    Through Ezekiel the Prophet, God provides a certain destiny and purpose of the modern Christian church and most of us will probably be surprised to hear it.

    In Alice in Wonderland, when Alice comes to a junction in the road that leads in different directions, she asks the Cheshire Cat, "Cheshire-Puss...would you tell me please, which way I ought to go from here?" "That depends a good deal on where you want to go to," said the Cat. "I don't much ...read more

    A VISION is God’s BLUEPRINT of His Plan for mankind. A VISION is God’s way of REVEALING His Purpose to man. A VISION is accompanied by KNOWLEDGE of the Word of God. The more you are EXPOSED to the Word of God, the CLEARER the VISION.

     | 27,877 views

    God's purpose for our lives in Christ is clearly for His glory and our good. That begins NOW as we fulfill His purposes and let Christ shine through us to others.

    How to let Christ Shine in You We’ve looked at Jesus as the door into God’s presence. We’ve talked about how to get “into Christ” and be “into Christ” in our lives. Last week we saw that what we are to get out of church is Christ. Today, let’s turn ...read more

    Churches and preachers may have told you in the past that if you don’t put God first you might be in sin. I want to tell you that nowhere in the Bible it says that if you don’t put God first you are committing a sin…oh what a relief! The bad news is that

    Matthew 6:33 33 But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you. How are your priorities organized? Are you seeking love first? Money first? Kids first? Hobbies first? Churches and preachers may have told you in the past that if you don’t ...read more

    Pure Worship

     | 5,302 views

    Sometimes we want to put our worship of God in a box that we only break out on Sunday mornings. Worship, however, is much bigger than that.

    I grew up in what I would consider, lower middle class. In the schools I went to as a kid there were really 3 levels of kids when it came to income. You had the rich kids. These kids had a Playstation AND N64, which were big when I was kid. They had huge houses and a TV in every room. Then you had ...read more

    How can I, as a believer, walk in the victory that is my heritage in Christ?

    Two people, each claiming to be a Christian, lose their job. One falls into a severe depression; while the other retrains himself and enters an entirely new field of employment, discovering more fulfillment than he ever had in his old job. The difference?

    Elijah's Depression

    Contributed by Johnny Wilson on Aug 11, 2009

     | 10,032 views

    Beginning with a monologue that takes some poetic license as Elijah passes the mantle to Elisha, this teaching gives tips from a Biblical model on dealing with depression.

    [This sermon began with a monologue. It presumed that Elijah needed to fill Elisha in on what had gone before. With dramatic license, it recounts what is in the Bible’s account, even though the Bible doesn’t specify that Elijah actually filled Elisha in or needed to fill Elisha in on Elijah’s ...read more
