Winning Isn't Easy... But It's Still Winning! Series

Contributed by Michael Mays on Sep 11, 2021

Words Of Encouragement Series

Contributed by Dave Mcfadden on Sep 17, 2019

Indeed, if we are going to live in a godly fashion, we will find that we are called to be encouragers of others. God comes alongside the discouraged to offer encouragement.

Hatch And Dispatch Series

Contributed by Allan Quak on Feb 19, 2021

In the midst of his suffering Job is able to continue to be obedient. Job recognises that the nakedness of birth and death is a lesson to all to measure their life by trusting the ongoing provisions of God, not by comparing our suffering to others.

In the middle of a life crisis Job spoke these words:- “Naked I came from my mother’s womb, and naked I will depart.” Job 1:21 As we consider these ...read more

Praying With Good King Hezekiah

Contributed by Reuben Bredenhof on Feb 21, 2021

Looking back on the last few months, do you feel like you’ve been praying more, or is it less? Is this a practice that has been strengthened with you, or has it struggled? Has the seeking become less diligent, or the knocking not so confident? A praying Christian is a living Christian!

In Luke 11:9 Jesus says these words to us, “Ask, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you.” Simple commands, yet astonishing. For his words reveal the great privilege that we have when we pray. This is the heavenly power that we access whenever we ...read more

Blessings In Disguise

Contributed by Jim Keegan on Jan 18, 2023

Hand-in-hand with God’s blessing there is always testing to deepen our bonds of intimate love and trust. Those two forces work together for our good.

We see in this familiar passage two of the foundational stories of the Gospel: Christ’s blessing by God, followed very closely by his temptation. These are also the two universal realities of the spiritual life: both blessings and trials. After his baptism, Jesus saw the Spirit descending on ...read more
