    Contributed by Michael Stark on Aug 27, 2021
    based on 1 rating
     | 4,131 views

    How did Paul become the stalwart we know through his letters? The message is a study of those who stand with us to advance the cause of Christ as others stood with Paul as he laboured for the Master.

    “Brothers, I do not consider that I have made it my own. But one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead, I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus. Let those of us who are mature think this way, and if in anything ...read more

     | 1,836 views

    Let us consider how open doors might be great opportunities to trust God's plan. Do we pray the prison doors open instead of see the opportunity to advance the cross?

    THE CHALLENGE OF THE OPEN DOOR OF TRUST… By Wade Martin Hughes, Sr. Kyfingers@aol.com (YouTube: Wade Hughes) OPEN DOORS CAME IN MANY WAYS! Seems there was a lot of police activity and sirens in the area. This was one of the hottest days of the summer. A lady got out of her car and ...read more

    The objective measure of the progress of a football team is whether they can advance the football toward their goal-line. Paul lays down 4 hash marks to show Christians how to judge their own progress in Christ.

     | 3,884 views

    It would be a tragedy for believers to possess biblical knowledge and spiritual giftedness, and yet never use that knowledge and giftedness for the advancement of the Kingdom. Many churches are stagnant and dead spiritually because they focus upon the wrong things.

I am unfamiliar with all that goes into writing code, software, and the development of apps on my phone. ...read more

    Peter might be riding high on the cloud of joy and excitement as he is reporting to the Church of Jerusalem the advancement of God’s Kingdom to the Gentile. But instead of appreciation and recognition, what he received is objection and criticism. Let's se
