    When we walk in the sin of this world we become; devastated, dry, barren, desolate void of life. What we need is a spiritual down pour of the presence of God’s blessings in our life.

    Life is complex but Jesus narrows all of our Christianity down to one needful thing. True worship is like oil in the lantern -you can burn without out it but you cannot sustain the fire.

    Needful Things Luke 10:38-42 Text: Verse 42 This chapter, like every other chapter in the life of the Lord Jesus, is overflowing with activity. Everywhere He went there where multitudes of people calling for His attention. His ministry was teeming with activity. He had to stay up into the wee ...read more

    Our community is filled with people who, once were regular fixtures down at the local church. Something was said…an impression was given…grace was denied…and they walked away.
