     | 104 views

    Even when separated or hindered, God’s presence unites and sustains us, making our love and faith in Christ endure until His return.

    If you’ve ever waved goodbye at an airport gate or watched a taillight fade down a long highway, you know the quiet ache of separation. We stand on porches and in parking lots, with a smile on the lips and a lump in the throat, and we whisper, “Until later.” Our hearts carry faces and names. Our ...read more

    Because Christ is enthroned above all, believers can live with confidence, purpose, and authority, trusting their secure position and God’s ongoing work in their lives.

    Friends, can we take a breath together and remember who our God is? He is the Lifter of our heads, the Steady Hand in our storms, the Shepherd who knows every scar and every sigh. Some of us walked in with tired feet and tender hearts, and the week has felt louder than our faith. But the Lord is ...read more

    The sermon encourages believers to find hope, comfort, and motivation for faithful living in the promised return of Jesus and the assurance of eternal reunion.

    Some promises hush a room. “I’m on my way,” is one of them. The Lord Jesus has said it. And the homesick hearts of God’s people have been listening ever since. We ache for that trumpet, we long for that shout, we yearn for that reunion where grief will be gone and goodbyes will be history. Does ...read more

    One Minute To Midnight Series

    Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Oct 3, 2022
     | 3,400 views

    We look in the O.T. where God delivered right at the last moment. The trial required faith and patience. One minute to midnight - right at the last moment. The testing of our faith brings glory to God when the child of His love proves the faith that is genuine.

    ONE MINUTE TO MIDNIGHT This message will look at intervention in the nick of time. I don’t know if the expression “the nick of time” is known around the world, but it means “just in time”, “at the last moment”. “One minute to midnight,” is a similar expression, and it is surprising how God ...read more

    In this sermon I address the idea of complaining and groaning in a decaying world. How do we approach and deal with pain?

    July 14, 2005 Romans 8:18-25 I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us.

    If we are going to be disciples of Jesus then we must adopt His attitude toward sinners, and follow His example in reaching out to the lost.
