    Jesus challenged the disciples to solve an impossible situation because He wanted to test them, to see if they would turn to Him and to God for help. We can trust God to do immeasurably beyond what we ask or imagine.

    Matt 14:13-21 - The Miracle With A Purpose Jesus did many miracles in the course of His ministry but the feeding of the 5000 is the only one recorded in all the 4 Gospels (Matt 14, Mark 6, Luke 9 and John 6). • All four writers find it significant enough to record it down. It was likely so ...read more

    Jesus-Greater Than The Angels

    Contributed by Ashley Benjamin on Feb 11, 2021
     | 1,922 views

    This sermon is a study from the Book of Hebrews on the supremacy of Christ Jesus. Who was Jesus? Was he an angel? The jewish community had lots of issues in understanding who the Son of God was. This sermon from Hebrews 1 and 2 shows that Jesus is greater than the angels.

    He is Greater! The book of Hebrews is an interesting book of the Bible. It doesn’t have a salutation, so no one knows for sure who the author is. Rather than a letter, it’s more like a homily or sermon. Many attribute the author to be Apollos given the Greek used in this book and his reference to ...read more

    God saves you FROM sin. He saves you FOR a purpose. He saves you BY His grace.

    There is a purpose in everything we do. • We do not wake up every morning and then go through the motions of living. We make plans and seek to achieve something. It is odd to do anything without purpose. • If we know that, then we can expect God to have a purpose when He sent Jesus ...read more

    Attaining the church's purpose is about "keeping the main thing the main thing." People must not only "know" the core values, but they must also "hear" them continually restated so they can envision what they're working towards.

    Proverbs states, “Where there is no vision, the people perish” (Proverbs 29:18 KJV). Bill Hybels, in his book Courageous Leadership, tells us, “When a leader is casting a vision publicly the goal is to help people know, understand, and remember the ‘main thing’.”(1) Purpose is all about keeping ...read more
