     | 16,462 views

    Unbelief is one of the greatest hinderances to the Christian life and in some capacity it is the root of nearly every sin - learn how to practically crush every aspect of unbelief in your life and ministry.

    Unbelief Malcolm Mugridge - "Our 20th century, far from being notable for scientific skepticism, is one of the most credulous in all of history. It is not that people believe in nothing, which would be bad enough, but that they believe in anything, which is really terrible.”

    The Office Of The Prophet

    Contributed by Ed Warfield on Feb 29, 2008
     | 5,649 views

    The five-fold ministry is important to the Church fulfilling her end-time destiny. The prophet serves to declare that Jesus is the source of all gifts, including the miracle of new life itself.

    The Office of the Prophet Intro.: Every month hundreds of pastors resign their churches and leave the ministry. There are many reasons for this but I believe the most significant is “unreasonable expectations”. In most churches, the pastor is expected to function in every role- prophet, priest & ...read more

    Before Jesus ascends, the disciples get a crash course on what is needed to carry on the ministry of Jesus to which they have been called--and they just thought they were going fishing.

    John 21:1-19 “Lessons on Obedience and Forgiveness” INTRODUCTION The school year is drawing to a close. Both students and teachers are talking about the end of school and are looking forward to the summer break. Before the end of school can occur, though, students must take the dreaded final ...read more

    How is the soil of your heart? Are you ready to receive what God has to say? Learn what true repentance means and doesn’t mean in the ministry of John the Baptist.

    The most amazing thing is that Elijah was the greatest of all the prophets and had the most effective ministry and yet, he reaches a point where the burdens and challenges become too much for him

    The Wilderness Experience I Kings 19:1-5, 11b-12 Today’s Scripture is about Elijah the Prophet. He ministered from 873 BC to 832 BC in response to actions of King Ahab and Queen Jezebel.

     | 13,140 views

    Jesus had personally demonstrated His authority previously in Matthew. He now delegates that same authority to His apostles so that they may carry out His ministry to the world.

    MATTHEW 10: 1-6 [THE MESSIAH REVEALED] THE TWELVE APOSTLES Chapter 10 is a transition in Jesus' training of the twelve. Until this time they had been observers with little involvement in the miracles or teachings, Here they are commissioned and sent out with authority to do what they had ...read more

    The Coming Of Christ In John Series

    Contributed by Ron Tuit on Oct 2, 2015
     | 4,538 views

    The word "come" is extremely important in the purpose and ministry of Jesus; it is also important in the teaching of salvation. We are taking a few weeks to understand the "coming of the Kingdom of God" in the gospels and Old Testament.

    “The Coming of Christ in John” John 5:43 Did you ever notice how important little words are? Many times we might throw out “big two dollar words” with the intention of impressing people, but the ...read more

    God's Powerful Word Incarnate

    Contributed by Roger Hutto on Dec 29, 2017

    Jesus is described as God in the flesh. He is the most definitive expression of who God is and what he is like. Just what does Jesus life and ministry reveal about God?

    God's Powerful Word Incarnate John 1:1-5, 10-14; Hebrews 1:1-3; Philippians 2:5-8 They say a picture is worth a thousand words, because sometimes words just can't adequately describe an experience, or a person, or even a scenic view.
