Developing "Harvest Eyes"

Contributed by Randy Chestnut on Apr 20, 2005

Living Water Series

Contributed by Ray Searan on Jun 3, 2005

Some of us since we have been Christians have never learned how we can be free from things in life that have us in bondage. However, sometimes we classify and justify our sins to the point that we become unaware of the stronghold that they have on our liv

There are only two points to this message. May God challenge your heart, as he did mine, in preparing this ...read more

Contributed by Jimmy Stewart on Nov 10, 2004

We need to figure out what the Bible declares is true worship, and start presenting THAT to God!

Worship John 4 If we were honest, we would agree that the modern church world is in a bit of dissaray when it comes to the definition of true worship. The fact is, what many Christians, and many churches are presenting to God as worship is really not worship at all. Many times it’s nothing more ...read more

What Does It Mean To "Worship”

Contributed by Max Goins on Dec 7, 2004
