    This sermon deals with allowing Jesus to be Lord of our Emotions. It is a revision of Rick Warren;s Message in the 50 Days of Transformation Series. I strongly recommend the series for any church seeking to renew itself. Our church members loved it.

And then there are the battles no calendar can predict: the doctor’s report that makes your heart pound, the prodigal child who has ...read more

    Living a prayer life is as important as the effective prayer time we have with God. Prayer is more than a ritual, it is building a relationship with the most important being in the universe. That’s why this topic is important than all other prayer teachings.

    Our prayer life is examined by our fruitfulness in life. A sponge soaked in oil when it is squeezed spills out oil, and a sponge soaked in water, when squeezed, give out water. What goes inside comes out. If through prayer you have allowed God to work out in your life, godliness and spiritual gifts ...read more
