    Join Jesus and the two disciples on the road to Emmaus! Let Jesus deal with your disappointments, clear up your confusion, and set your heart on fire.

    Recall with me some of the post-resurrection appearances made by Jesus. Mark’s gospel tells us that early on Easter Sunday Jesus made his first appearance to Mary Magdalene. In his gospel John gives us the details of that meeting. Mary was bawling her eyes out over what she thought was the ...read more

    1 Kings 11 is one of the saddest chapters in Solomon’s story. The man who was once filled with divine wisdom, honoured by nations, and favoured by God fell because of a divided heart.

    Rebellion - The Faith Killer Series

    based on 5 ratings
     | 6,097 views

    Many of us are exposed to the gospel, but as the Israelites had a choice to go into the Promised Land, we have a choice whether to believe God when He says salvation is through Jesus Christ. Do you have a hard or soft heart to the Lord?

    I grew up in the 60’s when rebellion against authority was turned into an art form. Rebellion says: I don’t like someone taking authority over me. I don’t want you telling me what’s wrong with me, and I certainly don’t want you telling me what to do because what I think is the most important thing ...read more

    The Holy Spirit knows well what is needed in every time and place.

    Thursday of 11th Week in Course There’s a contrast between our two prophets–Jesus and Elijah–in today’s Scriptures. Elijah’s missionary method was pretty direct. When Israel defected from worshiping the true God, he called down a three-year drought. When he won ...read more

    The moment we are born again God establishes a Trust Fund for us. But so many of us are not accessing it.. Why?

    How many of you know that God has given us an inheritance? Every promise that God has identified in His Word belongs to us — and it belongs to us now. Physical and emotional healing. It’s ours now. Our needs being met financially. It’s ours now. Every prayer answer. It’s ours now. But, for ...read more
