    Life is not always measured by failures and successes? Often we measure life by how many times we try? Get up and try again.

    It is easier to start something than it is to finish. God desires us to encourage other people to finish the race that set before us. We must invest our time, talent and energy into the ministry of finishing what God has called us to do,

    A Blessing In Disguise

    I wonder if a person truly understands what it means when they respond, “I’m blessed.” There are two types of blessings: worldly blessings and spiritual blessings.

    TITLE: A BLESSING IN DISGUISE SCRIPTURE: II CHRONICLES 20:24-30 Oftentimes when we greet one another and ask - ‘how are you’ the response we receive is ‘I’m Blessed.’ Very often we think having a blessed week means that things went well with us, no one got sick in the family - bills were paid ...read more

    God Of Love, God Of Justice: A Future Heaven, A Future Hell

    Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Apr 26, 2021
     | 998 views

    God's works are many in the world and of particular beauty. Yet there is also the proclivity of man toward evil. God allows for free will, which opens the doors to almost any possibility. Which explains why the world is so messed up.

    “There are only two kinds of people in the end: those who say to God, "Thy will be done," and those to whom God says, in the end, "Thy will be done." All that are in Hell, choose it. Without that self-choice there could be no Hell. No soul that seriously and constantly desires ...read more

    Cannot the people see the chastisement of God upon them, cannot they see that God is willing to bless, but He will not bless the unclean thing.

    Consider, The Past, Present and Future? Consider the past. A time when we were prosperous and growing? Consider the past, when God added to the church daily, such as needed to be saved. Consider the past, when many were healed and redeemed, many were set free from captivity, oppression and ...read more

    Forgotten But Not Abandoned

    Contributed by Gerry Takaria on Nov 18, 2025
     | 92 views

    Job, Joseph, and Daniel were faithful men who faced silence from God in their hardest times. Job lost everything, Joseph was forgotten, and Daniel was exiled and thrown into a lions’ den. Even when God seemed absent, their stories remind us that His silence never means His absence.

    INTRODUCTION: One of the most powerful true stories in church history about a seemingly “silent” God who nonetheless cares for His people can be found in the life of Dietrich Bonhoeffer, a German theologian and Christian pastor during the Nazi era. The Story of Dietrich Bonhoeffer Dietrich ...read more
