All Things Work Together For Good

Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on Feb 14, 2022

The Fear Of The Lord

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 21, 2022

The Call To Rebuild

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Aug 19, 2021

God is calling the church to rebuild after the Corona Virus pandemic lock-downs. But amidst the challenges, it takes uncommon trust and surrender to tackle what God is asking. This message can be re-worked for a building program.

We’re tired of striving and struggling, and we’re tired of having to rebuild. But rebuilding is necessary in order ...read more
