    The inspiring theme "African American Labor," a reflection not only on historical events but also on the resilience and ingenuity of our people. Just like Joseph, our journey has spanned from bondage to blessing, shaped by faith, struggle, and an indomitable spirit.

    "Joseph said to his brothers, 'I am Joseph! Is my father still living?' But his brothers were not able to answer him, because they were terrified at his presence. Then Joseph said to his brothers, 'Come close to me. When they had done so, he said, "I am your brother Joseph, ...read more

    Paul centres his message on the historic Jesus, arguing from Scripture that he’s the Messiah. He persuades people by careful argument, opening the Scriptures to allow people to discover the truth for themselves. And he works as a leader of a team, includi

    It’s interesting that we think of Paul as someone who stands out on his own. He’s the great apostle to the Gentiles, a man who stands head and shoulders above the rest. Yet in reality he was a man who loved to work as part of a team. He started out with Barnabas, then joined up with Silas, then he ...read more

    Liberalism hits the wall when it dismisses Adam and Eve as historical fact. This message here examines why our faith would be null and void if Adam did not exist. We look at arguments from the Lord and Paul. The matter is conclusive.

    LIBERAL THEOLOGY IN THE CHURCHES – ADDRESS NUMBER 3 Liberal theology is a mixture of intellectualism, unbelief, and demonic attack. {{1Timothy 4:1-2 “the spirit explicitly says that in later times some will fall away from the faith, paying attention to deceitful spirits and doctrines of demons, ...read more
