    There are only three men in Scripture who were under a Nazirite Vow from birth: Samson, Samuel, and John the Baptist. They show us a pattern that is fulfilled in the birth and ministry of Jesus. Though they were in the limelight, they really prepared the

    John the Baptist received the word of God in the desert, and prepared the people for the coming of Christ by calling them to repentance.

    We are in the season of Advent. We prepare now for the coming of Christ at Christmas, and we recall that He will come again with power and great glory on the last day. The Incarnation was long foretold by the prophets and looked for by God’s faithful people. The secular world prepares for ...read more

    Elijah & Obadiah Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 11,679 views

    Obadiah was a good man in a bad place, risking all to protect God's prophets...his concerns resonate with anyone with a stressful job, and show us the path to encouragement and reassurance.

    It would be easy to skip over this passage as merely a transition, leading to the exciting confrontation that follows on Mount Carmel. Yet this brief episode in the life of Elijah is for anyone who feels discouraged and defeated. Following three years of drought, three years of decisively ...read more

    Each decision we make in life is not a discrete unit. It is connected in a long chain of decisions that leads in a trajectory either towards the character of the Lord or away from it. This part of Psalm 119 helps us set the right course in life.

    105 – 112 Verse 105 is one of the coolest verses in the Bible. It really speaks to the working of God’s Word in our lives. A “lamp to my feet” suggests providing guidance in the near-term, the everyday sorts of decisions in life: how do I answer, how should I react, what ...read more

    It is interesting to see what we once were and to compare it with what we are. Paul does that in Romans 6 as he says we once were slaves to sin, but now are slaves to righteousness.

    Flipping through old photo albums, or even Facebook photos, can be a very interesting thing. It is neat to see what you were compared to what you are now. It can be interesting to see how you used to look and dress compared to how you do currently. Sometimes it can make you say, “What was I ...read more

    What does it really mean to be a survivor? In our world today we talk about all kinds of survivors.... abuse, cancer and the list goes on. It’s a great thing to be a survivor but-I want to do more than just survive, I want to overcome.

    Survivor or Overcomer? 1st John 5:1-6 Perhaps you’ve heard of the TV series called survivor. This program has aired 510 episodes and is now in its 34th season.
