    All of the beatitudes - and the rewards that accompany them - presuppose humility, acknowledgement of of one's dependence on God's mercy.

    Are you happy? If not, what would it take to make you happy? “What is happiness?” and “How can I get happiness?” are two of the most pressing questions facing people in the United States today. Most of us don’t have to worry a great deal about food, clothing and ...read more

    Ever feel discouraged that life is too much? Fear of failure is common, but God has a secret weapon to deploy on your behalf!

     | 16,074 views

    In his fourth word from the cross, Jesus expresses being forsaken by God. He points out to the exchange that happened that day: our sin on him, God's forgiveness on us. Our right response is to live thankful lives that count the cost of sin.

     | 6,972 views

    The flow of the anointing can be seen throughout the Bible and every significant revival in church history. Simply put, if there were no anointing, there would be no revival. The anointing is the burden removing, yoke destroying power of God.

    The dreams of Joseph lay out the larger vision of what God will fulfill in His life. What can we learn from it about the way God works?

    - Sermon series: “Character Amid Crisis.” - Joseph is not necessary the most important of the OT characters. That would probably go to Abraham or Moses or David.
