Second only to the crucifixion and resurrection of Christ, this was the greatest day in history of the N. T. church. This may come as a bit of surprise to some of you, but did you know that this had happened once before?

His Annointing

Contributed by J. Yeargin on Sep 2, 2004

We believe in God’s Word for direction and instruction. The Apostle Paul said it so well in his letter to Timothy, “…I know Whom I have believed…”

I would like to ask the Lord this morning what He wants me to do to be an effective part of His plan. Personally, I can say I do not want things to become routine for us. I hope we all have come here for the same reasons. We are hungry for God. It is important that we study God’s Word closely. ...read more

E=mc2, but W.W.J.D.? The disciples, despite the presence of the Holy Spirit, were misunderstood. They were perceived, because of their exuberant behavior, as being loaded. Sauced. Drunk. How rare it is to experience real communication. The kind of communication where every word is ...read more
