    Is it "WHAT you know or WHO you know"? Or is it that "what you know helps you know He who knows you better than you know yourself". UNDERSTANDING = PUTTING IT ALL TOGETHER ABOUT CHRIST.

    Matthew 13:51 - UNDERSTAND?! - Part 19 Why is He asking me this question? Yes, I understand! Well, not everything but I get most of what He is trying to tell me! Actually I miss quite a lot of what He is saying. OK, OK. I admit it. At times I so don't get it. My teacher in primary school slammed ...read more

    "Can you hear me now?" is a much asked question. God wants us to listen not just for the facts or simply to know He’s talking. He desires for us to listen with understanding. This message calls us to listen with our hearts.

    The Unveiling Hear With Your Heart Revelation 1:4-8 * (TEXT) One of the funniest & truest of all slogans is the Verizon ad which says, “Can you hear me now?” Obviously, the issue is cell phone connectivity for millions.

    Scripture is a blessing that many of us take for granted, a tool that will establish us well for spiritual battles and develop us as individuals in life and in character.

There are other places where the Bible is held in very high ...read more
