    Paul discloses a progression in the Christian pilgrimage to the Ephesian believers in that they had Heard the Truth then Believed in Jesus and went on to be Sealed by the Spirit.

    HEARD, BELIEVED, SEALED Today we celebrate the Day of Pentecost. What a wonderful day it was for the first disciples of the risen, ascended and glorified Jesus. It was the inauguration of the Church of Christ. But what does the coming of the Holy Spirit mean to us nearly 2,000 years on from that ...read more

    The alarm that went off on September 11 is opening our eyes to the problem of individualism. The only thing that will keep us from collectively rolling over in our bed of apathy is a strong call to the cross of Christ and to genuine Christian community.

    The New Awakening Pastor Jim Luthy It has been two and a half weeks since we were awakened by the news of terrorists striking on our own soil. Since that time, we have heard that the attacks awakened a "sleeping giant." But that leads me to some questions. If we were a "sleeping giant," why ...read more

    God’s plan promises love, joy, peace, and fruitfulness, but too few people choose correctly. Instead, they subtley surrender to the devil’s plan for their lives and suffer as Adam and Eve did in the garden. Nine points.

    The Devil Has a Plan for Your Life (Gen. 3:1-20) Jesus said, "The thief comes only to steal, slaughter, kill and destroy, but I came that you might have life and have it abundantly." (John 10:10) The devil sought to distract Eve and Adam from the goodness of God. They enjoyed 99% of the desires ...read more

    Don’t let failure robs us of faith in God. Develop your faith in God through a lifestyle of prayer and communion with God.

    Failure has a great impact in our lives. Once beaten, twice shy. • When we failed, we are hit by discouragement, fear and even doubts, that we can ever succeed. • That makes the second or third attempt more difficult. Put ourselves in the shoes of the father for a moment. • He was a worried ...read more

    Part of our prayer time needs to be spent in quiet reflection.

    BE QUIET! INTRODUCTION: If you’re anything like me, you often spend your prayer time offering God your ‘wish list’. Too often our prayer time is spent treating God like a spiritual Santa Claus.
