Quiet Strength

Contributed by Jerry Cosper on May 28, 2019

We often associate loudness with strength. But God disproves this misconception.

Quiet Strength 1 Kings 19: 9-14; Isaiah 30:15 Tonight, I want to talk about quiet strength. It almost seems to be human nature to think that being loud denotes strength. I have known a number of people over the years that think that the louder they are, the stronger they appear to be. You ...read more

Open My Eyes Of Faith. Series

Contributed by Patrick Usifo on Oct 14, 2017

This is the story of two men. One saw the light and the other saw nothing. One lives in the supernatural and the other in the natural. Our faith is directly related to how we perceive the unseen presence of the Lord as Prophet Elisha and his servant.

It was the time of a great deterioration in the religious life of the children of Israel. During this period, the nation has descended to the worship of Baal introduced by ...read more

Mary's Song

Contributed by Robert Leroe on Dec 13, 2015

The Magnificat. We should take Mary seriously. Jesus' mother is also our mother. She is a “mother” to all who accept Jesus as Lord. Her most significant role is to point us to her Son.

Christmas songs bring back memories. When I hear certain carols, I'm transported back to my childhood in Germany. I especially remember Stille Nacht, the German hymn by Fr Joseph Mohr that celebrates Jesus, born of a virgin, sleeping in heavenly peace. Here in Luke chapter one we see Mary's song, ...read more

Our society has hijacked Christmas from all of us over the years turning it into one of the biggest commercial events ever. We have to stop this attack on our sacred holiday and tell the world sorry – Christmas is about The Prince of Peace.
