    WE all need a limp, just as Jacob wrestled and God touched him, let’s be like him

    WRESTLING WITH GOD I need a limp - a life changing limp. I have told you we need it but I have not shown you how.

    How could you possibly witness to someone who’s hurt you? Someone who has gone out of their way to make you miserable? Paul and Silas did it. Can you do it too?

    OPEN: In the 1870s, in the Old West, a town called Truckee, California decided to build a jail. This wasn’t just any old jail - this was wonder to behold. The walls were 32 inches thick at the lower level and there were no windows unless one counted the small vents for each cell. The ceilings were ...read more

    We open up our Bibles once a year at this time to read the Gospel accounts of Jesus coming from the portals of heaven to lie in a bed of straw on this earth. Yet, to be honest isn’t it so much more than that? Isn’t there something more majestic about the

    Everyone loves to receive gifts at Christmas time. And I am sure that as Christmas approaches we are wondering what lies behind those wrapped presents.

    In our lesson today we learn that just as athletes exercise rigorous self-control in order to win a perishable prize, so we as Christians must exercise rigorous self-control in order to win an imperishable prize.

    Scripture We continue our study in The First Letter of Paul to the Corinthians in a series I am calling Challenges Christians Face. One of the challenges that Christians face is the issue of Christian liberty. Let’s learn about this in a message I am calling, “Paul’s Pattern in ...read more

    It's one game board, but two games. Checkers and Chess are not only played differently, but they illustrate for me the difference between how the world deals with conflict and how God would have us do so. Do you know the difference?

    Nothing should hold us back when we worship the Lord. Our worship must be pure and authentic. That is why God's desire for us is to be released from the bondage of Satan.

    Today, we will be going to Exodus chapter 9. We will study the statements of God in answer to Pharaoh's stubbornness. What does God desire that is of utmost importance? What does God caution us against? What are the consequences of disobedience? May the Lord give us understand on these ...read more

     | 4,835 views

    You know what "The Blame Game" is don’t you? Because we’ve all played it! Admittedly some of us play it a lot more than others, but it’s really all just a game of personal deflection. It involves blaming everything and everyone else (including God) for what is transpiring in your own life

    “THE BLAME GAME” Tonight we are going to take a brief interlude away from our ongoing study on... “...Those things which are most surely believed among us” (Luke 1:1) And instead, we’re going to talk about a little thing – I like to call “The Blame Game”.
