    based on 173 ratings
     | 45,729 views

    Facebook friends really aren’t friends, they’re casual acquaintances on the internet. But real friendship is a powerful thing that Jesus not only gave us, but taught us to use for His kingdom. What does Friendship mean to Jesus and to us?

    OPEN: I read about a woman who telephoned a friend and asked how she was feeling, "Terrible," came the reply over the wire, "my head’s splitting and my back and legs are killing me. The house is a mess, and the kids are simply driving me crazy." Very sympathetically the caller said, ...read more

     | 2,084 views

    Evil is like a series of bombs scattered around our lives. If we are to diffuse them, it helps to understand them.

    Evil On All Sides! (Proverbs 29:5-7) 1. Do you ever feel like you are surrounded by idiots? One web site collected stories… I was signing the receipt for my credit card purchase when the clerk noticed that I had never signed my name on the back of the credit card. She informed me ...read more

    One blind beggar refused to stay silent. His desperate cry stopped Jesus on a crowded road. Your persistence matters. Your voice reaches heaven. Shout louder when the world tells you to be quiet.

    7. THE CRY THAT STOPPED JESUS (BLIND BARTIMAEUS AND THE POWER OF DESPERATE FAITH) Introduction The dusty road from Jericho witnessed thousands of travellers. Beggars lined the streets daily.

    What Is Greatness?

    Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Oct 10, 2024
     | 830 views

    Jesus our God came to serve. And even to die, to give his life as a ransom for many! To die for us, to empty himself of divine power and authority and serve those in need. That is true greatness.

    I recall a meme I saw online, it had a picture of a janitorial supply cart and it said, "Called to ministry? This will be your first pulpit." Truer words were never spoken. My first five years in ministry I mopped a lot of floors, and believe me, I expect more floors in the future. ...read more

    THE BIBLE SAYS WE HAVE NEED OF PATIENCE. Are we demanding instant gratification and bypassing the role of patience. Why has patience become a dirty word in our society?

    In ancient Mediterranean world feuding marked the social landscape of the first-century. Being born into a family, a person inherited a set of friends and enemies. The scenario of continued/mutual presence of weeds/wheat left alone until harvest-time mentions the man’s enemy without explanation.

    Let’s not miss the heart of Christmas like those who missed it the first Christmas because they were too busy with their religion and traditions or looking for other things. And let’s not miss it because of the fear that has gripped our hearts over this current pandemic and the social unrest.

    The Heart of Christmas Last week we talked about the Spirit of Christmas, and I thought this week I’d share with you about what I’d like to call “The Heart of Christmas.” But before I do, I’d like to share with you a story.

     | 2,156 views

    I have heard many times recently through the media and social media that EVIL HAS PREVAILED. This is a terrible distortion that is breeding fear, worrying chaos, panic and commotion. God's truth will always prevail. God says: HAVE CONFIDENCE AND TRUST MY WORD.
