    The test of life can be burdensome, but thru it all we must not allow troubles to break our faith!

    These bricks won’t break me! Exodus 5 :1 And afterward Moses and Aaron went in, and told Pharaoh, Thus saith the LORD God of Israel, Let my people go, that they may hold a feast unto me in the wilderness. 2 And Pharaoh said, Who is the LORD, that I should obey his voice to let Israel go?

     | 12,337 views

    We might feel small, just as the post exiles built a small temple. But when we are in the hands of God He chooses to use us as we are. Don’t be disheartened by how you think things are. Don’t despise the day of small things.

    Jexit: Judah Come Home Don’t Despise the Small Things. A sermon on Zechariah 4:1-14 We continue our series on Jexit – focussing on the history and situation of the Judahites when they returned from Bablyon.

    Sermon Series by Dr. Tim Pollock on Parenting

    It is one of the deep passions of my life to do all I humanly can, to raise a generation of sold-out-for-God, Bible-loving children and youth. Discipline is vital part of training champions for God. George Washington in a letter to the Virginia Regiment said, “Discipline is the soul of an ...read more

    Without question…we are all called to be good-stewards of the time God has given us. BUT…we’re called to be more than managers of our time. We are specifically called to REDEEM the time.

    I’d like you to imagine with me…that your bank account has just been credited with $1440. And let’s imagine that this happens every single day. No balance is allowed to be carried over from one day to the next. The entire balance is deleted each evening. What would you do? Hopefully…you’d ...read more

    Death In The Pot

     | 6,701 views

    So, what does this passage in 2 Kings 4 have to do with us? I told you at the beginning that this was an odd passage in the life of the prophet Elisha and it has an important message for us today. That message is all about the action word “faith.”

    DEATH IN THE POT 2 KINGS 4:38-44 #faith #deathinthepot INTRODUCTION… Bad Meal Last Week (p) I do the majority of the dinner preparation in our home. I think I am a fantastic cook.

    God's Love

    Contributed by Terry Hovey on Apr 13, 2025
     | 326 views

    But, as is usually the case, the Word of God contradicts the word of the world, and tells us that “God is love,” not the other way around.

    God’s Love 1John 4:13-21 I think it’s safe to say that the one thing our world truly needs today is love. Songs are written about it all the time. John Lennon wrote the song “All You Need is Love.” Dionne Warwick made famous the song, “What the Word Needs Now is Love”. And you know what? They’re ...read more

    This passage is one of the major Biblical passages in giving us information about Satan. What do we learn about him here?

    - This is considered one of the major Biblical passages in giving us details about Satan. Of course, it is written to the king of Tyre but the details (which we’ll unpack in the sermon) give ample reason to think this passage has two meanings. - The first is a straightforward prophecy about the ...read more

    The tenth in a series walking through the book of James. This message contrasts the temporary nature of worldly wealth, with the eternal hope found in the coming day of the Lord. It is intended to provide hope for those in financial struggles needing to

    There is no doubt that James is a book of tough teaching. In fact, I can just imagine there were probably recipients of this letter that were going through some really hard times. Maybe they had endured some persecution. We know that many of them were suffering financially. Life was not easy. ...read more
