    How do you go from deep despair to the heights of joy? Psalm 22 holds the key.

    “ … when they came to a place called Golgotha (which means Place of a Skull), they offered [Jesus] wine to drink, mixed with gall; but when He tasted it, He would not drink it.

    Contributed by Michael Otterstatter on Jul 21, 2025
     | 185 views

    Abraham and Sarah, and Martha and Mary received the one thing they needed—God’s presence in their lives through his Word. Let’s ask God the Holy Spirit to do the same thing for us today and every day.

    God came to visit them. In two of our Scripture readings for this Sunday two pairs of believers hosted God in their homes (well, to be exact one was a tent). Abraham and Sarah welcomed the LORD God who took on a human body to be able to visit them on a personal level. They heard God’s promises ...read more

    There are few things in life that can hurt us so deeply and scar us so permanently as to have our faith shattered by someone we love. But by Gods grace faith can and is restored.

    Restoring your faith John Chapter 21 When was the last time that you had your faith entirely shattered? Was it in the Detroit Red Wings or the Toronto Maple Leafs? That’s one kind of faith – the faith of a fan. What about not getting that promotion or job that someone had promised you? That’s ...read more

    To survive and thrive in a world hell-bent for destruction, face it with faith. Face it with a faith that works and waits. Trust God enough to obey Him and keep on obeying Him until your faith is rewarded with sight.

     | 5,138 views

    Everybody desperately needs to believe in Jesus Christ: 1. Because He is the only hope for justification (vs. 19-24). 2. Because He is the only hope for redemption (vs. 24). 3. Because He is the only hope for propitiation (vs. 24-26). 4. Because He is the only hope for righteousness (vs. 20-31).

    The object of faith will determine whether we experience God. Do we put our faith in the bank account or in the creator of wealth?

    According to our passage for tonight, John says that this healing of the nobleman's son was the second sign of Jesus. It was further testimony to the fact that Jesus was the Son of God. It is quite obvious that Jesus is the star of the story. But, I want you to look with me tonight... not at the ...read more

    based on 4 ratings
     | 2,850 views

    Part of our witness to whom Jesus is in our lives comes from the way in which we share that which our Lord has given to us.

    First Kings offers us great insight into the way in which treaties worked in the Ancient Near East. Solomon and Hiram praise each other. They express their desire for one another’s goods and the initiate a way of producing and delivering the goods to their trade partner. At times verses like these ...read more
