    Do you face the future with your heart filled with fear, or do you face the future with your heart filled with faith in the goodness of God?

    So oftentimes, emotions function like the lights on our dashboard. When the engine light comes on, something needs to be paid attention to.

Recently Time magazine even ran an article about how to handle your emotions during tough economic times. I’m ...read more

    There are different kinds of vessels in the house of God. So you will do well to examine what kind of vessel you are. Let me clear one thing before we go deeper into this message: God will not accept any excuse from anyone for not being a useful vessel.

    Our message this week, is what I call “The thorns of life.” Genesis 3:17-19 says, “And unto Adam He said, Because thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, of which I commanded thee saying, thou shalt not eat of it: cursed is the ground for thy ...read more
