    As we journey through life, we inevitably encounter moments of pain, heartbreak, and struggles. Yet, what if these experiences, far from being signs of God's absence, are actually evidence of His deep presence and transformative power, that can lead us to a brighter future.

    SCRIPTURAL REFERENCES (1 Peter 4:12-13) [12] Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you: [13] But rejoice, inasmuch as ye are partakers of Christ's ...read more

    When God asked Jeremiah the question, “If you can't run with men, how will you run with horses?” Is he defining purpose behind the trials of life are we in training for bigger things?

     | 369 views

    The Christian life demands that we endure God's tests to receive the crown of life, while simultaneously taking full responsibility for the internal temptations that, if unchecked, arise from our own desires and lead to spiritual death.

    Introduction: The Finish Line Many of us know the feeling of a great test. Perhaps it was a final exam in university that determined your grade for the entire semester. Maybe it was a major project or presentation at work, with your career on the line. Or maybe it was a physical challenge, like ...read more

    As believers, we are encouraged to remain steadfast and committed in our faith through every trial and storm that life may bring. We are anchored by Jesus, our great hope, salvation, and savior.

    Today, we're gonna talk about anchors: those big, heavy things that keep ships from drifting away. We're gonna see how anchors can teach us something important about our faith and our relationship with Jesus. Our main verse for today is Hebrews 6:19, which says: "We have this hope as an anchor for ...read more

    What is it that makes these verses so forceful? To me it is the courageous way in which Habakkuk faces possible calamities & triumphs over them through knowledge & faith in his Savior. Habakkuk has learned the lesson of faith taught in 2:4

    Habakkuk 3:16-17 THE PEACE OF HABAKKUK’S FAITH [Psalms 18:18-33] The last section of this glorious chapter contains some of the most moving verses in all the Bible. On one occasion it was used by Benjamin Franklin, who was not a Christian, to confound some of the sophisticated, cultured ...read more

    Isaiah 57:1 NIV The righteous perish, and no one ponders it in his heart; devout men are taken away, and no one understands that the righteous are taken away to be spared from evil.

    John’s Question

     | 10,429 views

    Everybody wants to be a winner and be on the winning team. John the baptizer was afraid that he was mistaken about Jesus because he saw him headed toward a cross. We are still a lot like John. Following Jesus is often not about winning.

    It’s hard to be sure when you are in pain It’s easy to be confident when things are going well – when you are young, strong – LeBron James for instance, went on TV and had a whole show just to say that he was going to the Miami Heat. Look at me, look how confident I am. This is going to be great. ...read more

    How often do we lament the fact that those who live EVIL lives seem to be getting away with things and those of us living FOR Christ seem to be getting the short end of the stick? Doesn't it make you angry... I know I don't like it, but God has a plan and

    Do you feel insignificant in your service to God? You may be more powerful than you thought. Or do you feel pretty secure? You may be more in need and weak than you thought. Take some advice from Philadelphia and Laodicea.

    Even as the Philadelphian church doesn’t receive even one rebuke - the church at Laodicea receives not one commendation - the contrast couldn’t be more stark - and that’s not the only contrast we’ll see as we compare these two churches. -The church at Philadelphia was small in appearance but ...read more
