Proverbs states, “Where there is no vision, the people perish” (Proverbs 29:18 KJV). Bill Hybels, in his book Courageous Leadership, tells us, “When a leader is casting a vision publicly the goal is to help people know, understand, and remember the ‘main thing’.”(1) Purpose is all about keeping ...read more

The Power Of Forgivness Series

Contributed by Scott Maze on Jun 3, 2021

One of the things I love about this prayer is that it doesn’t pretend there aren’t real problems around us. It confronts the real needs in the world – pain and hunger. The Lord’s Prayer is designed to change our priorities and to reverse our thinking.

This is the fourth message for us to look at the Lord’s Prayer. And it’s the richest single source in the entire Bible of information on how to pray. One story stands out about the importance of the Lord’s Prayer in the life of a Christian is from a gentleman who attends at NRH, Mike O’Neil. Mike ...read more

This is the 8th devotion in the series, 'Building Relationships that Last,' and concerns the power that words possess, and how they impact our relationships.

It is said that an average person speaks about 5000 to 10,000 words every day.

Pentecostal Power Series

Contributed by Glenn Pease on Mar 20, 2021
