I Want To Be Like Jesus

Contributed by Nettie J Pennington on Apr 15, 2025

In that moment of doubt, we remember the Bereans. Luke admired their ...read more

Satan’s Limitations: Satan Is Not Omnipotent Series

Contributed by Jenny Franklin on Sep 12, 2022

Job 1-2 reveals Satan’s limitations. Satan is not God’s equal opposite. Unlike God, Satan isn’t omnipresent (everywhere), omnipotent (all-powerful) or omniscient (all-knowing). This session’s focus: Satan is not omnipotent; he can only do what God allows. So why does God allow suffering?

************* Satan Is Not OMNIPOTENT (All-Powerful) The Lord asked Satan, “Have you considered my servant Job; there is none like him in the earth. He is a perfect and upright man, who fears God and avoids evil?” Satan asked, “Haven't you made a hedge on every side about him and his house ...read more

Belonging To God In A Broken World

Contributed by Derek Geldart on Jun 21, 2025

In a world of isolation and shallow connection, true belonging is found not through status, performance, or digital affirmation, but through surrendering to Jesus Christ, being born again by the Spirit, and embraced as a beloved child of God, forever known, loved, and secured by the Father.

Belonging to God in a Broken World Matthew 19:16-26; John 3:1-18, 17:1-11 "In an age of constant connection, we’ve never been more relationally malnourished—because our hearts were made for more than clicks; they were made for communion" There was a time when a person’s identity, ...read more
