The Greek word for comforter is (Parakleton) and is rendered “advocate” in 1 John 2:1. The word means “one ...read more

    Every electrical appliance you purchase comes with a trouble shooting guide. The purpose of this guide is to instruct you what to check for if the appliance is not running. The number one item is usually, “Ensure that the item is plugged into an electric outlet.” Here again, this must ...read more

     | 2,439 views

    All of us here will try to solve problems and face situations using our own strength, but the truth of it all is that if we do not allow the Holy Spirit to give us conviction and guide us, then we will fail.

    Like I said last week, we all live with a certain level of stress. Due to our responsibilities and obligations, on a daily basis we are pulled in different directions. And as we were able to determine, the weight of these things slowly begins to fall on our shoulders and that causes our faith to ...read more

    A few years ago, the power went out on the north side of town. I first noticed it when I saw that the traffic lights weren’t working but I didn’t think much about it until I tried to stop into CVS to pick up some batteries. One of the clerks met me at the door and explained: “I’m sorry we have no ...read more
