     | 14,479 views

    The heart must be prepared by the Spirit to receive the Word and yield a spiritual harvest. Jesus discussed the four types of soil and their impact on the Kingdom. One tiny seed sown in the right place has unbelievable potential.

    Sowing and Harvest Mark 4: 1-20 Today we come to the first parable of Jesus, recorded in Mark’s gospel. This approach to teaching marks a definite shift in Jesus’ teaching style. We have discussed many accounts of the intense opposition Jesus faced while expounding truth. Along with the Pharisees ...read more

    Don’t Ask How You Are Doing, Tell Them About Jesus

     | 3,867 views

    Most know in their heart how they are doing in life. Those without Jesus know that there is an empty place in their heart that needs to be filled. But, most don’t realize what it takes to fill it.

    Don’t ask how you are doing, tell them about Jesus. Luke 5:3 And he entered into one of the ships, which was Simon’s, and prayed him that he would thrust out a little from the land. And he sat down, and taught the people out of the ship. 4 Now when he had left speaking, he said unto ...read more

    Most mothers have known the pain of having to place their babies in a day-care facility for the first time and knowing they would have to be away from them for eight or nine hours while they went to work.

    Illus: Recently one mother, who had to do this with her first baby, explained that she began to cry as she wrapped that little eight-pound boy up in his warm blanket to get him ready for the day-care.

     | 5,079 views

    When a ministry grows, there will be those who will hear of the great harvest taking place; but when they see the work that it entails, they will wait for someone else to do the job, hoping to benefit from the hard work of others.

    When we communicate a compelling vision for our church and community, we will start seeing people join our fellowship. They will hear of the blessings of the Promised Land and want to become a part of it; however, not everyone will partake of the rewards. It won’t just happen automatically ...read more

    Hearing The Shepherds Voice Series

    Contributed by Brian Williams on Jul 13, 2023
     | 1,855 views

    When we get to know Jesus, we can trust Him that wherever He is leading us is good and for our good. And so we want to put ourselves in the place of hearing His voice.

    Last week, we spoke about, "The Peace of Jesus, the valuable gift of Peace". Most importantly, he asked what the source of our peace and its quality is. I think this will be a good juncture to ponder on that point “the source and quality of our Peace” while reflecting on our lives and ...read more

    If we reject cultural stereotypes, classism and our own spiritual pride, in favor of unity, love and admiration for God and one another, we will accomplish the mission we have been placed on earth for.

    This week we continue our series called Chronos. A term which means time. We have decided to study the scriptures this year in the order they were published.

    God designed the family as a sacred institution and placed the father at its helm, not only as a provider and protector but as a priest. The priestly role of the father is one of spiritual responsibility — to lead his home in the worship and fear of the Lord.
