     | 6,456 views

    We can have the confidence and assurance of answered prayers in our life if we pray in accordance of God's will and direction.

    The Three Cs Of Discipleship

    Contributed by Ray Ellis on Jun 8, 2009
    based on 4 ratings
     | 10,082 views

    Becoming a Christ follower is conditional. We have the choice to say, “Yes” or “No” to becoming a disciple of Jesus. Jesus said, “If anyone will come after me…” Jesus gives the invitation and then leaves the choice up to us.

    The Three “Cs” of Discipleship Luke 9:23-26 During my twelve years of ministry here the mission of the Willow Vale Church has been: “Bringing people to Jesus, loving, equipping and sending them out to make more and better disciples.” Jesus gave us the mission and purpose of the church ...read more

    Have Faith And Pray

    Contributed by Craig Condon on Jun 5, 2015
     | 6,313 views

    Our Christian life is not to be confined to a closet. Our belief must be revealed in our practice. If we walk in Christ, then we must act as Christ would act because Christ is in us-our hopes, our love, our joy and our lives. We are Christ's reflection.

    At first glance, the reading from Hosea 1:2-10 doesn't seem to make sense. Would God really ask a prophet to marry a prostitute? Well, the answer is yes he can, and yes he did. You see, this was part of God's plan, and we all know that God's ways are not our ways, and sometimes God's ways don't ...read more

     | 6,979 views

    When great men stick to their plan that is not the failure of God to act on behalf of His children against the evildoers to right the wrongs to save them as promised through His mercy and His salvation plan.

    DEAFENING BLOW by Dr. Gale A. Ragan-Reid (December 5, 2015) “Fret not thyself because of evildoers, neither be thou envious against the workers of iniquity...The steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD: and he delighteth in his way...I have been young, and now am old; yet ...read more
