    We can build a life that can withstand storms by building upon: 1) A Wise Foundation (Matthew 7:24) which is also 2) A Withstanding Foundation (Matthew 7:25) instead of just a 3) A Wishful Foundation (Matthew 7:26-27).

    Matthew 7:24-27. 24 “Everyone then who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock. 25 And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house, but it did not fall, because it had been founded on the rock. 26 And everyone ...read more

    Imagine being "at the top of your game" and giving it all up for a life of uncertainty. Jesus calls all men everywhere to repent and whether you are at the top of your game or hitting rock bottom, his way is the best way.

    Life Swapping Luke 5:1—11 INTRODUCTION The quarterback who has just guided his team to the National Championship, the CEO of a corporation who has just taken his company public with great fanfare, a Presidential candidate who has just been elected by a landslide, these are all modern examples of ...read more

     | 185 views

    The loss of a family member or friend can be very difficult. As we get older we begin to lose so many. Death is always a very sad and sobering time. But our Lord offers comfort to sustain us.

    I. WHAT IS OUR LIFE? A. All of Life is on a Timetable - In the physical sense, we are born to die. But, in the spiritual sense, we are born to live. What then is our life?  It is even a vapor, that appears for a little time and then vanishes away. God knows our frame; He ...read more

    Why Was Jesus So Popular? Series

    Contributed by Jim Butcher on Jul 18, 2023
     | 1,584 views

    This passage gives us insight into why Jesus became so popular so quickly. It also points out to us something that we emphasize in the modern American church that was not a part of Jesus' popularity.

    VERSE 15 IS THE CENTERPIECE OF THIS PASSAGE: This is a story and testament to Jesus’ quickly rising popularity early in His ministry. - Luke 5:15. - It would be easy to see this passage as another miracle story, but I think it serves a more specific purpose in Luke’s gospel. Jesus has just called ...read more

    Mary, the mother of our Lord Jesus Christ, was just like many of us—a person of low estate. Actually, all humans are of low estate compared to God. Yet, in spite of Mary's poor and obscure background, God chose to bless her to be the mother of our Lord.

    “And blessed is she that believed: for there shall be a performance of those things which were told her from the Lord. And Mary said, My soul does magnify the Lord, and my spirit has rejoiced in God my Savior. For He has regarded the low estate of His handmaiden: for, behold, from henceforth all ...read more

    How should one ’feel’ when rubbing shoulders with God? Can we be expected to feel something specific to the occasion? Maybe what I feel and how I behave has much to do with how I understand authority; how I respect or despise it; maybe my behaving and fee

    Worship is offering our whole, everyday lives to God, allowing His mercy to transform us so we bear fruit and reflect Christ in all we do.

    He who gave sight to the blind desires to give you sight in the spiritual world. Jesus wants to light your way & lead you into life. Into your darkness of sin & uncertainty Jesus shines so that He may lead you into eternal life.

    JOHN 8: 12-20 THE LIGHT OF LIFE Once again Jesus intensifies the heated controversy with the amazing claim that He is the Light of the World.
