    Contributed by Christian Cheong on May 1, 2018
     | 7,506 views

    God may not be prominent in the proceedings but He is present and sovereignly in control. God works out His purpose through people and fulfils His will.

    When we read the events of the last few chapters in II Kings, we did not see God appearing or saying much. But we know that He is the primary Actor. • He might not be prominent but He is present, and working behind the scenes even when we don’t see Him much. • We see that again in 2 Kings 11. ...read more

    Contributed by Ed Vasicek on May 17, 2021
     | 3,290 views

    Today’s sermon is about a childless couple unexpectedly blessed with a grape-less son who ends up being a womanizing hothead hippie, marries the enemy, has a hobby of setting fox’ tails on fire, gets put in prison just because he gets a haircut, and dies of fallen arches. This is how it happened.

    A Self-centered Hothead Meets God’s Providence (Judges 13-16) Some people think that God using someone means God endorsing someone. God uses two types of people: 1. Those He uses because of their close walk with Him. 2 Timothy 2:21, “Therefore, if anyone cleanses himself from what is ...read more
