    This is about God dwelling with you. He wants you to be holy, pure, right. Will you trust Him and not worry? Will you pray about everything in your life? Will you meditate on the Word of God? And finally, will you practice, will you do, what God calls

    Opening illustration: Two men were marooned on an Island. One man paced back and forth worried and scared while the other man sat back and was sunning himself. The first man said to the second man, "aren’t you afraid we are about to die." "No," said the second man, "I make $100,000 a week and tithe ...read more

    Joe was alone in the Pacific ocean, ten miles from shore, without a life jacket, and worst of all, no one knew that he was overboard.

    I’ve known Joe for twelve years. Joe and his brother Dan own an appliance repair business and have kept our home appliance working for many years. It was unusual for Joe to attend prayer meeting, so I commented to Dan how nice it was to see Joe out on a Wednesday night. "I guess you heard ...read more

    Rapture Suspense

    Contributed by John Gaston on Mar 7, 2013
    based on 4 ratings
     | 7,413 views

    The Bible tells of a man kept in suspense all his life -- waiting for the moment Jesus would come. Since we're waiting like he did, there's a lot of lessons we can learn from him; why God chose him, how he waited daily, and what happened when he saw Jesus

    RAPTURE SUSPENSE Lk. 2:25-33 INTRODUCTION A. HUMOR: SUSPENSE JOKE 1. A man came to the border of a country on his bike. He had three large sacks in the basket. The border guard asked him, "What's in the sacks?" "Sand." The guard searched through the sand and couldn't find anything. 2. A week ...read more

    "Our Identity In Christ (Ii): We Are Sinners And Need God’s Forgiveness”

    Contributed by Benjamin Utomo on Jun 2, 2021
     | 2,379 views

    Knowing who we are in Christ is vital. Without it, we can be confused, lost, and have no meaning and purpose in our lives, and therefore, fail to accomplish God's plans for us. This is the second sermon series on "Our Identity in Christ."

    The second element about "Self-Identity" that we need to understand is that we are human beings who have sinned and need God's forgiveness. Let's read Genesis 3:6 - “When the woman saw that the fruit of the tree was good for food and pleasing to the eye, and also desirable for ...read more

    There is value in the pursuit of Godly Wisdom and at the end of the day it is our relationship with God that matters most.

    June 12, 2021 As we read Scripture, it is easy to get bogged down by all the perceived differences between the ancient and the modern and we wonder, "How does this apply to my life?” My Favorite Thing About PROVERBS and ECCLESIASTES is that they are a practical guide to the value and ...read more

     | 1,774 views

    The responsibility of fatherhood demands that we be careful

    There is a world of difference between being careful and being full of care. Being careful is being responsible, alert, prudent and watchful. It positively says, “Why worry when you can pray?” Being full of care is being anxious, fretful, worried, and restless in the mind and spirit. It ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 8,624 views

    Happiness is a choice. If you do not have it, it is no one else’s fault. It is because you have chosen otherwise. Arrange your priorities and choose the things that really matter.

    “First things First” Philippians 1:20-30 Here we find the great apostle Paul in prison in Rome. There would be some similarities in prison in that day and today but certainly there are some differences as well. In Paul’s day, the prisoner was often shackled, in chains to a guard. This guard had ...read more

     | 542 views

    Even in the face of persecution and life's challenges, how different could we live if we chose to be faithful only to Christ? Even though the 1st century church faced incredible difficulties, God was still faithful to them, and we can learn from that right now!
