    How can we effectively resist the snares of the enemy? What are the guiding principals we need to win the battle over the Powers of Darkness?

    Spiritual Warfare RECOGNIZE: Recognizing you’re in a war is a big part of victory, because knowing the enemy’s tactics is to be in the light – and the devil works in darkness. The devil takes advantage of our ignorance, but when there’s light, he can’t do what he planned. The Bible teaches us to ...read more

    Making small changes in our lives or the lives of others can have big impacts, especially since we live in an area that is spiritually dry and thirsty.

He constantly asked the minister to give him some work that would be helpful to the church. Finally, the minister gave the man a list of ten people ...read more

    Spiritual Warfare: The Flesh Vs. The Spirit Series

    Contributed by Matthew Kratz on Feb 1, 2019
     | 7,045 views

    Galatians 5:16–18 introduces the passage by setting forth the nature of Spiritual Warfare between the flesh and the Spirit. In this we see 1) The Warfare Command (Galatians 5:16), 2) The Warfare Conflict (Galatians 5:17), and 3) The Warfare Caution (Galatians 5:18).

    One of the most tragic elements of warfare is the event of collateral damage. Often in military operations, civilians are caught in the crossfire. Whether it is in Palestine or Iraq, civilians often get hurt between two fighting forces. Sometimes, one side, usually the weaker one, deliberately puts ...read more

     | 2,948 views

    Although many of our struggles as followers of Jesus are with the world, the flesh, and the devil, sometimes they are about monitoring our inner affections and deep seated thoughts.

    Our Subjective Spiritual Struggles: They Matter (I John 3:19-24, 4:7-21) 1. Today I begin my message with some comments about modern art. It’s easy to understand modern art. If it hangs on a wall, it’s a painting. If you can walk around it, it’s a sculpture. How many surrealists does it take to ...read more

    Spiritual Gangrene: Necrosis Of The Body Of Christ

    Contributed by Chuck Brooks on Sep 3, 2020
     | 3,604 views

    When it comes to the church, church growth is naturally related to church health. Healthy churches, like healthy people, must grow. In his book, The Purpose Driven Church, Pastor Rick Warren says that if our church is healthy, attendance will be the least of our problems. He writes that ...read more

    Spiritual Warfare: Not Having Enough Power

    Contributed by John Gaston on Aug 29, 2021
     | 3,499 views

    The nine disciples had insufficient power to deliver the boy who had a spirit. I believe that many Christians would also fail this test. Why? We need a bigger connection to the Holy Spirit by prayer and fasting.
