    Contributed by Johnny Wilson on Aug 24, 2009
    based on 1 rating
     | 10,577 views

    Numbers 12 provides a pattern which demonstrates the way dissension develops among God’s People and why. Two New Testament passages show the antidote.

    It was one of those nightmares I hope never to experience again. Our regular mid-week prayer service usually had somewhere between 6-10 people in attendance with a maximum of 4-5 cars parked alongside the church building to accommodate them. As I pulled up to the church on this particular night, I ...read more

    We are not to be just satisfied with a baby in a manger but to listen, believe, and take action, following the main purpose of why Christ came to earth, which was to seek and save the lost!

    During the Christmas season, many of us decorate with a scene that looks like this (show picture of Nativity). What is true about this scene?? The world will accept the fact that there was a special baby born about 2000 years ago which makes us think about peace, joy, and love. But what is the ...read more

    A sermon about how America has been blessed, why it has been blessed, and what we as citizens, are supposed to do to keep our nation blessed.

They did not come by man’s hands, nor did they “just happen that way.” Since yesterday was Independence Day, I think it only ...read more
