Called To Faithfulness Series

Contributed by Mark Aarssen on Oct 16, 2016

Interactive games and technology are drawing people into and alternative reality, one that cannot be trusted. They're putting blind faith into these distractions instead of finding reasons to put faith in God.

Called to Faithfulness Hebrews 11:1-6 NKJV Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. 2 For by it the elders obtained a good testimony. 3 By faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that the things which are seen were not made ...read more

A Call To Patience.

Contributed by Christopher Holdsworth on Oct 29, 2016

How long, Lord?

A CALL TO PATIENCE. James 5:7-10. ‘Patience is a virtue,’ suggests the old adage. Yet when we pray for more patience what do we get? We get more affliction!

The Call To Discipleship Series

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Jun 15, 2016

Every believer is called to be a disciple of Christ. It is up to us individually to heed the call to follow the Lord as His disciples.

The Call to Discipleship Matthew 4:19 As much as it hurts to admit, I truly believe the church has failed miserably in one vital area of ministry. Throughout the 80’s and 90’s there was a concerted effort to reach unbelievers with the Gospel, and the church rose to the call to ...read more

The Call: Holiness

Contributed by John Ong on Nov 22, 2017

Regardless of how dirty you’ve been in the past, God’s cleansing power cleanse you and makes you like new. Now that you know this, do not let the devil and his lies lead you away from the great plan that God has for you.

And as Christians, God’s call for us in 1 Peter 1:16 is to “be holy for I am holy” but right now what’s happening is the opposite. Morality is on a decline– we have accepted “complicated” as a normal status, ...read more
