Fasting Plus Prayer Plus Faith Equals God Being With Us

Contributed by Craig Condon on Aug 28, 2015

Jehovah-Tsidkenu, God Our Righteousness Series

Contributed by Justin Steckbauer on Oct 10, 2022

God says, “I have done it myself.” Instead of striving to do good deeds, to climb the walls of the pit to escape from sin, we must recognize our own inability. “All have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God.” (Romans 3:23).

What does it feel like to be in God’s presence? Have you ever felt his presence in a moment in time? It’s royal, God’s presence. Like royalty is present. It’s soft, like a whisper. It’s like a cloud comes over you, a cloud of God’s presence. It’s like the moment in time slows down. You become ...read more

The Power Of The Cross Series

Contributed by Scott Turansky on Jan 1, 2023

The power of the cross is so great that we've chosen to make this cross the emblem. We look at that cross and we don't just think about death, we think about life.

I think there's something inside of all of our hearts that loves superheroes. I think that as I was growing up, I really liked the Old Testament Bible stories of Samson, David, Moses, and Joshua.
