    We have won the victory through Jesus Christ, but why aren’t we living that way?

    So much of the time I see Christians walking around with their heads hanging down saying “woe is me, woe is me, the sky is falling”. Where is our joy? Where is our peace? Jesus hung on that cross and took on our sins and rose from the grave on the third day, He declared victory over death, hell ...read more

    Faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of Christ. John 7 shows us the struggle many had with hearing Jesus, even his brothers.

    Chapter 7 opens with Jesus having to stay clear of Judea because he was in danger of being killed there. Is there anywhere you know of that people are looking to kill you if you show up? Just imagine that. Next we learn that there is a feast of Tabernacles coming up and Jesus’ brothers tell him ...read more

    This is the fourth set of words Jesus utters from the cross. It is a pivotal phrase and is purposefully the fourth statement he made. While this utterance could call the relationship between God and Jesus into question, it actually melds it and shows how

    My God, My God, Why Have You Forsaken Me? Matthew 27:45-50 ETS: Jesus, God, cries out for His inner strength to endure ESS: We must cry out to God in our struggles.

    Jesus has triumphed! But He had to die and rise again to win that victory. Unlike conquerors of old who were thieves and robbers who came to steal and kill and destroy Jesus came to give life, and life abundant.

    In all the Earth’s history there have been the conquerors and the conquered. Among some of the more famous conquerors are these: Genghis Khan, Alexander The Great, Cyrus The Great, Attila the Hun and Julius Caesar. While these conquerors varied in terms of greatness and success, they shared in ...read more

    This message explains why Jesus could not perform a great work in His hometown of Nazareth.

    Text: “He could not do any miracles there, except lay his hands on a few sick people and heal them” (Mark 6:5). If Jesus could not do any more miracles here in Nazareth He must be classified as a failure. Do you agree with that statement? If you or I try to write a book or a song and we are ...read more

    Spend your kid's inheritance while you can. After all the world will die with you. This is the wisdom of the world. Is that any way to live? And what happens to you when you die?

    Elijah’s experience tells us that no matter how saved you are you’re going to have some bad days. Your faith will be tried, there are seasons in your life when you will question what you believe, when you will doubt your faith.
