    A look at why James tells us to be joyful when trials and temptations come. We become stronger and more like Jesus in the process.

    The path of life isn’t an easy path to walk. It’s filled with all kinds of trials; like sickness and disease, accidents, disappointments, sufferings and death and also all the trials we go through concerning sin and being seduced. What we need is a guaranteed way to conquer all the trials of ...read more

    Jesus seeks us where we are, calls us by name, and transforms our lives with grace that leads to joyful repentance and welcome.

    I wonder how many of us walked in today feeling small. Small under the weight of worries, small beside someone else’s success, small in the shadow of our own failures. We learn early how to tuck ourselves away—behind busyness, behind bravado, behind careful smiles. We wear “I’m fine” like it’s ...read more

    If I asked you today, What excites you most about heaven?, how would you answer? Streets of gold? No more pain? Reunion with loved ones? These are glorious promises, yes—but they are not the greatest joy of heaven.

    "Joy Stealers"

     | 14,517 views

    Although Paul was in prison, he remained "joyful." Paul warns us of five different "joy stealers" and offers ways in which to avoid them.

    “JOY STEALERS” Phil. 4:4 “Rejoice in the Lord always, and again I say, rejoice.” It is as much a command to "rejoice always," as it is to "not steal." An unhappy Christian is very unchristlike. Remember that the "Joy of the Lord is our strength." Today we will discuss five things that will ...read more

    Sadly we see today the calamities and devastation that fall on nations who have turned from the Living God of Israel. Pray we stay faithful or else we too will suffer those consequences should our nation collectively turn from God.

    Saints; If we want to be effective for the cause of Christ we need a song in our hearts. If we want to assure people that our God provides eternal peace and hope we will need a smile on our face.
