Praises to the Lord for the many blessings he's given and that I've received. Truly I don't deserve such a prosperous life, but it has been given freely to me.

God Remembers Series

Contributed by Richard Tow on Oct 4, 2021

Miracles For Moses Series

Contributed by Jeff Strite on Oct 31, 2021

God gave Moses 3 miracles to convince the Israelites God had sent him. But these miracles seem (to me) to be fairly unimpressive - a little like "parlor tricks." Why would God ask Moses to use them to convince the Elders of Israel that God had sent him?

(Sing) “I believe for every drop of rain that falls, a flower grows. I believe that somewhere in the darkest night, a candle glows. I believe for everyone who goes astray, someone will come to show the way. I believe, I believe. I believe above the storm the smallest pray'r will still be heard. ...read more

Pentecost: Keep In Step With The Spirit

Contributed by Reuben Bredenhof on May 23, 2021

When children of God walk through this life, we should not be wandering aimlessly, getting tripped up by our desires, but God calls us to keep in step, to watch where we put our feet, and to follow the lead of the one who commands us: “Walk in the Spirit!”

When the Holy Spirit was first poured out on the church, that event was spectacular in every way, with a rushing wind, tongues of fire on the disciples’ heads, and foreign languages on their lips.
