    Have your dreams died? Do you think the future holds no hope for you. Think again! God can raise up things that have died.......if He can get us to believe Him.

    Death is definitely not a subject that is high on our list of topics for discussion. It seems so contradictory to say, but the truth of the matter is, that, death is a part of life. Death is an unavoidable, inevitable experience. It is the last experience we encounter in the physical, natural ...read more

    Three great awakenings: 1. Awakening from spiritual death. 2. Awakening from spiritual dullness. 3. Awakening from spiritual deafness.

    For a long time I knew that the Christian life was a matter of having a relationship with God, but I also often thought of it as a list of rules to be kept.

    Why do Christians still wear ’grave clothes’ when they ahve been raised from the dead?

    LAZARUS – JOHN 11 Even the most biblically illiterate person has heard the story of the raising of Lazarus. It is a very familiar story to many of us. Yet the truth is it is a story that we rarely read, fail to understand and more importantly I believe wonder how it actually applies to our daily ...read more

    Remembrance Sunday, 1989: For us to see the glory of God in the face of death means that we have to move some obstacles and we have to live into the bitterness of what might have been; but then the great "Come Forth" can be heard.

    At Easter it was not hard to think and to sing of the glory of God, was it? Not hard at all to imagine that God’s in His heaven, all’s right with the world. Triumphant music played, pronouncements came forth about victory and power and honor to our God. It was not hard at Easter to dwell on the ...read more

    There is a new theology that says that one of two things is true: Either God is not all-powerful or God is not all-loving Some choose to serve a God who is all-loving, but not all powerful.
