    Everyday we have a choice as Christians to live as God changed us (seated in the heavenly realms with Christ) or live like the way we used to as enemies of God.

    This morning, we are to worship God with songs, prayer, His Word, our offerings, and with our fellowship. For Christians, to be in church on a Sunday morning is the thing to do; But, what about later today or tomorrow? How will we really live? We live our lives without really asking that question, ...read more

    How are we to live in the light of the end times? We're to be disciplined, clear-minded so we can pray. We’re to love one another at full strength. We’re to serve one another with whatever gift God gives us.

You see it in cartoons, usually on a sign-board held by a man with a long beard wearing a white robe and sandals. And of course there are many variations of the mad ...read more

    Defining Moment In Our Lives

    based on 4 ratings
     | 18,039 views

    Life is built upon a series of defining moments, including moment of crisis, failure, sadness, success and joy. Although, it is easy to let emotions dictate our response during a defining moment, how we respond will shape our faith, our personality and determine the direction of our life.
