    God takes that which is dark, formless and void and creates new and wonderful life.

    Sitting in her car - on a dark road just outside of town, a young high school girl looks at her life. This is what she sees: „Y I am overweight „Y I have no friends „Y My future holds no promise As she slides the bullet in the chamber of her father¡¦s 38 revolver, she thinks; "It¡¦s no use - ...read more

    I Don't Need God!

    There are too many people today that don't understand, they truly need God! God needs to be the biggest part of our lives in whatever we may do. For ourselves, our families, our friends, our work... we need to make God a part of all these things. Put God back into your Life!

    The other day I was sitting and speaking with a stranger and, as it always seems to do, the topic of God came up. I guess it’s probably because most people I know, know me. They know my beliefs; they know what I do; and they know of my passion for God. This gentleman, a little older than myself, ...read more

    God’s press conference to the world is good news about His Son that is intended for all people.

    If God were to call a press conference and issue a news release for the world today, what do you think he would say? Some people think they know what God would say, but do we really know? Some think God would say, "I’m really mad at you guys, and if you don’t knock it off I’m going to send ...read more

    Often we set a New Year's Resolution, because there is a part of ourselves we are not happy with, or we want to live better than we have before. The world says we can't change. But with God, nothing is impossible.

    Who here has ever made a new year’s resolution? How many people have actually stuck with it? I have made a new year’s resolution many times. A common one for me has been to lose weight, and get into shape. However, needless to say, I never lost weight. And I came to the realisation, ...read more

    The fire had no power, nor was an hair of their head singed, neither were their coats changed, nor the smell of fire had passed.

    Daniel 3:24-27 Then Nebuchadnezzar the king was astounded, and rose up in haste, and spake, and said unto his counsellors, Did not we cast three men bound into the midst of the fire? They answered and said unto the king, True, O king. 25 He answered and said, Lo, I see four men loose, walking in ...read more

    Even after Peter's wonderful surprises when Jesus was raised from the dead, he was still struggling to get past his failure. In John 21, we see Jesus giving Peter the opportunity to be reinstated to his role of apostle and leader.

    A. I want to begin this morning with a poem by Louisa Fletcher: “I wish that there were some wonderful place Called the Land of Beginning Again. Where all our mistakes and all our heartaches And all of our poor selfish grief Could be dropped like a shabby old coat at the door And ...read more

    Because of Easter we have a new community. Jesus says that the church is important because of it's foundation, it's function, it's fruit and it's future.

    EASTER – A NEW FELLOWSHIP I heard the story of a pastor who was the supply preacher for church in a small town in Texas. He would drive to that town early Sunday morning, preach a sermon to the congregation, and then leave after lunch. Usually he would arrive before the service and go to a local ...read more

    If you want to do well in an era of “fake news,” first, don’t believe everything you hear. Instead, consult the Lord about everything; keep your word and confront the lie.

    This last week, as I was preparing for this message, I came across some very interesting research. In His book, The Honest Truth about Dishonesty, Dan Ariely says, “Over the course of many years of teaching, I have noticed that there typically seems to be a rash of deaths among students' ...read more

    In Romans 1:1–7 Paul unfolds 7 aspects of the good news of Jesus Christ: 1) The Preacher (Rom. 1:1) and Promise (Rom. 1:2), 2) Person (Rom. 1:3-4), 3) Provision , Proclamation, Purpose (Rom. 1:5), and finally the 4) Privileges of the Good News (Rom. 1:7)

    A quick look at any newspaper, a radio update or TV newscast, reminds us that in our world most news is bad and seems to be getting worse. What is happening on a national and worldwide scale is simply the magnification of what is happening on an individual level. As personal problems, animosities, ...read more

    The study contrasts Heaven with our present situation. What can we expect in Heaven? For many of us, we need to change our perception of what shall be.

    “I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and the sea was no more. And I saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, ...read more
