    Love as a verb is hard to do but when love becomes an action devoid of emotions we can better understand the gift of Jesus at Christmas.

    God’s Grace is something that is kinda simple but kinda hard to really understand. What does it mean to embrace God’s grace?

    At the beginning of our current series on the book of Romans, I mentioned that one of the reasons that Paul wrote the book in the first place was to speak to some misunderstandings that had been circulating in the early church about his teachings in general. Nowhere was Paul more misunderstood ...read more

The plural of oxymoron is oxymora, so here are a few of my favorite oxymora: (1) jumbo shrimp; (2) pretty ugly; (3) working vacation (4) tight slacks; (5) Microsoft works; (6) humble Texan; and the one we’re ...read more

    When God Turns The Tables Around

     | 42,611 views

    God can step in at anytime to change times, seasons and situations; He can arise and turn the tables around to favour His children.

    Never look down on anyone. The person you look down on today may be the person you have to run to for help tomorrow. The account of Jephthah in Judges 11:1-11 beautifully illustrates this point. Jephthah was born with a stigma. His mother was a prostitute. Even though there was a shroud of ...read more

    INTEGRITY is one of the most important assets we have and we most work hard to protect and preserve it. It takes years to build it yet only seconds to destroy it.

    Here, David is asking God to judge him according to his righteousness and his integrity. Ask yourself this question, if you were standing before God today, and you asked God to judge you according to your righteousness and your integrity, how would you do? (Would God be proud of you, would you ...read more

    This sermon highlights the benefits of having Jesus, the Captain of our Salvation sail with us as we go through different situations and seasons of life.

    Jesus is always looking for a ‘boat’ – a heart, a life, a ministry, a business, a family, a church, a nation to enter into. When Jesus got into Peter’s boat, Peter didn’t shut or shove Jesus out of his boat, he allowed Him in. Allowing Jesus into his boat, gave Peter a life-changing encounter with ...read more
