    Encouragement To Engage In Ministry

    based on 1 rating
     | 4,305 views

    It would be a tragedy for believers to possess biblical knowledge and spiritual giftedness, and yet never use that knowledge and giftedness for the advancement of the Kingdom. Many churches are stagnant and dead spiritually because they focus upon the wrong things.

    Encouragement to Engage in Ministry Ephesians 3: 14-19 Some of you are probably like me when it comes to technology. I am certainly not an expert in the field of computers and programming. I am unfamiliar with all that goes into writing code, software, and the development of apps on my phone. ...read more

    Our giving, when in the right attitude brings us closer to God. We worship when we give our gifts to God.

    God desires us to give our best. This is called giving the first fruits. This means the first agricultural produce of a season, especially when given as an offering to God. It applies to more than agriculture but giving our first and best to God. The idea that God wants us to give Him our best ...read more

    Gethsemane is a beautiful garden of olive trees. This beautiful garden of olive trees called Gethsemane means oil press. It's the location of where Jesus was in such agony it was, “crushing the life out of him.”

    At the age of 27 George Whitefield had already preached to enormous crowds in America, England, Scotland and Wales.

    Thankful Worship

    Contributed by Ajai Prakash on Apr 25, 2024
     | 458 views

    Whenever we come into God's presence, we must come with thanksgiving. The Lord is to be praised; we do not want matter, it was well if we did not want a heart.

    Opening illustration: As President Washington proclaimed the 26th of November 1789 to be a day of thanksgiving. The last paragraph reads as follows: "And also that we may then unite in most humbly offering our prayers and supplications to the great Lord and Ruler of Nations and beseech Him to ...read more

    Faith Anchored In Hope

    Contributed by David Dunn on Sep 7, 2025
     | 103 views

    This message explores faith when life is not well — when God seems silent, unfeeling, or even contradictory. Through the lives of Job, Moses, and Abraham, we discover that true faith is not the absence of doubt but the choice to trust God in spite of doubt.

    Some of us are old enough to remember this little ditty from the 1950s: “Next time you’re found with your chin on the ground… there’s a lot to be learned, just look around. What makes that little old ant think he’ll move that rubber tree plant? Anyone knows an ant can’t… but he’s got high ...read more
