    Unexpected Jesus

    Contributed by Theresa Ratliff on Mar 25, 2013

    Two followers of Jesus had an encounter on their walk home that changed their lives and opened their eyes.

    Our Church members have had a lot of interest in the Walk to Emmaus lately, and for a good reason. I have never known anyone who went on a Walk that wasn’t tremendously blessed. If you are not saved when you go on the Walk, there is a very good chance you will be saved before you come home. ...read more

    God is going to do a new thing. It won’t fit in our expectations, or in our rules.

    36 He told them this parable: "No one tears a patch from a new garment and sews it on an old one. If he does, he will have torn the new garment, and the patch from the new will not match the old. 37 And no one pours new wine into old wineskins. If he does, the new wine will burst the skins, the ...read more

     | 10,451 views

    You don’t have to do anything to deserve God’s favor, and that’s one of the hardest things to learn about Gods goodness and Favor. The fact that you don’t have to do anything, just boggles a lot of peoples minds.

But “hope” in the Bible is a confident and positive expectation of good. God wants you to have a confident expectation ...read more
