    What is the first voice you hear each day? For many it is the voice of the news, the voice of social media, the voice of anxiety, the voice of fear - But for the follower of Jesus Christ, the first voice we need to hear is the voice of God through His Word.

     | 29,277 views

    Life is filled with obstacles. Israel encountered the obstacle of a flooded river. Here in Joshua, there were three directives given to Israel before the crossing of the Jordan. I believe that there is application value in these directives for us as we

    OBSTACLES ON THE WAY Joshua 3:15-17 Obstacles. The dictionary defines obstacles as “something that stands in the way or opposes”. Something that is between where you are, and where you want to go. Life is filled with obstacles. Some of them will be small, such as maybe a road block on the way ...read more

     | 6,968 views

    Some form of the word “Seek” is used in the Bible over 150 times, therefore when we encounter a verse that clearly states we are to “seek first” something, that should clearly get our attention.

    First Things First Introduction Matthew 6:33 But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. The bible in different ways tells us what we need to seek for and what we should not seek. Examples – Leviticus 19:31 “‘Do not turn to mediums or seek ...read more

    God specializes in impossible things. When we encounter those things over which we have no control, who better to turn to than the God of impossibilities, because nothing is too impossible for God.

    Jeremiah 32:17, 27; Luke 1:37; 18:27 Robert Schuller in his book, Move Ahead with Possibility Thinking begins the book with these questions: Are you limping when you could be walking strong; whimpering when you could be whistling; crying when you could be laughing?

    based on 30 ratings
     | 3,825 views

    God is able to use the mystery that suffering often brings. Yet, some people quickly reach the end of their rope when they encounter adversities. The Lord’s grace is sufficient for any weakness, confusion or problem.

    "Why is There So Much Suffering in the World?" John 9:1-9:38 "It was neither that this man sinned or his parents, but in order that the works of God might be displayed in him." (John 9:4) Many people fail to understand God’s greater purposes for physical suffering. Instead of allowing the ...read more

    God just might give you a star to capture your attention and to guide you. And if you follow that star, everything just might change. An intimate encounter with Jesus has a way of doing that to people.

    I love the story of the magi. There was a time when the magi lived far away from Jesus. They were given a special star to capture their attention and to guide them. They followed the star, and it changed everything. An intimate encounter with Jesus has a way of doing that to people. I love the ...read more

    Jesus reminds us that one of the guaranteed things about being a Christian is that we will encounter troubles. This sermon helps us view troubles from God’s perspective and that we should not be afraid of it.

    When you sense difficulties how do you react? When you sense problems what is your response? Recently I saw some hilarious videos of how people respond when they are in trouble In one video a man was carrying a box of photocopier paper when some jumped out from the behind corner and scared him….he ...read more
