Let No One Frustrate Your Purpose

Contributed by Joe Mwangi Wamuga on Sep 9, 2024

You were created for a purpose. Purpose is the reason for which something is done or created or for which something exists. Myles Munroe said, When purpose is not known, abuse is inevitable. We should live purpose driven lives. God is a planner, and has good plans for us.

The Means Of Grace

Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Dec 23, 2023

God’s power does not depend on tangible things or reside in visible things. It is God in Christ who calls, and when we come to him, it is God in Christ who heals.

Can you imagine how desperate General Naaman must have been? Aram and Israel were enemies, for goodness’ sake. They were raiding across each other's borders, looting and taking slaves and generally making nuisances of themselves, keeping in practice for the next full-scale hostilities to break ...read more

Barging In

Contributed by Michael Koplitz on Dec 10, 2024

A woman of a low class barges into a Pharisee's home to plead for forgiveness from Jesus. He grants her the request. It shows that the common Jews desired the Messiah!

Barging in Luke 7:40-50 Rabbi Rev. Dr. Michael H Koplitz 40 And Jesus answered, and said to him: Simon, I have something to say to thee. He said to him: Say it, Rabbi. Jesus said to him: 41 There were two debtors to a certain creditor; the one owed him five hundred denarii, and the other fifty ...read more

Is It Ok To Doubt? Series

Contributed by Roberta Karchner on Apr 19, 2024

For the doubters and skeptics, this is where you belong, right there with Thomas. Jesus didn't criticize his doubting, he invited him to actually touch him. You don't have to believe to come, this is a place where we can ask our questions. This is a place where we find Jesus to be real.

My theme this Eastertide is the way that Jesus changed who we are AFTER the resurrection – while most of our studies are on the person Jesus BEFORE the crucifixion, what happened after is what changed us permanently. But the truth is, even those of us who call ourselves believers doubt at times. ...read more

The Crucible== Genuine?

Contributed by Wade Martin Hughes, Sr on Jul 27, 2024

Today we seem to expect exemption from suffering and test. There is a false teaching that if we are really close to God we will not be tested. Ask Abraham, Job, David, Joseph and Jesus about seasons of testing?

CRUCIBLE == GENUINE! HOT TRIALS! By Wade Martin Hughes, Sr. Kyfingers@aol.com (YouTube: Wade Hughes) We go through seasons of tests. Sometimes the trials are so hot we almost seem hopeless. HANG ON!

Nineteenth Sunday In Ordinary Time- How To Walk On Water.

Contributed by Paul Andrew on Jul 5, 2023

To walk on water means to perform a task where the challenge greatly exceeds one’s level of skills without becoming anxious and stressed.

How to walk on water. I saw a cartoon that showed a lady walking on some cases of bottled water and the caption read, “Walking on water”! Another person said, “I walk on water every time it rains. Thin water, but water just the same. [And] just so you know, I drive on water too.” To walk on ...read more

No Greater Love! Series

Contributed by Brian Williams on Jul 13, 2023

Jesus’ love wasn’t empty words. His love was manifested as he stood silent before His mockers and accusers, by every cruel lash He took for us, by every step He took on the road to Calvary, by each nail driven into his body. This should have been us.

Every sermon we preach, no matter what time of year it is, points to the Person of Jesus Christ because He is the Cornerstone of our faith. Christ’s incarnation - was when God, the Creator of the earth and of every living creature and of the entire universe was born on the earth as a man. Christ’s ...read more

The Priestly Tribe (1 Chronicles 6)

Contributed by I. Grant Spong on Oct 6, 2025

How did Jesus become our high priest?

Were the Levites scattered throughout Israel? Who is our high priest today? Does God still work through families? Let’s look at 1 Chronicles 6. Who were the main descendants of note among the Levites? Does ministry still run in families in the church? The sons of Levi were Gershon, Kohath, and ...read more

By God's Grace

Contributed by David Dunn on Oct 8, 2025

God’s grace meets us in our need, empowers us in our weakness, equips us for every good work, and carries us safely home.

True story: at home, the last piece of toast would sometimes spark all kinds of family drama. One morning, that lone slice sat between us on the table. My brother lunged for it, and my sister barked, “Pig!” He backed off; she took it. I watched how, in a second, possession became power. What if ...read more
