    We presume upon God’s patience and tolerance, but do not understand those characteristics of His love. They are central to knowing Him.

    Opening Joke: Did you hear about the teacher who was helping one of her kindergarten students put his boots on? He asked for help and she could see why. With her pulling and him pushing, the boots still didn’t want to go on. When the second boot was finally on, she had worked up a sweat. She ...read more

    God loves you so much he is prepared to be engaged to you. But there is wonderful news if we understand His commitment to this engagement.

    The greatest engagement Hosea 2:19 – 20 The first question that comes to mind is what does betroth means? The word betroth = to be engaged.

    This sermon is to get the believer to understand that he or she don’t have to live the life they are living. IT’S TIME FOR CHANGE!

    “I’m Changing The Way I Live” The problem with the children of God is that we gain the knowledge of God and never allow the spirit of God to complete the work in us. The carnal mind judges after what it sees, feels and taste. Our conciliation can not be in what we have. To be spiritually minded ...read more

    Making Romans 10 applicable to today is crucial to understanding salvation. The context includes salvation, evangelism, and Israel’s obstinate rebellion.

    Romans 10 In this chapter Paul continues his explanation of what happened to Israel.

And just as God chose Israel to be his people as a light to the gentiles, He has ...read more
