    Although Christians "walk by faith and not by sight," doesn't mean that faith is blind. Our faith in God is based upon irrefutable evidences substantiated by science.

    GOD’S NOT DEAD: IS FAITH BLIND? A. What sets a believer apart from a non-believer is our FAITH. 1. Hebrews 11:6- “Without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to Him must believe that He exists and that He rewards those who earnestly seek ...read more

    Tourists before the time of Christ had their “A-List” of attractions to see, which they called the “Seven Wonders of the World.” After those, we'll look at the 7 Wonders of the Spiritual World, which will take our breath away for all eternity!

    Be Strong In The Lord & In His Mighty Power Series

     | 18,949 views

    Never give up in the fight against sin and evil. But always remember the power of God and the armour with which he’s equipped us. And pray on every occasion that you’ll be able to stand firm.

    Do you remember when we looked at Paul’s prayer in Eph 3 that I commented how difficult it is to achieve the sort of unity that God wants from his church? In fact I pointed out that that’s why Paul prays the way he does: because only by God’s power can this miracle come about. Paul knows that apart ...read more

    A Man Born Blind Series

    Contributed by Chris Appleby on Jan 23, 2017
     | 19,651 views

    Is seeing believing? Are you looking to see God at work in the world? Are you pointing out those works of God to others so they too can see? Jesus said : “We must work the works of him who sent me while it is day; night is coming when no one can work.”

    Blindness is a terrible thing. Our sight is central to so much that we enjoy in the world. Whether it’s the beauty of nature, or the smile on a other person’s face when they see you coming; whether it’s the control it gives you over the world around you, or the freedom that it ...read more

    We’re called not as servants, but as friends of Christ to bear much fruit to the glory of God. To do that we’ll need to be firmly grafted into the life of Christ and the life of his Church; we’ll need to be committed to obeying him in everything we do.

    Today is the first anniversary of the opening of St Thomas’. A lot’s happened in the last year hasn’t it? We’ve had a number of people join us. We’ve seen lots of new programs starting up, taking advantage of these great facilities. It makes you feel good to be part of ...read more

    Contributed by Jeff Hagan on Feb 10, 2017
     | 9,429 views

    There is nothing wrong with wanting to be happy in and of itself. However, biblically there is a difference between "happiness" and "joy." Here is a list of things to rid your life of as you seek to find happiness which will hopefully lead to true joy.

    Introduction: Everyone, believer or non-believer, wants to achieve happiness. There is nothing wrong with wanting to be happy as long as it is not our end all goal. Other than not having a relationship with Christ, the biggest thing that holds us back from accomplishing our dreams is, ...read more
