    Contributed by Ed Sasnett on Aug 25, 2015
     | 8,955 views

I was trying to be calm and collected, but I acted more like a caged lion. Suddenly a big door swung open and a gowned nurse was holding ...read more

    Jesus meets a Samaritan woman at a well. Jesus is absolutely willing to break cultural norms. He is led by scripture. And the meeting brings great results.

    We use the phrase "The Pursuit of Jesus" all the time. But what happens when we catch Him? And at the end of the day, is it we who are pursuing Jesus, or is it the other way around?

    The Pursuit Romans 12 Good morning! Please turn to Romans 12. This week I spent way more time than I should have watching greyhound races. Don’t worry. I wasn’t betting any money.

    How To Keep Your Vision Alive

    Contributed by Benjamin Suulola on Mar 13, 2023
     | 4,055 views

    It takes a God-like vision to make positive difference, bring transformation and to impact our generation for the Lord. But having a God-given vision is not important as being able to keep the vision alive.

    Vision is simply the ability to see what God is doing and the role apportioned to you in bringing it to reality. Your God-given vision is one of the most important reasons for your living. When there is no vision of God to be accomplished with one's life, the purpose of living becomes ...read more
