    The Real St. Patrick "from Captive To Courageous"

    Contributed by Kelly Benton on Mar 3, 2026
     | 130 views

    Patrick’s story gives us snapshots — moments of pain, calling, forgiveness, obedience — and with each moment, we’re going to anchor it in God’s Word. Because the power is not in Patrick. The power is in the truth of Scripture that shaped him.

    When most people hear “Saint Patrick,” they think: Shamrocks. Parades. Corned beef. Green everything. But Patrick was not about parties. He was about purpose. He was not Irish by birth. He was not lucky. He was not chasing comfort. He was a kidnapped teenager who became a missionary to the very ...read more

     | 895 views

    Using our words wisely is crucial for healthy relationships. We should learn to sit with others in their pain, use our words to build others up, guard our hearts, and be aware of our options to speak positively or negatively.

    Today, we're going to talk about our words. You know, those things we say without thinking sometimes? Yeah, those. Let's see what the Bible has to say about it. Ever heard of a guy named Job? Dude had it rough. Lost everything. His friends came to visit him, and you know what they did? They didn't ...read more

    based on 9 ratings
     | 14,683 views

    Both the pervasiveness and pain of loneliness is well known and documented. But what does the Bible and the Church have to say and do about it? Bottom line: loneliness can only e overcome through intimate relationships with Jesus and other people.

    The Lord transferred all of his emotional pain to the care of His Father. Ask the Lord to take away whatever burden you are facing allowing Him to do whatever He wants with your life - stop resisting His will!

    1. Jesus struggled with feelings of emotional discouragement like everyone, but He prayed, "Father, if you are willing, take this cup from me; yet not my will, but yours be done."

     | 5,933 views

    Without question many of our most painful chapters in life have to do with soured relationships. That’s why we’re considering this in our final message in our series "When Bad Things Happen to Good People."

    Introduction A 104 year-old woman was being interviewed by a Christian reporter. The reporter asked the woman if it was easier or more difficult to live the Christian life the older you get.

    This is a hard lesson to learn. No one likes to wait. We want what we want from God when we want it. However, it is in our times of loneliness – loss- pain - sorrow - that we are driven to the very heart of God.

    "coming Home"

    Contributed by David Henderson on Dec 3, 2019
    based on 3 ratings
     | 3,854 views

    This is perhaps one of the most powerful stories in Scripture to me because the two people who Jesus interacts with come from two completely different backgrounds -one from a nice, comfortable home and one from a home that was filled with pain.

    “Coming Home” Mark 5:21-43 One of my heroes in Scripture is the great apostle Paul. Of the 27 books in the New Testament, we believe at least 13 were written by him. About one half. One of those was his letter to the church in Ephesus and in chapter 3 and verse 20 he says this... “Now to HIM who ...read more

    Sometimes “maybe” is all I have. Finding faith when I am in pain, when my world is crumbling, when I don’t understand is difficult. Lord, I believe, help me overcome my unbelief.”

    When Faith Falters (Mark 9:14-29) Intro: A. For Peter, James and John life was incredible. They had witness Jesus radiating like the sun; they had seen two great heroes (Moses and Elijah) who were dead, but obviously living talking to Jesus; they had heard the voice of God ...read more

    Sometimes success hits our head and we rashly do things that are contrary to our character. Anybody listening? We need a pinch of failure, pain and humiliation NOW AND THEN in order to keep us grounded in God and His ways. Agree?
