     | 2,565 views

    We will experience seasons of ups and downs in the ministry. There are days when we feel like an eagle soaring on the high winds, while other days we feel like a deflated balloon.

    Brothers and Sisters, I wish to share this devotion with you.

     | 7,252 views

    We need to test (examine) ourselves and see if the attitudes of our heart, soul and mind are in perfect alignment with those of Jesus. What we do is as important as what we say!

    JESUS CHRIST PLACED GREAT EMPHASIS ON MEETING THE UNBELIEVER RIGHT WHERE THEY WERE AND IN WHATEVER STATE THEY ARE CURRENTLY LIVING. HE REALIZED THAT MANY CHRISTIANS, EVEN TODAY, STILL STRUGGLE TO COMPREHEND THIS AS CRITICALLY IMPORTANT IN THEIR CHRISTIAN LIFE. I AM CONVINCED THAT THE LATEST ...read more

    We are over our lifetime changed into His image. That’s what God wants for us, and that’s what we come together weekly to pray for.

    Third Sunday in Advent 2023 (sermon 2) Many years ago I had a theology professor who told me that the secret to successfully teaching theology is found in this letter of St. Paul to the Thessalonians: “Test everything.” And that’s actually good advice.

     | 4,278 views

    The Wilderness Experience can make us feel all alone, under pressure, lost, and even wondering if GOD has abandoned us. But that's not the case. HE leads us in the wilderness, if we would only quiet ourselves amid the distractions and tune in to hear HIS voice.
