A Good Wife And A Mean-Spirited Husband

Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Apr 20, 2014

A GOOD WIFE AND A MEAN-SPIRITED HUSBAND. This is a true story concerning a wise woman, a foolish chieftain, and a band of outlaws. The leader of the outlaws was an honourable man who, like Robin Hood in England, had unjustly fallen into disfavour with the ruler of the land. Whereas Robin Hood ...read more

I want to begin our message with one woman’s testimony of her visit to a chilling archaeological site in Peru.

Diminshing Returns: When The Secondary Becomes Primary Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on May 24, 2021

Because of their love for God, they choose to leave the comforts they had preferred for the rigors of rebuilding their home land. They were zealous for the house of God and they had left many of their friends, family members, and comfortable lives behind.

In pursuit of God’s best you may have wrestled with and overcome some internal spiritual battles, and individually ...read more

Prayer And Revival

Contributed by Brad Beaman on Oct 29, 2023

This verse is often quoted in connection with various prayer campaigns, like National Day of Prayer and other times when we are called to seasons of prayer. We are familiar with this verse, but now let’s look at the background of this verse.

We know that prayer is the Christians vital breath of life. How is your prayer life? How long has it been since you really dwelt in the presence of God? It can be convicting to come to the realization we have drifted, and our prayer life is not what it once was. What can we do about it? The answer ...read more

Unanswered Prayer (Part 2) Series

Contributed by Benjamin Utomo on Mar 1, 2023

God invites us to ask Him, and we will receive (Mat 7:7). But why does He sometimes not answer our prayers? This sermon series explains several possibilities for why God does not grant our prayers.

We have learned that God invites us to ask Him what we need (Matthew 7:7) because, number one, God wants us to be close to Him; number two, God wants us to always depend on Him; and number three, God wants to show His love to us. When we ask something from Him, we must be ready to get His ...read more

Getting To Know God - Part 3 - The God Who Provides Series

Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Oct 1, 2019

We see God's provision in our lives. As a rule, we Americans do not understand our wealth if we have never been to an underdeveloped country. Even those at the poverty level would be rich in many lands. Has God given us these riches so we can provide for them?
