     | 43,715 views

    A light was going to illuminate those living in darkness, in the land Naphatli and Zebulun. Why did God only mention those two fairly insignificant tribes in this prophecy? And what was this light to accomplish in our our lives?

    It’s obvious why kids look forward to Christmas. But today we’re going to look at two people who were looking forward in eager anticipation for a much different reason.

    INTRODUCTION: Remember when you were a kid and you couldn’t wait until Christmas arrived? When my brother and I were young, my Mom would have this Christmas calendar with cotton balls stuck to each of the squares. Each day we took turns taking a cotton ball off. We were excited to do so ...read more

    Why would God allow bad things in our lives? So we can develop a strong faith; one which could actually save our eternal lives during a stronger storm later

    LUKE 8:22-25 ‘One day, Jesus and His disciples got into a boat, and He told them, ‘Let’s cross the lake.’ They started out, and while they were sailing across, Jesus went to sleep.

    Who To Invite?

    Contributed by Thomas Bowen on Feb 11, 2011
    based on 4 ratings
     | 5,600 views

    We want to control the cost of inviting people to an event. We don't know why people need an invitation to our church, so we don't accept the cost of inviting outsiders into the church.

    Who to invite? It is pretty amazing how many special occasions all of us are involved in. There are birthday parties and graduation parties, block parties , retirement parties, 4th of july, labor day. I have been blessed as a pastor to be involved in lots of special occasions for families. ...read more

    A Father’s Love - A Father’s Anger Series

    based on 1 rating
     | 13,130 views

    Father’s who allow anger to take control of their minds will stop expressing love to those closest to them. Why, because the emotion of uncontrolled anger turns to rage and drives out the emotion and presence of love.

    Have you ever wondered why other people seem to float through life on a flowery bed of ease, and it seems like your life is one battle after another, and one trial on top of another?

    I didn’t come to this house just to preach, I came to prophesy: I hear the Lord saying that many of you have been going through some deep dark trials, some of you are in the fire right now, and the truth is, it’s not just normal everyday trials. Some of you have been experiencing crazy ...read more

    Why would the host of heaven rejoice over massive destruction of a city, a system and a multitude of humanity? All of the rebellion, the filth, the hurt, destruction, war, famine, pestilence, suffering, evil and tyranny end forever. Hallelujah!

    Every major kingdom in history, in an out of the Bible, was noted for it's abundance of gold. This is why the final kingdom of God's people is pictured as one of pure gold, for that has been the test of the glory of all the kingdoms in history.
