    In everything that we say or do, does God have the priority, or do we give God the same emphasis as we do the spare tire? (Only when needed!)

    Give God First Place Matthew 6:25-34. Too many people are seeking first the kingdom of pleasure and possessions.

The Gospel of Matthew tells us the story of the Magi, this group of astronomers from the East who follow a new star, and seek to find who the star belongs too. The Magi know that this star is not just any star, they know it is significant beyond anything they ...read more

    Hide And Seek: When God Protects

    Contributed by David Dunn on Nov 22, 2025
     | 106 views

    A Kuwait war testimony anchored in Psalm 18, showing how God protects, hides, guides, and delivers His children through overwhelming danger and impossible odds.

You can memorize it in the light, you can preach it in comfort, but you can only feel it—really feel it—when life leaves you nowhere to stand but in the sheltering shadow of God ...read more

    Today I want to look at the different viewpoints of the last supper from the 4 gospels. Traditionally only 3 of the gospels are credited with recognizing the last supper, Matthew, Mark and Luke. Let’s look at those: Matthew 26:20-30 20When it was evening, Jesus sat down at the table with the ...read more
