    Introduction When you think of a great church, what comes to mind? We live in a day in which there is a lot of confusion over this question. Many churches are a reflection of our society which has become satiated with entertainment. Neil Postman, in his profound book titled, Amusing Ourselves ...read more

     | 1,957 views

And he journeyed on from the Negeb as far as Bethel to the place where his tent had been at the beginning, between Bethel and ...read more

    Even during our time here on earth, we can already expect a reward from the Great Rewarder. So, what kind of reward can He give now?

     | 1,127 views

    At Christ’s enthronement a transfer of authority took place. What Adam lost through disobedience – Christ regained through obedience! However, even though Satan is no longer “the ruler of this world,” he isn’t going to give it up without a fight and war erupts in heaven.

    Who you FOLLOW, and who LISTEN TO, will determine where you go… and where you end up. Psalm 1 is telling us to listen to God and trust Him... because the alternative is listening to the wicked, sinful and scoffers of this world.

    In the book of Numbers (13th chapter) we’re told that Moses - after leading Israel out of captivity in Egypt - had finally brought the people to edge of the Promised Land. And before they go it, God tells Moses to send 12 spies into the promised land. So they select 12 men to slip into Canaan, ...read more

    What is the difference between God’s wrath and God’s discipline? We look into tribulation, persecution and discipline, and look at 4 reasons Christians can have difficulties. Remember this – godly living produces persecution. Trees standing against the wind have the strongest trunks.
