The storming bull followed in hot pursuit, and it was soon apparent they wouldn’t make it. Terrified, the one shouted to the other, "Put up a prayer, John. We’re in for ...read more

     | 407 views

    David is a hugely important figure in the Bible. But if we're going to learn from him we need to have an understanding of why he is so important.

We could easily give David much more time than that – he’s such an important person in the Bible, but we can’t fit in more than eight studies between now and December ...read more

    While most people --including many professing Christians -- indiscriminately follow the popular culture and focus their lives on either looks, materialism, popularity, success, power, prestige, or social acceptance -- why should we pursue God and godlines

    God wants the fire of the Holy Spirit to burn within us. However, tragically, once the fire of the Spirit is ignited, we often grab a fire extinguisher and douse the flame. This message looks at why and how this tragic occurrence happens.

It was actually the Fire Chief himself! This fellow “would secretly start the fires and then work to extinguish them . . ...read more
