     | 7,756 views

    TEXT: Proverbs 18:21 Our Words can bless, encourage, strengthen someone, and can bring the power of God on the scene. But words can also hurt, destroy, kill someone’s reputation, curse and damage people... NKJV reads, “Death and life are in the power

    Resurrection Sunday is the day when everything changed. The stone was rolled away. The tomb was empty. Death was defeated. And the risen Saviour stands victorious!

    Go! And Proclaim the Risen Christ- 1 Corinthians 15:1, 3-4 Introduction Christ is risen! He is risen indeed!

    When The Buck Stops With You--Deciding About Jesus Series

    Contributed by James Wallace on Mar 23, 2022
     | 1,973 views

    The issue of principles for spiritual decision-making can make or break a life; make or break a destiny. Pontius Pilate faced a critical decision about Jesus. His mistakes provide wisdom when the buck stops with us.

    We come to the fateful moment of decision for the Lord Jesus Christ, the God-Man, in his earthly sojourn—that moment when the judges among men are about to finally decide the fate of the One who will ultimately be their Judge for eternity. And we know, of course, it is going to be a fatal ...read more

    When Prayer Goes Unanswered Series

    Contributed by Greg Hanson on Feb 19, 2007

     | 9,270 views

    Why doesn’t God answer all our prayers? And when he doesn’t, what should our response be? Part 4 of a series inspired by Philip Yancey’s book "Disappointment with God."

    Back when I was a student at Bethany Bible College in Sussex, NB, I lived in one of the dormitories. They’ve since renovated the dorm, but when I was there we had two pay phones in the dorm… one on the second floor, and one on the third. The one on the third floor worked fine, but the one on the ...read more

    Heaps Of Burning Coals

    Contributed by Tammy Garrison on Aug 12, 2002
    based on 41 ratings
     | 3,862 views

    This continues a series on the book of Romans. An extreme gift of grace calls for an extreme response. Paul calls us to love our enemies. Sometimes God’s grace calls us to places we’d rather not go.

    This summer we have been traveling the Roman Road Of Salvation with Paul. We began by hearing that there is nothing we can do to earn God’s grace. We will never merit the love God has for us. No matter how good we are, or how bad we can be, God still loves us. Our wrong doings separates us from ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 17,494 views

    It was necessary that the widow abandon her last resources by faith before the Living God would assume full responsibility and full control over her situation. The same is true of us. We must surrender all to gain Jesus!

    The question asked of God by Cain in Genesis was, "Am I my brother's keeper?" The unstated answer was yes. Apostasy is not just a theological departure, but a state of being promoted by our thinking and actions. Our responsibility is to identify it and re

    We live in a day where everyone wants to know about the future. People will consult their horoscope, read tea leaves or whatever it takes to uncover the future. The truth is we are better off not knowing. Actually we must make sure we know the one who

    Those Gentiles!

    Contributed by Greg Nance on Jul 27, 2013
     | 3,985 views

    We Gentiles have been granted repentance by God. This gift is of greater worth than anything this world has to offer. The early church was not excited to open the door of faith to us. What then shall be our response to God's gift of grace?

    What to do with those Gentiles!? Acts 11 records when the doors of the church swung wide open to every nation and Peter was called on the carpet for taking the first steps. We look at this today and wonder how they could have missed it. Did not Jesus himself commission them to go into all the ...read more

    Joel. God Wants To Give His Mercy And Grace, And To Pour Out His Love On All People. Series

    Contributed by Andrew Moffatt on Nov 15, 2025
     | 211 views

    Nothing like a plague of Biblical proportions to give a nation a bit of a hurry up about returning to God. In Joel's day it was locusts, they had eaten all there was and it was a heads up that; The Day of The Lord was coming. That, and you can't eat what doesn't exist.

    Joel. God wants to give his mercy and grace, and to pour out his love on all people. The book of Joel, the third of our minor prophets is a short read. This book of three chapters, is about God confronting and defeating evil. The name Joel while being a short name contains a lot of meaning; ...read more

     | 19,173 views

    Everyday, the Lord is inviting us to draw closer and have fellowship with Him. But many times, we are too busy that we tend to ignore His invitation for us. In this message, we will learn three important responses from the life of Moses.

    THE LORD'S INVITATION TO COME UP INTRODUCTION: We will continue our study on the Book of Exodus. We are now in chapter 24 when the elders of Israel saw God and had a time of great fellowship with Him. It all started with the invitation of the Lord to Moses telling them to come up together with ...read more

    This passage is Jesus’answers to the common attitude, “What I do is my own business,” the idea that we are not responsible to anyone else, and no one else has the right to make demands or claims upon us with regard to our behavior.

    Those words have become the classic example of a final challenge designed to inspire a team as they head into the big game. That’s the kind of scene you need to picture as we read the last words of the last book before the Book of Revelation.

    A Peep Into The Future

    based on 16 ratings
     | 11,767 views

    The book of Micah is well worth reading. It’s a book relevant to us today, and Micah offers a peep into the future when God will bring peace, disputes between nations will be settled. They will no longer prepare for war but will worship the one true God.

    When you are reading a book do you always start at the beginning? Do you always, without fail, read the book without flicking forward a few pages? Do you ever get so excited that you just can’t resist having a look at the last page? I have to confess that I often flick ahead and then return to ...read more
