    God is the central character in the Book of Job. We discover what is lacking in our own lives as we witness God revealing His character in this account of His dealing with one suffering saint.

    “Job answered the LORD and said: ‘I know that you can do all things, and that no purpose of yours can be thwarted. “Who is this that hides counsel without knowledge?” Therefore I have uttered what I did not understand, things too wonderful for me, which I did not know. “Hear, and I will ...read more

    Contributed by C. Philip Green on Dec 19, 2025
     | 229 views

    When you know you’re going to have a bad day, affirm God’s justice; affirm God’s authority; and affirm God’s mercy. It will help you get through the day.

    According to a recent survey, the average American knows their day is going to be bad by 8:36 a.m. in the morning. For example, they say, “You know you’re going to have a bad day if you wake up feeling sick (35%), if you suffer from poor sleep (31%), or if you start the day with a headache (29%).” ...read more

    The Question Evil Can’t Answer

    Contributed by David Dunn on Dec 29, 2025
     | 155 views

    Evil remains a mystery, but the cross reveals God’s character. He enters human suffering, bears its weight, and assures us that love—not evil—has the final word.

    There are certain questions that do not arise from curiosity, but from collision. They are not born in classrooms or debates, but in moments when life presses hard against the soul and refuses to explain itself. These questions surface when loss interrupts routine, when suffering enters without ...read more

     | 149 views

    The question we all eventually ask in the dark is: 'When does it end?' In this series finale, we discover that the breakthrough we’ve been waiting for might not be a change in our circumstances, but a change in us.

    Contributed by Rev Emmanuel O. Adejugbe on Jan 23, 2026
     | 144 views

    If God is present and active, why is He so silent? We live in an age of information where we expect a 'why' for every 'what.' But in this message, we discover that God often withholds the explanation to protect the formation.

    The Question We're All Asking We've learned that God is hidden, but not absent. We've learned that silence is refinement, not punishment. We've learned that God knows us intimately, even in the darkness. But now we come to the hardest question of all. If God is really present. If ...read more

    What lessons do we learn from the book of Job?

    I began by playing the “Bricklayers Song” by Ray Stevens. Maybe his name was Job Murphy, cause it seemed that anything that could go wrong did go wrong.
