Contributed by Stephen Belokur on May 14, 2021

Mother's can be wonderful; a gift from God. Mother's can be terrible; a roadblock on the path to God. And, yet, everyone can still make it to Jesus. He is faithful. Praise His Holy Name!!!

The Stubborn Evangelist Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on May 24, 2021

This short story is one where Jonah is in flight; it’s also one where God is in pursuit. Jonah’s life is really one of a boomerang for he ends up in the place that ran from in the beginning. For four chapters we’ll witness Jonah’s futile flight as well as God’s persistent pursuit.

Note: The entire book of Jonah is read before I preach. Today we launch a new four part series entitled Jonah: The Stubborn Evangelist. And it is coming at just the right time for our church (more on the timing in just a moment). Most only know it as an amusing story about a prophet and a “whale.” ...read more

My God Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Oct 1, 2020

For many people, God is far away and is to be approached only at times of need or danger. However, that is far from the truth. God wants each of us to have a very personal relationship with Him. Here's a study on how we can call God as "My God". Be blessed abundantly.

We read in Psalm 91:1-2, “He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will abide in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say to the LORD, "My refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust."” (ESV) The Psalmist had a personal relationship with God, and therefore could say of Him, ‘My ...read more
