Live By God’s Promise! Series

Waiting on God can be one of the most challenging times. The temptation to step in and take control of the circumstances is great. It also causes ...read more

God’s True Light Series

Contributed by Scott Turansky on Nov 16, 2022

Let the truth of the true light set you free. Living in lies, living in darkness is no way to live. In fact, it's not living at all. The freedom of the true light is the freedom from sin.

I wonder if you have the same problem that I have. I'm not talking about falling asleep when you're supposed to take out the trash, but rather not being able to find a working flashlight when you need one. This is a common problem, you know. I have a tote in the garage, so right when I need ...read more

Forcing God’s Hand

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Feb 26, 2022

This message looks at the account of someone who was given a promise by God that he would receive a great blessing. But he, along with his wife, took matters into their own hands, and tried to get ahead of God, leading to strife.

In our message this morning we’re going to focus on how we need to have patience when following the Lord. Hebrews is a book of the Bible that frequently talks about following God in faith, and we read that those who are patient will be able to “inherit the promises” (Hebrews 6:12).

Receiving God’s Grace

Contributed by D. Dewaine Phillips on Mar 3, 2022

There are many believers who know about grace in their mind, but they haven’t taken it to heart. God loves us for who we are, and we do not have to perform for Him or try to be perfect. All the Lord expects is that we simply be His.

Jesus said, “If the Son makes you free, you will be free indeed” (Jn 8:36 NASB); but how many Christians are actually living as though they’re free? Some portray the look of a death row inmate awaiting the day of execution! There are believers living with regret over past mistakes and sins, and ...read more
