Contributed by Bubot Parago on Feb 21, 2019

it is as if Peter is no longer standing on water but standing on the Word “COME” of our Lord... Peter had a solid rock word on his feet. That is, until he saw the wind. Can you imagine he can see the wind?

In this hurry-up world, fast-paced technologies, waiting for anything can cause us to lose our temper, our patience and our good sense—more frequently than we care to admit!

Blessing Of Power Series

Contributed by Robert Leroe on Oct 25, 2015

The Blessing Of Holiness Series

Contributed by Robert Leroe on Nov 1, 2015

Holiness is part of a process whereby God makes us more like Christ. It isn't just what we do in church on Sunday that marks us as holy; it is being faithful during the week, before the watching world...letting our light shine.
