    Christian transformation is not about human effort but about the power of the Holy Spirit renewing our minds, leading us to live lives of devotion to God, and not conforming to the patterns of this world.

    We have studied, in past weeks, practical instructions for righteous behavior in the assemblies of God. Apostle Paul wrote letters to a mixed assembly of Jews and Gentiles at Corinth; new converts, being young in the faith, and older, more seasoned members in the faith of Jesus Christ. The assembly ...read more

    based on 166 ratings
     | 14,961 views

    A tribute to the Godly Mother’s which God places in our lives. The Love of a mother is the closest thing that I can think of to a worldly view of "Agape" love of God.

    Praise God for Mother’s I tell you when I call home I so look forward to the voice of my mother. I love my dad, but I do love to talk and spend time with my mother. Why is this so? I know that with certainty the love of a mother for a child far surpasses what is common in our world and ...read more

    Tonight from this passage of scripture I want us to learn, not how to make our life count from a worldly perspective but from a more important spiritual perspective.

They slice a coconut in two, hollow it out, and in one half of the shell cut a hole just big enough for a monkey’s hand to pass through. Then they place an orange in ...read more

    Religion that focuses only on the details of things you’re allowed or not allowed to touch or eat is dealing with worldly and perishable things. God is much bigger than that!

    Colossians 2:6-23 “A Big Sigh of Relief” As Christians, it seems like we are always trying to add more stuff... …rules, regulations, don’t do this, don’t say that… “…you gotta have this, you gotta have that…” But in our Scripture ...read more
