    What can you expect when you decide to follow Jesus?

    17As for us, brothers and sisters, when, for a short time, we were made orphans by being separated from you—in person, not in heart—we longed with great eagerness to see you face to face. 18For we wanted to come to you—certainly I, Paul, wanted to again and again—but Satan ...read more

    If you make an investment, would you not expect to make a greater return than what you put in? Why should God expect less from us?

    Turn tonight to Mark 4:20 (READ) And those are the ones whom seed was sown in the good soil; and they hear the word and accept it, and bear fruit, thirty, sixty and a hundred fold. If I were to give you each tonight $100, and I were then to tell you how you could turn that $100 into ...read more

    We must believe... 1. That Jesus can do the impossible (vs. 18). 2. When His help is delayed (vs. 19-22). 3. When the crowd doubts (vs. 23-24). 4. Because we will surely see more miracles (vs. 24-26, 22).

     | 4,881 views

    Advent and Communion call us to wait, to be strong, to let our hearts take courage as we wait for day when He wakes us from our deep and dreamless sleep so that we can be with Him in the New Jerusalem.

    Imagine you’re at home … watching some TV before you go to bed … when the power suddenly goes off. It’s dark. No lights inside. No lights outside. Might make you a bit nervous, you think? Even afraid? Now imagine that you have a big dog lying at your feet. Hum … you feel a bit more at ease, ...read more

    Enduring The Night, Embracing The Morning

    Contributed by Rev. Samuel Arimoro on May 13, 2025
     | 324 views

    The night may be long, but it is not permanent. According to Psalm 30:5, “Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning.” The promise of a "morning" — a new season of breakthrough and rejoicing — gives us strength to endure.

    ENDURING THE NIGHT, EMBRACING THE MORNING By Rev. Samuel Arimoro Main Text: Psalm 30:5 Supporting Texts: Lamentations 3:22-23, Isaiah 60:1, John 16:20-22, Romans 8:18, 2 Corinthians 4:17 INTRODUCTION: Life is filled with seasons — moments of joy and pain, clarity and confusion, light and ...read more

    A New Tomorrow

    Be something far greater than an optimist. Be a faith filled doer of the will of God… do not wait for things to improve; improve them… do not wait for a new tomorrow… fill your heart with faith... and bring a new tomorrow into being.

    “A New Tomorrow” Revelation 21:1-6 Introduction They have a saying in Vienna, Austria: “The situation is hopeless, but not serious.” It’s an interesting contradiction in terms. Yet life is truly a mixture of optimism and pessimism, of hope and despair, of sunshine and shadow. Sometimes the same ...read more

    "Your Grief Will Turn To Joy!”

    Contributed by Michael Otterstatter on May 22, 2022
     | 3,555 views

    Like the disciples we must wait “a little while” to receive everything Jesus has promised us. And like the disciples there will be a time of grief while we wait. But Jesus promises that our grief will turn to joy.

    “In a little while you can go out and play.” “After a little while we’ll be going to the pool.” “After a little while I am going to be serving pie and ice cream.” “In a little while we’ll your mom and dad will be home.” “In a little while you can take a break.” “The doctor says that after a ...read more

    To lay hold of our calling is to get an eternal perspective. Not to wait for heaven, but to press toward the prize.

    Why do you go to services at your church? What are you seeking from the Saviour? People have expectations, but many times our expectations fail to match up with reality.

    “When John’s messengers had gone, Jesus began to speak to the crowds concerning John: ‘What did you go out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken by the wind? What then did you go out to see? A man dressed in soft clothing? Behold, those who are dressed in splendid clothing and live in ...read more

    Pray

    Contributed by Roger Hasselquist on May 6, 2024
     | 707 views

    The great thing is that as Christians, we don't have to wait until there is proclamation, or wait for a certain day in order to pray. The call to pray is stated clearly in scripture. One place especially clear is found in II Chronicles 7:14.

    Alba 5-5-2024 PRAY II Chronicles 7:14 This past Thursday, May 2nd, was the National Day of Prayer. A bill was passed on April 17, 1952 stating that: “The President shall set aside and proclaim a suitable day each year, other than a Sunday, as a National Day of Prayer, on which the people of ...read more
