    Paul offers another example for the church to follow, guiding their faith. He offers a word of caution, seeking to guard them from apostasy. Finally he offers a word of comfort regarding the Lord's return, a guarantee for the believer.

    Guided, Guarded, and Guaranteed Philippians 3: 17-21 A young boy looked up at his grandfather and wondered aloud, "Grandpa, how do you live for Jesus?" The respected grandfather stooped down and quietly told the boy, "Just watch." As the years went by the grandfather was an example to the boy ...read more

    Jacob had an encounter with God that shook him to his core. This fugitive on the run discovered that his ancestors' God was his God, and that this God would be with him wherever he went. Great lessons for us to learn on our faith pilgrimage.

You might expect to encounter God at a church retreat or a revival meeting, or in an inspiring church service. You might expect to find God when you are serving him with all your heart. But Jacob had ...read more

    "Prayer Works" ... Or Does It?

    Contributed by Stephen Belokur on Aug 18, 2017
     | 8,179 views

    What does the unchurched world hear when they hear us say "Prayer works" or "Prayer changes things". Is that enough of a clear message to actually mean anything to those who don't know what real prayer actually is?

    As Jesus sent the twelve out to serve, He paired them according to His divine will and sent them out as He desired. They enjoyed His power and guidance. We too can rest in His power and provision as we seek to serve Him.

    Bill Bright, who is the founder of campus Crusade for Christ said this-in all the surveys we have done, all over the world, our research indicates that approximately 95% of all believers do not know how to effectively share their faith.

    “Real Disciples catch Fish” John 1: 35-42 When it comes down to sharing our faith I think there are two things that are pretty much true for all of us. First, every one of us want to see our friends and family come to know Jesus. I want to see everyone in this community come to Christ. That’s why ...read more
