    The Power & Love In Jesus' Name Series

    Contributed by James Wallace on Mar 4, 2025

    Jesus promised we would do the same kind of miracles that Jesus Himself did in John 14:12-14. In Acts 3 Peter and John simply obeyed Jesus commands in John 14 and it resulted in a mass divine appointment. You can do the same, by boldly and publicly praying in Jesus' name.

    I suppose it was probably 15 or 20 years ago when I got a call from a young lady in our church who was working as a phlebotomist at St. Mary's Hospital in Reno.

    A wife should "submit" to their husbands? Seriously? What can that mean, and what does it teach wives about their ministry to their families?

    OPEN: A 2 year old girl had a fascination with the story of “Cinderella.” One day, when the girl came across a photo of her mother and father on their wedding day, she got all excited. “Mommy got married just like Cinderella!” “Yes honey,” the mother answered. “just like Cinderella.” Then there ...read more

    I often wondered, especially in times like these, why would the author use the word ‘GLAD’ when referring to this earthly life being over? Can we find a sense of Gladness even when a life has been cut so short and abruptly?

    Many so-called Christian churches claim that believers can only maintain a right relationship with God and the hope of heaven through the priests, or mediators, that they have authorized for these purposes. Does God's word support such a teaching. Find out from Hebrews 7:1-19.
