     | 3,170 views

    Have you noticed that many things in life do not seem to change? For example, in our text, God delivered the Children of Israel from Egypt. But once they were delivered from Pharaoh, he changed his mind and decided to pursue after them and to bring them back.

    When the Israelites saw them in pursuit, the Bible says, “…They were sore afraid…” In that fear they turned to Moses and said something that was very disturbing. We read, “…And they said unto Moses, Because there were no graves in Egypt, hast thou taken us away to die in the wilderness? wherefore ...read more

     | 1,356 views

    God loves us and wants us to accept His forgiveness for our sins and bad habits, and help build the kingdom of God, and fall in love with Him and our brothers and sisters so we can all enjoy the divine companionship forever.

    Eighth Sunday in Course I have never served in the Army, but I know quite a few of my acquaintances who have. All of them testify to the rigors and hazards of the battlefield.

    Most of us refer to ourselves as being “NORMAL.”

    It must be nice in this life when someone can be more than a NORMAL PERSON and become an “EXCEPTIONAL” PERSON. That is, when normal people die the preachers who do the eulogy can pretty much sum up their entire lives in 15 to 30 minutes. When the funeral is finished the family and friends can ...read more

    God's Power Towards Us Series

    Contributed by Simon Bartlett on May 2, 2022
     | 3,392 views

    In Ephesians 1, Paul compares God's power towards us who believe with the power he used to raise Christ from the dead. It's hard to conceive! But we should believe it - and live in a way that's consistent with it.

    INTRODUCTION Two weeks ago it was Easter Sunday. So, do you suppose that we’ve now said goodbye to Easter until next year? Well, we haven’t! The season of Easter doesn’t FINISH on Easter Sunday!

    Sometimes people have a belief in their heart that if you become a Christian, everything's going to be better, you're not going to have any problems. But we know that when you become a Christian, that doesn't remove all of the problems

    Good morning. The Great Commission says to disciple by teaching them to observe (or to do) all that I've commanded you. Our mission at GraceWay is disciples making disciples. That's why we have two events next weekend. I want you to know about those. They're not just events that ...read more

     | 3,577 views

    God had a purpose in recording the conversion of the apostle Paul.

    As we look at the apostle’s Paul’s conversion, we can see clearly he was truly converted. That cannot be said of everyone who professes to be saved! WHY DO WE WONDER ABOUT PEOPLE’S SALVATION?

    Why do Christians suffer? For us to be a tried & tested people; to help us be sympathetic to others; to show the lost how Jesus makes a difference. God lets us suffer, then receive comfort, so that we can give His comfort to others.

    An expert in Jewish Law asked Jesus a question about eternal life. We have no indication that the question wasn't sincere. Eternal Life was more than a duration, but the quality, even the rewards of it. The lawyer was correct in his answer to Jesus, at least textbook, but the man got it all ...read more
