Aligning My Will With God’s Series

Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Jan 21, 2018

The amazing story of Jonah reminds us: 1) Don't run from God, 2) When life gets you down, look up, 3) Respond to God's second chance, and 4) Get God's heart for people. Like Jonah, we need to give up the "reluctant prophet" role and stay in God's will.

The Immensity Of God’s Resources

Contributed by John Lowe on Feb 17, 2017

Working In God’s Vineyard Series

Contributed by Tesh Njokanma on Jun 5, 2018
