     | 7,344 views

    Is God a forethought or afterthought in our life? Are we giving Him platitudes or our whole self? Are we giving Him our all? This series takes a look at how we are serving God.

    Bacon or Eggs Part 1 Scripture: Matthew 6:33; 19:16-26; Mark 12:41-44 Two weeks ago, on August 1st, I was lying in bed when the Spirit of God began to speak to me about our relationship with Him.

    Hope Shines Through Series

    Contributed by Brad Beaman on Mar 1, 2022
     | 3,296 views

    Out of the most desperate situations God is able to do a work of hope. The Messiah is a shoot from the stump of Jesse. From a stump God will raise up a ruler and king. Not just any king but the greatest the world will ever know, the Messiah, King Jesus.

    In what way would you describe the almighty power of God? One way would be to picture a forest. A giant comes along something like “Paul Banyan” who walks through swinging a two sided axe and chops down trees with each swing. It would be like swinging a cycle in a field of wheat. The imagery is ...read more

     | 4,465 views

    We are to walk by faith not sight. Of course you can’t see the outcome of your storm. That would be sight. Why are you so afraid? You have been with Jesus for so long. Do you still have so little faith?

    Are you going through one of life's storms? You need to know if anyone cares. Does Jesus care what happens? If you have visited Israel then no doubt one of your fondest memories of the trip is the Sea of Galilee. This area has so much natural beauty with the fresh water lake surrounded by ...read more

    Three Ways We Sin

    Contributed by Jenny Franklin on May 28, 2022
    based on 1 rating
     | 5,206 views

    I was going door-to-door. I met a woman who said, “I have never sinned.” I knew this wasn’t true. It couldn’t be true; the Bible tells me this is not true.

    None does good, no not one. Romans 3:12, Psalm 14:3 All have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. Romans 3:23 We are all like sheep; we’ve gone astray: everyone has turned to his own way. Isaiah 53:6 I’m reminded of the story of “The Rich Young Ruler,” recorded in Matthew 19:16-26, Mark ...read more

    Christianity Makes No Sense to our Human Way of Thinking. 1. It’s good to be poor and sad? 2. It’s good to be submissive and oppressed?

    Gideon responded positively to the initial conversation about God and God called him to save Israel from the Midianites, who oppressed them for 7 years.

    Before we look at our main passage for today, open your Bibles to Hebrews 11 for a moment…. Look at verses 1-2…… and then we read the “ancients” men and women who lived by faith believing in what God said but actually doing it! Look at Hebrews 11:32-35…. God called Gideon a man of faith.
