    Parables are illustrations that compare something earthly with something that is spiritual.

    The PARABLE OF THE MUSTARD SEED is mentioned three times. We find it in: • Matthew 13:31-35 • Mark 4:30-32 • Luke 13:18 The Lord must have considered this parable to be important to allow it to be mentioned three different times in the Scriptures. We want to look at Matt. 13:31-35, we read, ...read more

    You can tell from the text of my sermon today I am going to preach about the tongue.

    Perhaps some are assuming the reason I am preaching on this subject is because some members in the church are mis-using their tongue in the church. But if you think this you are absolutely wrong!!! God as my witness as I stand in this pulpit before you and the God I love and serve…I AM ...read more

    Living for Jesus means seeing him as clearly as possible and longing to be as much like him as possible.

    Peter was not big on writing letters. He certainly couldn’t hold a candle to Paul, whose pen never seemed to stop, sending letters all over Asia, explaining, encouraging, correcting. But of course being under house arrest made letter writing the best way to keep in touch with all the churches Paul ...read more

    Grip the gospel daily—remember, receive, redirect, rely—and the Spirit will help you guard God’s good deposit.

    One of the typical characteristics of our children—maybe yours too—was that they enjoyed playing their music loud. Not just loud… LOUD.

    God is always doing new things in our lives, but we often miss them because we're too focused on the past. We need to let go of our past baggage and trust God for the future.

    Remember the Israelites? They were slaves in Egypt for over 400 years. But when God set them free, they kept looking back, wishing for their old lives. Sounds crazy, right? But we do the same thing. We get stuck on the past, even if it wasn't that great. God wants us to drop that heavy backpack of ...read more

    We all have some big dreams or desires. We have often heard people say my one desire is to see my children getting settled so that I may be peaceful, while others say my one desire is to own a jet, some others my one is to have a good job and so on. Similarly, we all have that one thing.

    We all have great desires to be fulfilled. There is none in this world who say that they do not have any desires. What has been declared in the Bible by the Psalmist King David is worth noting and learning. Let us look into those insights this day. Psalms 27:4, David the King said, "One thing ...read more
