Contributed by Adebayo Adefioye on Sep 26, 2022

In this world of uncertainty and distractions, fixing your eyes only on Jesus can guarantee a glorious end

TOPIC - FIX YOUR EYES ON JESUS There was a game we used to play as a kid whereby you lock/fix gazes and the person that blinked first loses. The same with Christ. The moment you lose your gaze on Him, you begin to fall/sink. Check Matthew 14:15-33. Fixing your eyes on Christ means focusing your ...read more

Is It Worth The Risk?

Contributed by Pastor/Author: Terry Sisney on Oct 7, 2022

There is a balance we live by every day, it is the balance of... risk vs reward. Every believer must ask themselves, is it worth the risk to follow Jesus into the faith zone? Or will you live the rest of your life sitting in the safe zone?

Sermon Text: Matthew 14:22-32 When Jesus Says Come: He has just opened a door for you to a greater life than you could imagine, but it will cost you something to get it. There will be a risk. Let me say this to you, life comes with risk. * Every time you get on the freeway, you are taking a ...read more

"Stepping Out” Pt. 6 Series

Contributed by Sean Dees on Mar 3, 2022

We have to share and write the vision in clear and simple ways so that the believers can see it and run with it. We have to get them to see what we are seeing from the Lord.

In this series we have gone from the former things to the latter. I asked for you to get plugged in to the vision, and then challenged you to leave your comfort zone and run to the gift zone, which prepared you for the challenge zone which takes you to the end zone. I told you that you have a ...read more

Fix Your Eyes On Jesus

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 9, 2022

In this account, Jesus’ disciples neither totally believed nor totally disbelieved His power to rescue them. We can’t ride the fence. We must keep our eyes fixed only on Jesus before we can expect to see Him work in our life.

Os Guinness tells us in his book In Two Minds, “To believe is to be ‘in one mind’ about accepting something as true; to disbelieve is to be ‘in one mind’ about rejecting it. To doubt is to waver between the two, to believe and disbelieve at once and so be ‘in two minds’.”(1) This morning we are ...read more

Just Like Us (Part Six) Series

Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Mar 25, 2019

Last week we looked at Joshua and David. Joshua defeated Jericho but when he lost a battle to Ai his response was extreme. David was a man after God's own heart yet he committed adultery and had her husband killed. Today we'll look at Peter and see how he was just like us.

JUST LIKE US (part six) Joshua was the successor to Moses. No one in the entire nation of Israel believed they could conquer Canaan except him and Caleb. When he was leading them into battle against Jericho, God told him to march around the city seven times and blow the trumpets and the wall would ...read more

Peter - The Man That Walked On Water.
