In winter, when streams and lakes were frozen, large blocks of ice were cut, hauled to the ice houses, and ...read more

    Entire sanctification means knowing where righteousness comes from. Any righteousness we have comes to us on the basis of faith in Christ Jesus. Thus, it is easy to give up any puny notion that our earthly qualifications gave us merit.

    During that time, I discovered that when a person is able to face terrifying obstacles with the assurance that God is truly in control, an awesome sense of power, strength, assurance, and confidence begins to well up inside your heart.

    God is in Control Psalm 103:19-22 I remember a particular time in my life when I was struggling a bit with discouragement, doubt, fear, and loneliness.

    Epiphany 2: Does God still speak with us today? How can we tell if what we hear is God’s voice? How do we position ourselves to better hear the Word of God? This message attempts to answer these questions.

    Here are three questions that I want to answer in this message: 1) Does God really speak to people? 2) If so, how do we know that it is God Who is talking? And finally, 3) How do we position ourselves to better hear the voice of God? In order to answer these questions, we’re going to look at Samuel ...read more
