    Even There: The Invisible Hand Of God In Unlikely Places

    Contributed by Randy Bataanon on Dec 18, 2025
     | 149 views

    Life sometimes takes us into unexpected places — the mountaintop of success or the valley of failure, the dawn of change or the loneliness of distance. In those moments we often ask, “Lord, are You still here?”

    EVEN THERE: The Invisible Hand of God in Unlikely Places Text: Psalm 139:7–10 (NIV) “Where can I go from your Spirit? Where can I flee from your presence? If I go up to the heavens, you are there; if I make my bed in the depths, you are there. If I rise on the wings of the dawn, if I settle on the ...read more

    Joy Of Salvation

    Contributed by David Dunn on Sep 8, 2025
     | 289 views

    Revival is not about guilt trips, programs, or emotional hype — it is about seeing God afresh and rediscovering the joy of salvation. True revival happens when we move from obsessing over our failures to fixing our eyes on the God who forgives, restores, and renews.

    “Restore unto me the joy of Thy salvation, and uphold me with Thy free spirit.” Psalm 51:12 Introduction – Passion Misplaced The kingdom of God is not going to advance simply because our churches are full of people. No — the kingdom of God is going to advance when the people who are in our ...read more

     | 2,500 views

    In leadership, the FACE OFF that requires nerves and stamina to stand before another person is notably not always the best strategy for the people at all times as we see with King David and King Saul however, God used FACE OFF against Jezebel.

    FOR JESUS’ LOVE 11 Leadership Traits By Dr. Gale A. Ragan-Reid (August 19, 2017) “So when they had dined, Jesus saith to Simon Peter, Simon, son of Jonas, lovest thou me more than these? He saith unto him, Yea, Lord; thou knowest that I love thee. He saith unto him, Feed my lambs. ...read more

    No Mediocrity Allowed Here

    Contributed by W Pat Cunningham on Feb 19, 2025
     | 425 views

    Did the Son of God, Jesus Christ, Lord and God and Creator of the Universe, put aside His transcendent glory and empty Himself, coming down all the way to assume our weak human nature so that we could “get by”?

    Seventh Sunday in Course 2025 Unless you have a pretty strong grounding in what we used to call “Bible History,” today’s first reading could leave you a little blindsided, that is until you heard the Gospel. King Saul, first king of the Israelite kingdom, had taken three thousand of his best ...read more

     | 1,942 views

    How do we know the will of God for our lives? What happens when one submits to the will of God? There are wonderful examples of people in the bible who totally surrendered their will to God, and read on to know the outcome of their decisions.

    Mary submitted to the will of God We read in Luke 1:38, Then Mary said, "Behold the maidservant of the Lord! May it be to me according to your word." And the angel departed from her. (EMTV) The characteristic of Mary that makes her so unique and special, was the fact that though she ...read more

    Palace Or The Pasture

    based on 8 ratings
     | 20,915 views

    what made David who he was, was not developed in the fanfare of the palace, but in the isolation of a pasture... long before he played for Saul, he played for God. Before defeating the giant, he practiced on trees, targets, bears and lions.

    Palace or the Pasture 1 Samuel 16:11 KJV [11] And Samuel said unto Jesse, Are here all thy children? And he said, There remaineth yet the youngest, and, behold, he keepeth the sheep.

     | 9,348 views

    God's people got into trouble because of compromise. Nahash (Snake) of Ammon planned to gouge out their right eyes, but Saul, strengthened by righteous anger and the Spirit defeated him. We should get mad too!

    - David went through a great deal in the hands of Saul and his enemies - It took almost 25 years to become the king of Israel since his anointing when he was just 13 years old (1 Sam 16)

    How To Be A Servant After God’s Own Heart Series

    Contributed by Jeff Strite on Jan 10, 2026

     | 2,069 views

    Why was David a man after God's own heart... but Saul wasn't? And what can that tell me about how I can be a man after God's own heart?

    I never thought about it before, but our culture talks a lot about our HEARTS. For example: If we want to have an intimate and personal talk with someone, we say that we want to have a “heart-to-heart”. If we’ve had a really good day, we might say that we are feeling “Lighthearted.” If we know ...read more

     | 6,631 views

    We often have a tendency to mask our failure to love others by referring to it as a “complex issue”. It’s not true. Jesus shows us how utterly simple the issue actually is.

    “It’s A LONG STORY; A COMPLEX ISSUE; A GRAY AREA”. You have heard statements like this haven’t you? Perhaps you used them yourself. Phrases like this are often used as a way to bring an end to a discussion. More often then not, those who say them are trying to bring an end to a ...read more
