    Has There Even Been Anything Like This?

    As I look around the world and around the church today I wonder, if there had ever been anything like this? I sometimes wonder why God lets life continue so wickedly. What can we do in a world and in a church that is growing further away from God?

    “Has There Been Anything Like This” Introduction: Revive us again; Fill each heart with thy love May each soul be rekindled with fire from above Hallelujah, thine the glory Hallelujah, amen Hallelujah thine the glory Revive us again In just two weeks we come to a time of revival here at Oak Grove. ...read more

    Is Jesus a king? How does Jesus compare to government leaders of this world? What is the truth of Jesus’ reign?

    Is God’s kingdom meant to just rule in our hearts or is there more to it? Is Jesus a king? How does Jesus compare to government leaders of this world? What is the truth of Jesus’ reign?

    Eve was created solely from Adam - nothing else was added - Eve was not a composite. What was once a part of Adam’s body, without independent consciousness, became an extension of him as another life and together they became one flesh. Since the sai

    Joy To The World

    Contributed by Marc Phillips on Dec 18, 2015
     | 5,949 views

    We should carry our Joy in everything we do. Our joy is a gift of the Holy Spirit and when we are less than joyful we are squashing that spirit. Joy to the World is not just for Christmas, but for all year long!

    Scripture is shared from the NASB... We just sang Joy to the World as a praise song, and I think we did a pretty good job of it. I’d like to try this exercise together if you would indulge me for a moment. Let’s sing that first verse again, only let’s do it with a scowl or a ...read more

    Overcoming The World

    If you have faith in Christ, you already have every resource to be an overcomer. God doesn’t allow us to surrender to worldly pressure or to hide ourselves away. But He says that in Christ we can conquer and gain the victory. Who is it that will overcome and persevere? Only the one who believes!

    What we do today isn’t very exciting. For we’re just a small church in a big world. We’re reading an old book, and we’re talking about an old story. Yet a Christian has been given different eyes, and we look at things in a different way. Beneath the surface, God helps us to see things as they ...read more
