Jun 3, 2021
     | 3,524 views

    We will explore how we are "diamonds in the rough". The biggest takeaway from today's message is that when we fully rely on God, He can turn our struggles from hurdles and obstacles into stepping stones.

    DIAMONDS IN THE ROUGH 1 Timothy 4:10-12  For to this end we toil and struggle, because we have our hope set on the living God, who is the Savior of all people, especially of those who believe.  (11)  These are the things you must insist on and teach.  (12)  Let no one ...read more

    Give Your Life Away Series

    Contributed by Isaac Butterworth on Apr 5, 2022
     | 2,044 views

    There are at least four core commitments for Christian living: (1) abide in the Word, (2) pray your heart out, (3) be killing sin, and (4) give your life away.

    Our lives tell a story—a story about who we are and what we value, where we’ve come from and where we’re going, what we want and what we’ll do to get it. And what most of us do is, we make “the story” of our lives about us. But God makes “the story” of our lives about Christ. Someone has said, ...read more

     | 1,629 views

    Easter is unsettling. That’s our thesis for this series. No, wait, that’s a given. That’s a foundational statement. The thesis is because Easter is unsettling for the world, we need to be witnesses to the Easter event.

    We Are Witnesses SECOND SUNDAY OF EASTER, YEAR C Acts 5:27-32 5:27 When they had brought them, they had them stand before the council.

    As young pregnant Mary faces the difficulties having to wear ridicule and moral judgement Mary humbly sings a powerful song where she glorifies God and rejoices in her Saviour.

    Message Luke 1:39-56 Mary’s Song It isn’t always easy to sing is it. I’m not talking about those of us who are musically-challenged – we don’t find it easy to sing. Even when we try really hard.
