    Our Spouse Is To Be Our Number One Earthly Priority Series

    Sermon by Dr. Tim Pollock

    God designed marriage to be the number one priority in our lives outside of our relationship with the Lord. It should be even closer than the biological connection of a mother and her child. As wonderful as it is to focus on your children, the most precious of all relationships is ...read more

    When Our Heart Walk After Our Eyes

    Contributed by James Dina on Jun 25, 2021
     | 3,960 views

    Watch your eyes and heart with great diligence. Guard your eyes lest they ensnare your heart. Look to your hearts, lest they be ensnared by your eyes. Where the eye is full of adultery, the heart is full of it too.

    WHEN OUR HEART WALK AFTER OUR EYES " If my step has turned out of the way, and my heart walked after mine eyes, and if any blot has cleaved to mine hands;" (JOB 31:7) Can the heart walk after the eyes? OR Can the eye misled the heart? That's the question that comes across your ...read more

    Our Directions Determines Our Destination (1 Of 2)

     | 572 views

    In this scripture passage, I want to show you a family that lived among God’s people, and then due to some hard times, they packed up and moved.

    You might be saying, “So what!” People move from one city to another all the time because of HARD TIMES! That is correct, but anytime we find something in the Word of God, it is there for a reason. WHAT IS THE REASON GOD PUT THIS FAMILY IN THE SCRIPTURES FOR MOVING? Because it was a ...read more

    He explained that the wealthy man had: • Wonderful clothes, • Lived in luxury • Had all the food he could eat But he had no compassion for Lazarus, who was a beggar. Lazarus was so poor that he ate the crumbs from the rich man’s table. • Later in their lives, the rich man ended up dying and ...read more

    When Challenges Come Our Way, Jesus Already Has A Plan

    Contributed by Neal Nybo on Apr 23, 2018
    based on 1 rating
     | 7,932 views

    By looking at Jesus feeding the 5000, we realize Jesus already knows what he wants to do in your situation. Don’t limit the possibilities to only what you can imagine. And, remember what Jesus has done in the past and trust him for something big.

    For those of us who want Jesus to be predictable, I have bad news and good news. The bad news is. Jesus is not predictable. Never has been, never will be. The good news is, he knows what he is doing and its all for the best. The disciples experienced the same kind of hopes and expectations. It ...read more

    Heaven Is A Party Series

    Contributed by Robert Leroe on Jun 24, 2013
     | 6,982 views

    Heaven is party-central, and the party starts now, but doesn't get into full gear till we get to Heaven, or when Jesus returns--whichever comes first.

    When Biblical writers speak of Heaven, they often use figurative language. I suspect the reason is that they’re trying to express heavenly realities with the limitations of human language. Trying to describe Heaven to us is like trying to describe this world to an unborn child. And so ...read more

    The prophet Elijah passed his mantle to Elisha. We are, as disciples, called to leave a legacy for those who come after us. What legacy are we leaving?

    What an amazing story we read as we conclude The Elijah Chronicles. We’ve followed our hero through great and challenging times and some even greater miracles. We’ve also reflected on a time that life got the best of him. Through it all, by God’s grace, Elijah was able to overcome ...read more
