    We are at the most pivotal times in history: we are on the brink of the greatest and the worst events that have ever hit planet earth: (Are you ready) There is a shaking, and there is Glory

    Lu 1:17 Isa 60:1-3 As I have heard and seen things transpiring in America that we never believed could happen, such as legalizing gay marriage selling baby body parts, people given the legal right to use whatever restroom they choose based on their sexual orientation rather than the anatomy they ...read more

    This sermon explores our roles in the body of Christ and how to use our unique gifts to serve God and each other humbly.

    Good morning, beloved. It's a joy to be in the House of the Lord today, isn't it? As we gather in this place, our hearts knit together in unity, we are reminded of the beautiful tapestry of the body of Christ.

    How To Be A Do-Gooder

    Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 8, 2022
     | 1,548 views

    Ted Bundy is well known for one thing; he was a serial killer. He was a nice looking young man and he favored killing pretty, dark-haired cheerleader type girls.

    He would bludgeon his prey to death with blunt objects and was fond of raping and biting them. He was a clean-cut serial killer that confessed to 28 killings, but other estimates indicate that he brutally killed as many as 33 to 100 female victims during the 1970's. After numerous appeals, ...read more

    Grab Hold Of The Authority And Power Of God

    Contributed by James May on Aug 31, 2022
     | 5,581 views

    We must have God's authority and power with us if we are to fight the spiritual warfare in these last hours. We need faith to reach out and take hold of God's promises like the Woman with the issue of blood who took hold of the hem of his garment.

    Grab Hold of the Authority and Power of God We live in a time when so many in the church have taken on the attitude of the people who lived in the Land of the Gadarenes in Luke chapter 8. I won’t go into the history of the land of the Gadarenes except to say that many of those who lived there ...read more

    Cosy In The Culture Series

    The story of Esther is an amazing story of how God can use His people to accomplish His will. But Mordecai and Esther were not always the heroes. Much like our world today, Esther and Mordecai were cosy in their culture. As Christians, we need to be different from the world.

    Introduction Video Ill.: Book of Esther in 20 Words This morning, we are starting a new study based loosely on Max Lucado’s book, You Were Made for This Moment. If you want to study deeper, there is a great study guide that comes with a series of videos you can stream online. It is available ...read more

    This sermon emphasizes the need to support your leader in their time of adversity.

    In the heat of battles, our souls will often become faint. Bouts of depression will come to most of us. The strong are not always vigorous. The wise are not alway ready. The brave are not always courageous. The joyous are not always happy. Great travail is created for all men. It is clear that the ...read more

    Why not be a winner not a looser.

    LOOK WHAT GOD HAS FOR US WHO SERVE HIM Each and every one who does his best for the Lord will have a reward in the end. We find in the new testament five crowns we can win. This is a promise of our Father. These crowns show our qualities of accomplishments in our life time. These ...read more

    Heavy Lifting

    I believe in this day and age the Church is in the condition it is and can be summed up by understanding the importance of HEAVY LIFTING. I believe we have stopped doing the HEAVY LIFTING required to lead the Lost to Christ.

    TITLE: HEAVY LIFTING SCRIPTURE: ST. JOHN 3:14-15 / ST. JOHN 12:32 One of the things I enjoyed about lifting weights is there's no gray area – • You either manage to lift a certain weight - or you don't • There are clear successes and clear failures • Either you Can or you Can’t • This ...read more

    I. Introduction Some have already crashed and burned! Others are killing it. Fasts. Workout plans. Pages read. Promises kept. Promises broken.

    John was caught up in the spirit to the third heaven seeing futurtric events that would soon take place.
