     | 7,710 views

    Often we want to see church growth, but have we looked to see what we need to do to sustain growth?

    I have asked myself the question over the past two years, what is it that has kept the churches from having sustained growth, what has kept them from keeping pastors for any length of time, what is it that has such a vise over Northeastern Washington preventing the excitement and revival other ...read more

    Is it important to keep the Sabbath day holy? Why did God give us this command, and how is it applicable for us today? God’s word has answers for all of these questions, and those who follow will be duly blessed.

    Each Christian will face battles throughout the life they are called to live. There will not be one battle, but each of us will face multiple battles, and the situations we face may appear overwhelming as we face our own giants. But God will send a deliverer just when we need that deliverer most.

    “There was war again between the Philistines and Israel, and David went down together with his servants, and they fought against the Philistines. And David grew weary. And Ishbi-benob, one of the descendants of the giants, whose spear weighed three hundred shekels of bronze, and who was armed ...read more

It seems that every hour of every day is filled to the limit with things that need ...read more
