    Christians get into endless debates about free will, predestination, losing your salvation vs once-saved-always-saved, getting lost in the complexity of it all.

    Quite often, discussions about theological issues boil down to one side pulling out their list of Scriptures proving their doctrine and the other side pulling out their list of Scriptures to prove their contrary doctrine, and most often, it is whoever has the most extensive list that wins. ...read more

    Jesus said that the Spirit is like wind - it is invisible and unpredictable. Wind has the power to transform, energize, and destroy, and so does the Spirit. The Spirit provides the power we need to be who we are called to be and do what we are called to do.

    Many of us might feel that the Holy Spirit is the least understood person of the Trinity. We know about God the Father and God the Son, but God the Holy Spirit can seem mysterious. Yet, the Holy Spirit is vital to our daily walk with God. He is our Advocate, Comforter, and Guide.

    The Holy Spirit: God’s Presence in Us Every Day Theme: The Holy Spirit is God Himself, living in and empowering believers to experience and reflect His presence daily. Key Verse: John 14:16-17 – “And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Advocate, who will never leave you. He is the ...read more

    Be careful of those who scorn water.

    The story of the little fish swimming towards its mother, and in a panic says, “Mama, Mama, what’s water? I gotta find water or I’ll die!” "Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God,” John 3:5 says. The water refers to water ...read more

    Session 1: This introduction to "spiritual gifts" discusses the promise of the Holy Spirit, how and when we receive the Spirit, the meaning of being filled with the Spirit, and the reason why spiritual gifts are given to believers.

    Tonight, we will begin our study on spiritual gifts.

    If you want to see the Kingdom of God, you must be born again, the Son of Man must be lifted up, and you must believe.

    Through his humor, Bill Waterson has a way to make you think about life. He’s the author of the Calvin and Hobbes comic strips; and some time ago, he drew Calvin (a little boy) hurtling down a snowy slope on a sled with his friend Hobbes (a tiger).

    Have you ever wondered why Christmas is all about giving? You probably have an idea. But I want to make sure today that you understand exactly what it means for you.

    Have you ever wondered why Christmas is all about giving? Well, I imagine most of us have a feel for this. It’s because Jesus was all about loving and giving.

    John 3 introduces us to Nicodemus, a religious man who seemed sincere in wanting to know more about Jesus. He received the greatest lesson in that a real relationship with God is made possible only by the finished work of Christ on the cross and His resurrection.

    The third chapter of John's Gospel gives us a portrait of the Lord Jesus as the Divine Teacher. He has already been presented as the Light, The Word of God, the Lamb of God, and the Messiah. Now He gives His attention to teach us how to flee the darkness of this world and come to the Light, ...read more
