    you will learn that Jesus did not leave you alone or unprotected when He left to be with the Father. But He has supplied everything we need to stand after every battle and give us the victory.

Likewise in God’s kingdom God has equipped us with all that we need to destroy the attacks of the enemy and come out victorious at the ...read more

    We so often live with tunnel vision. But if we turn aside and look at what God is doing, we will find an experience that will not end, a mission that will direct our lives, and a presence that will never leave us.

    I confess to a malady known as “tunnel vision”. Tunnel vision is being able to see only what is straight ahead, as if I were going through a tunnel, and there is nothing to see on the sides, only the light at the end of the tunnel. Tunnel vision is not so much a condition of the eyes as it is of ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 19,753 views

    This sermon continues the series on using all our senses to experience and live in relationship with God. The focus here is for us to taste that God is good, and for us to leave a good taste in the lives of not-yet-believers.

    Taste is a very powerful sense. The power of taste is something that I am very familiar with because we grew up in a Dutch-background household which meant we had salted liquorice in our house. For those of you who are familiar with liquorice … well you know you are experiencing something like ...read more
