    Faith starts small and grows when we nurture our growth with God's unfailing Grace and Love

    From Small Beginnings… June 18, 2006 Mark 4:26-34 Sometimes things are not as they appear to be. This parable has long been used to describe the amount of faith one would need to be used by God.

     | 1,619 views

    Few acknowledge how important SPIRITUAL GROWTH can be to the family and the church. We tend to accept the spirit of sameness and never focus on growing spiritually.

    STUPIDITY: TO GROW OR NOT TO GROW, THAT IS THE QUESTION! By Wade Martin Hughes, Sr. Kyfingers@aol.com Let us start by asking questions: WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN? WHERE ARE YOU NOW?

    This sermon explores cultivating a steadfast, fruitful faith through fostering fellowship, obedience to Jesus, and spiritual growth, as exemplified in Acts 11:22-24.

    Good morning, beloved family. Today, I want to ask a simple question for us to consider: How do we cultivate a faith that is not only steadfast but also fruitful?

    Heart Trouble

    based on 3 ratings
     | 13,102 views

    In his parable of the sower and the seed, Jesus shows us various kinds of spiritual heart trouble. From the story, we learn to share our faith indiscriminately, trust God to bring the growth, and cooperate with God in the growth he wants to bring in us.

    Matthew 13:3-9, 18-23 Heart Trouble Have you ever wondered why some seem to embrace God’s good news of salvation and others don’t? Have you ever wondered why God sends people to hell? Or maybe they send themselves there, as they reject the God who desires that all people be saved. Jesus used a ...read more

    Wanted: Dead And Alive Series

     | 18,571 views

    A problem for a lot of people who name the name of Jesus as Christians is there hasn’t been a lot of growth in their Christian life. A lot of Christians don’t grow much beyond that point of conversion. There is no growth in grace, as the Bible calls it.

    INTRODUCTION I’m too young to remember this, but I am told there used to be a television show in black and white entitled, “Wanted, Dead or Alive,” starring Steve McQueen. My wife says she remembers that show, but I don’t. It refers back to an old tradition among bounty ...read more

     | 1,074 views

    God created us in His image and commanded us to grow and multiply. Our spiritual growth and fruitfulness are conditions to remain in Christ. We can only grow and be fruitful by staying connected to Him. We are expected to show growth and fruitfulness in every area of our lives to glorify Him.

    The purpose of God for us as Christians is to be ambassadors of heaven on Earth, ensuring the realization of the Kingdom of God. God wants us to be fruitful and multiply in all areas of our lives: spiritually, intellectually, physically, maritally, professionally, financially, ministerially, and ...read more
