    The importance of every member of the body of Christ experiencing the presence of God and coming to a better understanding of God’s calling on their lives.

    Take up your beam Purpose of teaching- not just for information exchange but for life transformation- that is not a preference. When Saul was knocked down by the HS on the Road to Damascus, he knew- not a casual transformation. We live in an age that has trivialized faith. We have made it little ...read more

    The most important things in life can only be acheived by those who conscioulsy count the cost and pay the price.

    Today while praying, I took time to go over all I wanted to do and be for God. At the end I asked myself a question, then I turned around and asked God that question. “God, What will it cost me to fulfill my destiny?” We everyday are faced with the reality of the cost of life. A trip ...read more

    When you look at the modern church, you see it is busy as a whole, but are they accomplishing what God has given to them? Is the church occupying, or is it just setting on its laurels of past glories and waiting for the Lord to return? ...

    Luke 19:13 And he called his ten servants, and delivered them ten pounds, and said unto them, Occupy till I come. Other translations say; Do business - till I come. In other words engage in trade with what you have been given. Take what you have and put it to work. Stay busy with what I have ...read more

     | 5,302 views

    Have you ever set out after something and you got close but you didn’t quite get it? Just coming close can be pretty debilitating and frustrating. But nothing would be worse than getting close to the kingdom of God but not getting there.

    CLOSE BUT NO CIGAR Mark 12:28-34 INTRODUCTION: Have you ever set out after something and you got close but you didn’t quite get it? Coming close can be pretty debilitating and frustrating.

     | 14,298 views

    The declaration and mission of Nehemiah is more than just rebuilding a wall, it's a calling for men and women to return to living fully for the God in heaven. Doesn't the church today have the exact same mission? Why are we not living it?

    Nehemiah’s Mission Nehemiah 2:1-20 Introduction - Nehemiah is a great study of leadership, but also of obedience to God - Last time we saw our man Nehemiah receiving very disturbing news -- This news was about Jerusalem and its apparent fall into ruin; people disgraced -- His heart ...read more

    As disciples we are called to love one another, that is a command that is easier to say than actually do, for us to live in a way that the love of God is fully demonstrated requires real effort in our daily lives.

    Disciples who Love Straight to the question: If you could only use one word to describe God what word would you choose? Would it be Almighty? Omnipotent? Creator? It’s Valentines Day and the word I am looking for is Love! The bible tells us simply and clearly that “God is ...read more

    Ministry should be the heart and soul of every Christian. When we minister, we must always find ways to keep on improving because at the end, God will is our judge. In this message we will learn how to do ministry the right way.

    Let me start with a quote from Rick Warren. He said, "Faithful servants never retire. You can retire from your career, but you will never retire from serving God." That is true. If you are a faithful servant of the Lord, there is no retirement here on earth because our retirement is in heaven ...read more

    This message looks at the challenge of following Jesus. It considers the nature of discipleship and how it is inseparable from being a Christian.

    Counting the Cost - Following Jesus Luke 14: 25-35 Introduction We live in an era where Christianity has been simplified to a form of ‘easy believism’.
