    We need to know that when we are in the heat of a situation, that the Lord is there to help us.

    The superscription to this Psalm tells us that it is a "Song of Degrees” that this is a Psalm that worshipers would sing as they made their way to Jerusalem to participate in the three great annual feasts; Passover, Pentecost and Tabernacles. With that in mind, it is plain to see that this is ...read more

    Christian belonging is our witness to a world of superficial relationships and influencer networking. Connection to a group of individuals due to attraction, identification and cohesion

    Today we continue our series entitled, The ABC’s of faith. The larger idea is based on the idea that we learn over time through an exploration process of success and failure.

    The survivors of the Babylonian destruction had a terrible time. Even to get food was very risky, and because of starvation, the famine caused the skin to become hot, and earlier on, dry like wood. The army raped the women in all of Judah. We consider that infamy of debased men.

    Introduction OK, so last week we spoke of the ministry of the Holy Spirit in the life of the Believer, but you noticed some things were missing. There was no mention of the gifts of the Spirit, no mention of the fruit of the Spirit, so what gives? Doesn’t God want us to have these? Of course ...read more
