    As the Church we should always strive to be a strong imitation of God.

    In Senior High you really imitate each other. What becomes trendy for one eventually becomes trendy for everyone else? When I was in H.S. the thing to do was to role up your jeans at the bottom, there was even a certain fold you had to follow, and everybody did it. Everybody’s hair was feathered in ...read more

     | 13,702 views

    This message stresses the need for a holy hunger for God. Far too many Christians and churches have lost much of their appetite to know God more deeply, and serve Him more faithfully.

But actually, a person can experience a hunger for almost anything. The world in which we live is literally full of hungry ...read more

    based on 5 ratings
     | 21,494 views

    The sermon seeks to challenge believers to break out of their shells by becoming more Christ-centred and focus on the Kingdom. It is an attempt to try to correct the imbalance in seeking God's kingdom benefits only without wanting to do the right things.

    When there is a need for expansion (enlargement, explosion, increment, prosperity, moving to the next level, promotion, advancement, progress, uplifting, success, magnification, addition, augmentation, amplification, elevation and excellence) but constriction is a challenge, then its time to break ...read more
