Cry Out To Jesus Series

Contributed by Adam Weber on Mar 17, 2017

There will be times that we take our eyes off of Jesus, and we’ll get distracted by fear. But what matters isn’t whether we or not we take our eyes off Jesus, but what happens when we do. Do we stay there and just drown in the waves?

Contributed by Jim Mccutchen on Dec 29, 2015

God's Eye View

Contributed by Maurice Mccarthy on Apr 4, 2016

Tough love or tender love. The disciples toiling in rowing, and Jesus unusual response. (He would have passed them by.) When we get close to God we will have sympathy for others, we can also gain insight into the best way to help them.

Eyes Of Faith, Not Sight Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Mar 26, 2017

Elisha and his servant were surrounded by the Syrian army. The servant was fearful, seeing only the enemy. Elisha was confident, seeing the host of God about them. We tend to see only the adversity, but fail to see God. He is able to meet our needs.

Each time Syria’s king planned an attack, the Lord gave Elisha insight to their plans and he was able to warn Israel.

CALM IN WILD WEATHER – PEACE IN LIFE’S STORMS (Message December 2023) Who controls Nature?

The Woman With Weak Eyes Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Jun 2, 2023

Because of her "ugliness" (weak eyes) Leah was unnoticed, unwanted & unloved… and unmarried. She was literally a rejected woman. How did God help her overcome her rejection?

A lady was walking down the street on her way to work & saw a parrot in a pet store. She went in to admire the bird, and suddenly the parrot spoke to her, “Hey lady. You’re ugly.” Well, the woman was deeply offended, and she stormed out of the store. But on her way home, she thought she’d ...read more
