    Jacob's Ladder Series

    Contributed by Brad Beaman on Apr 13, 2022

    Jacob the selfish man, whose life without God led him to desperation, reached a point where he needed the Lord. Often that is when God breaks through to a person. God spoke to Jacob through a dream. We call that dream, Jacob’s ladder.

    As believers in Jesus Christ, we are called to be different. This difference can be seen very distinctly when we have a proper attitude in our giving to God. A generous spirit in giving is stark contrast in a selfish me first world. Jacob has an experience with God and he is changed. His name ...read more

One day the lion being filled with pride decided to make sure all the others knew it. He was so confident that he by-passed the smaller animals and went straight to the ...read more

    Humility is disdained by this world but the Kingdom of God and the citizens of Heaven are those who are contrite and humble. Sometimes we need to examine ourselves to see if we are prideful or humble. Hopefully this sermon helps us with that examination.

    Luke 14:1-11 (read from the Bible and have the congregation follow along) Luke 14:11 NIV “All those who exalt themselves will be humbled, and those who humble themselves will be exalted.” Humility … humility in relationship to God comes from knowing that God is God and we are ...read more

    This message is for believers who still want to live their life according to their desires and old habits. This message helps believers understand Christian growth through eight callings toward achieving holiness through Christ.

    Many Christians ask Christ into their life, often not knowing what they just have done, or what to do afterwards, other than just “go to church”. Eventually, one will become tired of that…they want to experience the “new life” and “faith” that they hear preached about, but don’t know where to ...read more
