     | 4,448 views

    We live in an age when it is common for Fathers to desert their wives or children because they get tired of marriage. Some desert their callings because of the sufferings involved seem tougher than they originally conceived.

     | 10,325 views

    Mothers of today should be ambitious for their children to enter into fellowship with Jesus Christ.

    Many have tended to join with the other ten apostles in an attitude of hostility toward Salome, the mother of James and John, because of her prayer for preferential consideration for her sons. It is significant to note that while Christ corrected her He did not berate, criticize or condemn her. ...read more

    This sermon deals with how we see and treat others, even in the church.

    James 2:1-13 "Favoritism Forbidden" By Pastor Mark Hiehle In our society today, we like to think of ourselves as open-minded and fair.

    Christians walk a different walk. Not only do we walk along a different path, but we also walk in a different manner. The difference is caused by our active and dynamic relationship with Jesus.

    2 Corinthians 5:6-10, 14-17 “Walking By Faith” INTRODUCTION Various Christian groups have attempted to define what it is like to live as a Christian. At the turn of the twentieth century, the evangelist, Billy Sunday, believed that temperance was the mark of a Christian. Christians shouldn’t ...read more

    based on 11 ratings
     | 7,762 views

    Have you ever wondered why God would chose shepherds? Why not Rabbis, priests, King Herod, or the High Priest himself?

    Why Shepherds? Scripture Reading: Luke 2:8­20 Last week we heard about the birth of John the Baptist and that he was the forerunner to Jesus. He was called from the womb to prepare the way for our Lord. This morning we are going to look at shepherds. Shepherds were not really important in the ...read more

    based on 46 ratings
     | 3,609 views

    As Christians, we are to strive after a persistent, ceaseless prayer-life that is built on two-way conversation.

    IT HAS BEEN SAID THAT PRAYER DOES NOT NEED PROOF OUTSIDE ITSELF BECAUSE ITS PROOFS ARE WITHIN. IT IS IN THE NATURE AND FUNCTION OF MAN, LIKE BREATHING, EATING AND DRINKING, AND HE PRACTICES IT AS PART OF HIS VERY BEING. PRAYER IN THE LIFE OF A CHRISTIAN IS ESSENTIAL YET SO FEW MAKE IT SO.
