Are You "Making Excuses Or Making It Happen?" Series

Contributed by Jeffrey Sims on Apr 25, 2018

Story of two people with the same problem, one was not seeking an encounter with Jesus and the other was seeking Jesus out. Both were healed after a close encounter with Christ

Today I want us to look at two different people and two very different encounters with Jesus. As we look at these two people and how they encountered Jesus we should think of how we encounter Jesus.

Where Is Your Bethesda Pool/

Contributed by Marilyn Murphree on May 26, 2018

Can Jesus still heal problems of long standing or is there an expiration date on Healing? Do we listen to people far too much when they tell us that their advise is to "accept your disability" and get on with your life?

The Sign Of The Sabbath Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Mar 12, 2017
