    Step Three: Made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of God, as we understood Him.., is how it reads but what it means is: “If anyone wishes to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow Me.”

    I love the smells and sounds of spring: spring rain, cut grass and people rooting for or playing one of the many spring summer sports. However, I also remember the pain of one fateful night. You see, I loved to play softball. It was always a blast but I’m competitive. On this night, I tried to ...read more

    I want to take a look at an individual who was maxed-out emotionally. He was running on empty and had no margin left in his life. After he took it to the limit, God intervened, and in the process, taught him a few things.

    Running on Empty Some of you know that I like to work out. I enjoy running, bike riding and the stair stepper. When we lived in Rockford, I went to the Fitness Center one day and decided to try out the treadmill. It didn’t look all that difficult so I jumped on and started walking. After a few ...read more

     | 5,278 views

    Risk taking at times needs to be bold and calculated. Other times require spontaneity. Risk taking is taking on something that causes fear and has the possibility of failure. Risk taking is an essential ingredient in ministry in the Kingdom of God. Most B

    No force can withstand the power we believe in, weather it be governments or demonic powers, we are much powerful than they are. Christ is our victory.

    If you study the book of Hebrews chapter 11, it lists accounts of men and women, who through faith subdued Kingdoms. They dominated their time in history, God himself testified concerning them and said; "the world was not worthy of them" (Hebrews 11:38). These ones functioned in the earth with ...read more

    Why Did God Take 6 Days To Make Everything? Gen. 1:1, 2:1-3

    Contributed by Luke Vasicek on Aug 3, 2025
     | 147 views

    God exists, He made everything in 6 literal days, and he utilized patterns to do so. He utilized patterns because He delights in them. Our life is happier and easier if we embrace His patterns in our daily life.

    Why did God Take 6 Days to Make Everything? Gen. 1:1, 2:1-3 1. God Made _Everything_ (1:1) A. God Exists, and it’s _Clear_. Honestly, it’s rather obvious. “It is so obvious, so salient, so clear that God exists, that the Bible assumes it in Genesis 1:1. To deny this basic tenet of life is to ...read more

     | 817 views

    Faith is a powerful spiritual force that enables believers to experience supernatural breakthroughs. Jesus taught that even faith as small as a mustard seed can move mountains.

    God desires to meet with us. But, God will never force God’s self upon us. We must be willing to make meeting with God a priority.

    Revenge And Forgiveness Series

    based on 11 ratings
     | 6,241 views

    The desire to take revenge is not necessarily sinful, but we must not take our own revenge. Government may do so, but if it fails, ultimately God will take revenge.

    Forgiveness is Conditional, Part 3: When The Offender Won’t Repent Thus far in our series, we have tried to answer the following questions: (1) Do I have to forgive someone who has not repented? The answer I gave was, "no." God does not forgive those who will not repent, and He is our ...read more
