Finding Hope In The Midst Of A Pandemic

Contributed by Otis Mcmillan on Jan 26, 2021

Hope is what people need right now, and hope is so hard to find apart from a relationship with Jesus Christ. John 14:6 reads, “Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.”

Finding Hope in the midst of a Pandemic “My hope is built on nothing less, Than Jesus’ blood and righteousness. I dare note trust the sweetest frame, but wholly lean on Jesus’ name. On Christ the solid rock I stand, all other ground is sinking sand.” Edward Mote (1797-1874) falls into the rare ...read more

Power Of Easter

Contributed by Chris Mccall on Mar 29, 2024

The passion I felt from the heart of the Holy Spirit was to impact every person on this Easter Sunday with the power that was released in the Resurrection of Jesus!

TPT… For we’ve been buried with Him into His death. Our “baptism into death” also means we were raised with Him when we believed in God’s resurrection power, the power that raised Him from death’s realm. This “realm of death” describes our former state, for we were held in sin’s grasp. But now, ...read more

No Greater Love! Series

Contributed by Brian Williams on Jul 13, 2023

Jesus’ love wasn’t empty words. His love was manifested as he stood silent before His mockers and accusers, by every cruel lash He took for us, by every step He took on the road to Calvary, by each nail driven into his body. This should have been us.

Christ’s incarnation - was when God, the Creator of the earth and of every living creature and of the entire universe was born on the earth as a man. Christ’s ...read more
