     | 26,244 views

    When we accept Jesus as Lord there is an excitement. We want to save the world. But over time the world beats so many of us into silence. This message is about how the Apostle Paul refused to let circumstances keep him from finishing his race.

    The book of Philippians – The Back Story Roman Prison: The Tullianum (Keep) When we read scripture sometimes knowing the circumstances from which they were written can paint what we read in a totally different light. Paul’s letter to the Philippians is an excellent example of this. It’s common ...read more

    Contributed by Dean Courtier on Dec 1, 2025
    based on 1 rating
     | 1,432 views

    Advent is the season where the Church intentionally remembers that Christ came into a violent, divided, restless world as the Prince of Peace. Every generation searches for peace — world peace, inner peace, peace of mind — yet peace remains elusive.

    Go! And Live in the Peace of Christ (Advent Peace) Romans 5:1 (NLT): “Therefore, since we have been made right in God’s sight by faith, we have peace with God because of what Jesus Christ our Lord has done for us.” Psalm 119:165 (NLT): “Those who love your instructions have great peace and do not ...read more

    It doesn't matter whether we finish first in this race, but it does matter that we "finish pretty." Do you know what that means and what it takes to "look good" when we cross the finish line?

     | 17,436 views

    Do we trust God enough to honor and obey those in authority over us? It's easy to do that when they're good leaders... but what about when they're driven by selfishness and love of power?
