Sermon # 39 - Eradicate Envy Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Jun 15, 2023

Are we targets of envy or do we sometimes envy others? Jealousy is a strong emotion that can cause much harm, and God’s word teaches us how to deal with it and be rid of it from our lives.

Sermon # 42 - Rejection To Restoration Series

Contributed by Andrew Dixon on Aug 6, 2025

Rejection is painful, but interestingly those who are rejected by men are the ones whom God joyfully embraces to fulfill His plans and His purposes. The bible is full of examples of such people who though rejected by men were restored and honored by God.

Today’s meditation is taken from Matthew 21:42, Jesus said to them, "Haven't you ever read what the Scriptures say? 'The stone which the builders rejected as worthless turned out to be the most important of all. This was done by the Lord; what a wonderful sight it is!' (GNB) There ...read more
