    If you want God to move in your heart, then you are going to have to move His heart.

    Want a True Move of God? Many people today mistaken a great church service for a move of God. But I believe that when God moves, there will be change. God is always about change. We see it in the early church, through our own conversion, etc. 2 Cor 3:18 18 But we all, with ...read more

    What God really wants for Christmas is disciples. Therefore all people should respond to his desire and give Him absolute control of their lives.

    INTRO: Have you ever considered how backwards Christmas is? What if I invited you all to a birthday party for Bethany, and instead of giving gifts to her, you all came and gave gifts to each other? There would be one disappointed 9 year old, I’ll tell you that. Whose birthday is it that we ...read more

    Suppose some organization or person filmed your every action and thought. Would you like the film? Could you bear to watch it? Could you handle the truth about yourself? How are you at facing the truth?

    If You Want Joy

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Mar 13, 2010
    based on 4 ratings
     | 8,743 views

    Genuine joy comes after we do what Christ bids us do, and is grounded in our relationship to Him. In fact, the real issue is not our joy but His.

    If you want joy! What a ridiculous premise! Of course you want joy. Of course we want to be happy. Of course all of us want to feel deep satisfaction with life. We want joy. That's just self-evident. The trouble is, we don't know how to get that joy. We don't understand where joy comes from, how ...read more

    Long before the British royalty, the Bible tells the story of Israel’s royalty. Yet, many of us know so much less about Israel’s royal line than England’s royal line.

    On the birthday of “The King” Elvis Presley, I am grateful to have you join me for a study of royalty.

    God’s will is not nearly the mystery we sometimes make it. God wants the lost saved, Christian to live godly lives, and for believers to pray. All three are inter-related.
