     | 9,134 views

    In a world full of various challenges and troubles, living a joyful life becomes impossible without the help of God. Only Jesus can help us live a life full of joy.

    Joy drives out all forms of bitterness that may have existed in your life in times past. It is a light that drives out the darkness of sorrow. Joy is what keeps you smiling everyday of your life, making all your days devoid of sorrow. Everyone desires to live a life full of joy, but it is evident ...read more

    Lee Strobel presents a message to a Colorado church shortly after the movie theater massacre in Aurora, Colorado.

    It was the worst mass shooting in American history – 70 people shot by a gunman, 12 of them killed, while they were watching the midnight showing of a new movie just 21 miles from where we’re sitting. There are no words to describe the anguish being felt by those who are suffering today; our heart ...read more

    It is more than education we need, we need the illumination of the Spirit. It is more than planning we need, but the leading of the Spirit. It is more than praying we need, but listening to the Holy Spirit.

    Christianity is hopeless without the Holy Spirit. He is God’s agent on earth today. • Without Him, there is a disconnection with God; the line is cut off. We won’t fully understand God’s will. • The Holy Spirit reveals the will of God. He reminds us of the words of Jesus; he guides us into all ...read more

    This Is Eternal Life

     | 9,840 views

    We are tempted to define eternal life in light of a duration - it goes on forever. Jesus defines eternal life differently - He describes it in terms of a relationship with Himself. And that's important for us to consider because it is one thing to know

    This Is Eternal Life - John 17:3 - August 19, 2012 As a young boy I had one of those plastic bow and arrow sets where the arrows have the little red rubber suction cups on the end.

    Unity

    based on 3 ratings
     | 11,719 views

    We can’t convert the world from its emphasis on self to a life in Christ unless we are united in purpose-unless we love one another. When we ignore the will of God in order to have our own way, the result is discord and disunity. Unity begins with us.

    Jehovah Shalom - God Is Peace Series

    Fear is a self-preservation instinct -- it's designed to protect us from something that may cause us real or imagined harm. But Jesus says in Matthew not to fear death, but to fear God. What's the difference?

    Jehovah Shalom - God of Peace Fear is a constant in our world. It’s so immersed in our culture that sometimes it’s actually considered a psychiatric issue, complete with fancy descriptive terms! I thought it may be interesting to read some of these to you tonight. Some seem normal, but ...read more

    Living for God is hard. There are temptations to do wrong, or perhaps what God is asking you to do seems like it is too hard. The Holy Spirit comes to help us.

    Good morning boys and girls! Have you ever tried to look through a window that is smudged and dirty? Well, if you have, you know that it’s hard to see out of it because the dust and dirt block any clear view.
