    "This story has resonated with countless hearts across generations, and it continues to do so because it speaks to the very essence of the human experience – our capacity for both rebellion and redemption, for wandering away and finding our way back."

    Introduction: Dear brothers and sisters, today we will study on a profound journey through the pages of Scripture—a journey that unveils the depth of God's forgiveness and exposes two critical aspects of human nature: the sin of self-dependency, as embodied by the younger son, and the sin of ...read more

    This message is about discovering something or someone who is lost and how the joy that floods a soul-winner's heart cannot be described in words but can only be felt in a heart that has already experienced the grace of God.

    Look At Yourself

    Contributed by Kelvin Mckisic on Oct 15, 2023
     | 2,129 views

    Taking a long honest look at ourselves is one of the hardest things for us to do. Admitting that I need help, something is wrong in my life is very difficult.

    Then He said: “A certain man had two sons. And the younger of them said to his father, ‘Father, give me the portion of goods that falls to me.’ So he divided to them his livelihood. And not many days after, the younger son gathered all together, journeyed to a far country, and there wasted his ...read more

     | 2,419 views

    Not everyone is willing to forgive the truly repentant. This lack of forgiveness can be divided int three categories at least.

    Why Some Will Not Forgive Luke 15:25-32 Review: We forgive as God does, conditioned upon repentance. When we wrong another, and we take responsibility and ask forgiveness for the specific wrong, things are then out of our hands. If people forgive us, it is out of their graciousness. If they do ...read more
