    God Will Carry You

    Contributed by Christian Cheong on Mar 11, 2014
     | 20,242 views

    Paul says he can do everything through Christ who gives him strength. He understands the sufficiency, sphere and the source of God's strength.

    “I can do everything through him who gives me strength.” (Phil 4:13) • This is a verse we all love. We’ve seen it on bookmarks, cups, t-shirts, bumper stickers… It is a line we all like because it is very positive. • In fact, some people take this verse out of ...read more

    Open Your Heart To The Holy Spirit

    Contributed by Christian Cheong on Jul 27, 2012
    based on 4 ratings
     | 12,543 views

    It is more than education we need, we need the illumination of the Spirit. It is more than planning we need, but the leading of the Spirit. It is more than praying we need, but listening to the Holy Spirit.

    Christianity is hopeless without the Holy Spirit. He is God’s agent on earth today. • Without Him, there is a disconnection with God; the line is cut off. We won’t fully understand God’s will. • The Holy Spirit reveals the will of God. He reminds us of the words of Jesus; he guides us into all ...read more

    Peace Through Contentment Series

    Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Jan 11, 2017
     | 11,452 views

    Although facing great adversity, Paul had learned to be content. The Lord had been faithful to provide the strength he needed to endure whatever trials or difficulties he faced. We too can learn contentment and receive strength for our trials.

    Peace through Contentment Philippians 4: 10-13 Our text today offers a compelling and intimate look within the heart of Paul. This letter to the Philippian church was penned from a Roman prison. Paul was bound, and unable to minister freely as he once did. The possibility of execution loomed each ...read more

    When we give our lives to Jesus, we are called to a new understanding concerning life.

    Why Are You So Fearful? Series

    Contributed by Doug Fannon on Nov 8, 2018
     | 8,897 views

    If God be for us, who can be against us? If God Is for us, then why do we fear the world? We will examine the Disciple's fearfulness on the occasion of Jesus calming the storm.

    Jesus asked the question, Why are you so fearful? That is a question many need to answer today. In spite of what they say, 90% of the chronic patients who see today's physicians have one common symptom. Their trouble did not start with cough or chest pain or hyperacidity. In 90% of the cases, ...read more

    The True Vine Series

    Contributed by Allan Quak on Apr 16, 2021
     | 5,927 views

    Jesus the True Vine is the Only source of spiritual life. For us to know if we are a true disciple or a fake disciple we need recognise the difference between the Father bringing us through a difficult pruning process, or the Father cutting us off.

    Message John 15:1 I Am The True Vine There are seven “I am” passages of Jesus … the last of which is found in John 15:1-6 (read) I suspect there are plenty of us who remember the “I am the vine; you are the branches” part. I wonder how many also remembered the “I am the vine, and my Father is ...read more

    Our identity is in Christ. Christianity is a lifestyle not a plaque we put on the wall. there are alot of people who claim they are Christians but their lives are not bearing fruit of it.

    Freedom in Christ Galatians 3:1-29 Prayer- Introduction- Where’s your identity? That is the question that I asked a group that got together recently. Is your identity a passport?

    Thorns And Grace (July 2012).

    Contributed by John Williams Iii on Aug 14, 2020
     | 6,993 views

    Perhaps one of the most intriguing passages of scripture is that of Paul's mention of the "thorn in his flesh." Paul expounded upon his metaphor of the thorn as he said that it was something that kept his pride in check.

    THORNS AND GRACE 2 Corinthians 12:1-10 I remember going barefoot as a ten year old kid, when I was living in Aiken as a preacher’s kid. As I was going barefoot, I wound up stepping on a board that had three nails in it. The pain got my attention and definitely ...read more

    Living In Lack In The Middle Of Abundance

    Contributed by Jeffrey Sims on Jul 4, 2025
     | 499 views

    As Christians, if we are called to live in the abundance of God’s provision, love, and grace, why are so many of us living in a mindset of lack—spiritually, emotionally, and even materially? Why do we say that we serve a God of abundance, and settle for scarcity?

    John 10:10 – “The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have life and have it abundantly.” Philippians 4:19 – “And my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.” Introduction: As Christians, if we are called to live in the ...read more

    Living In God

    Contributed by Alison Bucklin on Jul 14, 2025
     | 220 views

    Even the most noble and selfless kind of human love is inadequate to define God’s love. Because human love and divine love are different.

    When I was a little girl going to Sunday School, and used to come home with questions, my mother was in kind of a dilemma. You see, she didn’t believe in God. She thought there was a lot of good stuff in the Bible, as long as you left God out of it. “Do unto others as you would have them do unto ...read more

    Good morning, church family! Today, we're going to dive into a passage from the Gospel of Luke.
