My Daddy Keeps His Promises Series

Contributed by K. Simms on Jan 6, 2010

How can we allow ourselves to move under the anointing of God and yet not be transformed by His Spirit? The question is not “how can we allow such a devastating and detestable act to occur”; the question goes out “why do we allow it to happen”?

My Daddy Keeps His Promises Exodus 34:29-35 The one thing that church folk often miss in their visitation to the sanctuary on the Sabbath is seeing the presence of God. How do we know this? Well all you have to do is look upon the faces of the men and women who claim that they have been to the ...read more

Davids Big Flaw

Contributed by Art Campbell on Sep 5, 2007

David was a successful man - a warrior, poet and king. Yet he had one major flaw that was almost his undoing - his children. This message contrasts David’s great success with his great heartache.

One of my favourite Bible heroes is King David. I’m sure you’re all familiar with the story of David and Goliath, the boy who bested a giant. But there’s a lot more to David’s life than this story. In many ways he’s the kind of man that many of us guys would like to be. David was marked out for ...read more

Contributed by Jyoti Banerjee on Nov 27, 2006

Testing and temptation: Jesus’s encounter with the Devil was a shadow of the cross in the wilderness.

We just heard the reading from Matthew 4. When Matthew wrote his book, he had no idea that there was going to be a chapter break right at that point of his book.
