     | 2,624 views

    Only when we are united in heart, mind and purpose will the people around us know and believe in Jesus. This sermon will teach us what we should do to make this a possibility.

    We read in Acts 4:32, “The whole congregation of believers was united as one — one heart, one mind!” (MSG) The testimony about the early church was that though they were numerous, they were all with one heart and one mind. When we hear such a declaration, probably the question that arises is, ‘How ...read more

    An insiders look at our commandment to restore backslidden believers.

As humans we often make mistakes and later regret them. I recall a recent article in the St. Petersburg ...read more

    Purpose, Please Stand Up

    Contributed by David Dunn on Nov 12, 2025
     | 76 views

    Purpose rises when God’s word defines us, God’s anointing empowers us, and we step into the valley knowing the battle belongs to the Lord.

    There are moments in Scripture when God doesn’t whisper purpose—He shakes it into the bones of His people. And one of those moments erupts in 1 Samuel 17 when a young shepherd boy, overlooked by his family and underestimated by everyone else, stands on a battlefield and shouts a question that ...read more
