Jesus In The Boat Of Your Life

Contributed by Tesh Njokanma on Aug 16, 2022

This sermon highlights the benefits of having Jesus, the Captain of our Salvation sail with us as we go through different situations and seasons of life.

Jesus is always looking for a ‘boat’ – a heart, a life, a ministry, a business, a family, a church, a nation to enter into. When Jesus got into Peter’s boat, Peter didn’t shut or shove Jesus out of his boat, he allowed Him in. Allowing Jesus into his boat, gave Peter a life-changing encounter with ...read more

A Prayer For Spirit Enlightenment (Ephesians 1:15-23) Series

Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Sep 3, 2025

"do You Love Me More Than These?"

Contributed by Jeff Taylor on Feb 15, 2025

With Valentine's Day now passed, we need to examine our hearts and ask the same question Jesus asked Peter after His resurrection, "Do you love Me more than these?"

John chapter 21 beginning in verse one is where I want to focus today. On the heels of Valentine's Day, I believe it is important to reflect on the one question that the Lord would ask all of us today. "Do you love Me?" Now, at first, we are quick to respond, "YES, LORD! I DO ...read more
