    It's a common misconception that the leaders of a congregation are always the ones with the strongest faith. This isn't necessarily true. This sermon is a lesson for the faithful, encouraging them to remain steadfast in their beliefs.

    Many people believe that the leaders of a congregation are the ones with the strongest faith. However, this is not always the case. In reality, there are times when those in leadership positions may actually have weak faith. This is a lesson for all believers to acknowledge their own faith ...read more

    Today, I want to talk about why we need revival as individuals and as a church. Revival is like a breath of fresh air that brings new life to our faith.

    This sermon explores the concept of self-control, a fruit of the Spirit. It provides a roadmap to gaining more self-control, starting with acknowledging our problems, leaving the past behind, mastering our emotions, believing in our capacity for change, avoiding temptation, and relying on Christ's power.

    This sermon is about self-control, which is one of the fruits of the Spirit. Self-control is important because many of our problems stem from a lack of it. We often wonder why we can't lose weight, keep our house clean, or break bad habits. The answer is that we lack self-control. Our biggest ...read more

    Every Christian possesses the fruit of the Holy Spirit; we have to nourish them so they grow. These fruits are positive characteristics; gifts; we cannot manufacture them, and certainly cannot witness without displaying them.

These fruit are positive characteristics and gifts that we cannot manufacture on our own. They are essential for us to ...read more

    The sermon introduction discusses the concept of 'best days' in one's life, using personal examples, and sets the stage for a discussion on the return of the King and Earth's best days according to the scripture Revelation 19:1-20:10.

    One of my best days was the day my wife said yes to my marriage proposal. Another was the day when my son was born, another when my daughter was born.
