Remember O Lord, Your Great Mercy (November 28, 2021)

Contributed by John Williams Iii on Dec 10, 2021

Isn’t Advent a time of expectation and preparation? Doesn’t Advent challenge us to make changes in our lives? ... Didn’t David write this Psalm expressing remorse as well as the hunger for righteousness that only God could give him? Do we have that yearning in common with David?

God's Plan To Bring You Heaven

Contributed by Rev. Timothy Porter on Dec 23, 2020

And we all can be saved in this same way, by coming to Christ, no matter who we are or what we have been like.” Romans 3:22 (TLB) The Bible says, “This Good News tells us how God makes ...read more

How Could God Love Someone Like Me?

Contributed by John Lowe on Nov 4, 2013

Blemished People Can't Come Near God

Contributed by William R. Nabaza on Sep 13, 2015

The Divine Partnership: Working Out What God Worked In Series

Contributed by Paul Dayao on Dec 9, 2025

Paul resolves the tension between faith and works by reminding us that our effort to live a holy life is only possible because God is already powerfully at work within our hearts.

On one side, there is the "Let go and let God" mentality, where we become passive, waiting for God to zap us ...read more

God’s Building

Contributed by Jimmy Haile on Oct 27, 2011

The problem with buildings is unless you’re a professional builder, you might look at two buildings and believe they are built adequate, it’s not till the storms come and then you find out which one was built with superior craftsmanship and materials!

Seek God’s Will Series

Contributed by Dave Mcfadden on Oct 7, 2019

Seeking God's will begins with our learning to think as God wants us to think. From Epaphras' prayer for the Colossians we learn how we need to go about renewing our minds in order to stand firm in all the will of God.

Paul shares with the Colossians that their brother in Christ, who was sent to minister to Paul in prison, Epaphras, was “wrestling in prayer” for them that they might “stand firm in all the will of God.” What did Paul mean by “all the will of God?” He was saying we should seek to be in God’s will ...read more
