    The greatest miracle the church needs today is the miracle of growth. Even though only about one in five people in Canada attend church weekly, if our attitude is right with Jesus He will bless our service efforts and grow His chruch!

    Some who would try to convince us that there are contradictions in the Bible, point to Galatians, chapter six, to try to prove their point.

    • Verse 2 says, "Bear ye one another's burdens..." • Verse 5 says, "For every man shall bear his own burden." They err because they do not realize Paul was speaking of two different things. Verse 5 refers to people who, like soldiers, must bear their own ...read more

    Faithful To The Finish: Moses’ Journey With God PRO Sermon

    based on 3 ratings
     | 155 views

    Trust God’s promises and choose obedience over comfort, even when fulfillment seems distant, knowing faithfulness is never wasted and Christ is our ultimate hope.

    Some stories are best told at the edge of a vista. You climb a hill, the wind lifts your hair, and the horizon stretches like a promise you can almost touch. That’s where we meet Moses today—high on Nebo, heart full, eyes clear. He can see the land he longed for. He just can’t step into it. Have ...read more

     | 31,280 views

    In our relationship with Christ and our fellow believers, God has given us a call to demonstrate our love to both by serving one another. Service is love in action. Service ought to be a natural product of the Christian life. Service is selflessness.
