    Can God Really Meet My Needs?

    Experience God’s provision when we trust in his goodness like Elijah

    Be careful what you pray for you just might get it. That is exactly what happened to Elijah. He took on the dubious joy of praying against his own nation as it fell deeper and deeper into sin. Jew and Gentile, young and old, person and livestock were all in the midst of a deep drought and the ...read more

    Following the Leader isn’t always quick or easy

    Simon was busier than he should have been. He had an important dinner coming up and was running short of time as he made the preparations. Sitting arrangements, making sure there was enough food, servants and the like all taxed him to the nth degree. He was going to have this preacher/miracle ...read more

     | 10,904 views

    How do you feel when someone welcomes you, specially if that is the first time you are there? There is nothing that the sad, frustrated, lonely, pathetic, empty soul does not like more than a friendly and smiling face saying “welcome”.

    How Hospitable are We? Genesis 18:1-8 NT: Hebrews 13: 2 1 The LORD appeared to Abraham near the great trees of Mamre while he was sitting at the entrance to his tent in the heat of the day. 2 Abraham looked up and saw three men standing nearby. When he saw them, he hurried from the entrance of his ...read more

    Worry

    based on 14 ratings
     | 10,354 views

    The two Christian ingredients for combating worry are having Jesus in your heart and having faith in Jesus.

    WORRY (Mt.8:23-27) It is one of the Bible’s prescriptions for worry--this incident on the sea I just read to you. How often we are told not to worry, but worry we do about our health, job, family, some personal problem, some world crisis, ...read more

    Two Great Mysteries In Life Series

    Contributed by Terry Blankenship on Mar 5, 2013
     | 12,880 views

    Life is full of uncertainties. Solomon questions the meaning of life: who am I? why am I here? and where am I going? 3 questions we all ask at some point in our seemingly meaningless life.

    1 For I considered all this in my heart, (WHY?) so that I could declare it all: that the righteous and the wise and their works are in the hand of God. People know neither love nor hatred by anything they see before them. 2 All things come alike to all: One (fate-event) happens to the righteous ...read more

    You will face storms in life. In these storms there is a Promised Destination, a Plight of Desperation and a Powerful Demonstration.

    Mark 4:35-41 Facing the Storms in Life On the same day, when evening had come, He said to them, "Let us cross over to the other side." Now when they had left the multitude, they took Him along in the boat as He was. And other little boats were also with Him. 4:35-36 And a great windstorm arose, ...read more

     | 7,870 views

    Much of our lives are spent worrying about the future and what might happen. Many times we worry more about possibilities than probabilities. Jesus encourages us to pay attention to His work in the world around us and gives us tools to fight fear.

    For more studies including an audio version of this study go to: www.CalvaryChapelNewberg.org. A recent Time Magazine cover reads "Why We Worry About the Wrong Things." In the article it says: "We pride ourselves on being the only species that understands the concept of risk, yet we have a ...read more

    A devotional talk prepared for a men’s breakfast about how the Holy Spirit tries to communicate with us if we allow Him to. I also invited the men to share "Holy Nudges" that happened to them.

    “Holy Nudges” (Inspired by Article written by Clark Cothern, Discipleship Mag. Mar./Apr. ’08, Issue #164, p. 57-59) An example of a “holy nudge:” At one point in my previous ministry in Santa Fe.

    Let me begin with a simple question – have you ever been in a situation where you were disgraced? St James says…“We all stumble in many ways.
