     | 9,015 views

    Fear will steal your joy and keep you from doing all that God wants you to do. So, what are we supposed to do with our fear? Let it Go!

    Fear will be your enemy. And that statement seems to set the tone very early in the movie. If there seems to be one overriding emotion in the movie “Frozen” it is fear. The King and Queen are fearful for their daughters and so the girls are separated and grow up alone. Elsa is ...read more

    Everybody struggles with self-control. We all wish we had more of it.

    INTRODUCTION Love is the first flavor of the fruit of the Spirit and today we come to the last, self-control. I think these two virtues are placed first and last because love is the primary fruit and drives the rest, and self-control is the virtue that holds them all together.

    Man is always quick to forget that he does not have the supreme authority over himself. There is a God outside of man who rules over the affair of man.

    Regardless of genealogy or demography, every human shares something in common and it is the fact that we all came from dust and to dust shall we all return. Everyone came empty and shall someday return empty. Class notwithstanding, all men are same and nothing (Psalm 62:9). Psalm 103:15-16 also ...read more

    Ministry work should be done by every Christian not just for pastors and church leaders. In this message, we will learn from the life of Deborah three things that can help us as we minister to God, to the Christians and to the unbelievers.

    Many of us think of ministry as the work done by pastors, by missionaries, by Christian Conference speakers or evangelists.
