As christians, we are not only expected to be thankful unto God, but abound in thanksgiving. In all things give thanks, for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.

The scripture draws a parallel between our life and that of a tree, with many pertinent and remarkable applications that if we ignore, we do so to our own peril.

Many people today, including Christians, have settled into managing something. Managing their pain, their problems, their situation, their dilemma. But Jesus asked this lame man a question that cuts through the way it has been and opens the door to the way life could be. Do you want to be made whole? This message looks at the circumstances that create the problem and the way that God provides the solution.

As Christians, the idea of hearing God's voice, knowing for sure it is him, and following his leading can be something mystical or daunting. But God is clear in the fact that the surrender is up to us, the leading is up to him. And the responsibility of getting us to our destination is on his shoulders.

While the message of the cross may be offensive at times, there is a power available to us through it.

In Mark 5, a man named Jairus's little girl was dying, so he went in search of Jesus to bring him home to heal her. Many of us have something at home that is sick. Some of us have something at home that is dying. A few of us have something at home that is dead. This message deals with the importance, the necessity, and the power that results when a believer brings "The Resurrection and the Life" to their home.

Before the great and terrible day of the Lord the scripture is clear that there will first be a great falling away and then the son of perdition (Anti-Christ) will be revealed. We are seeing the firstfruits of it today. This message looks at what falling away is, how it happens, and how we can make sure that we are never a part of it.

When Jesus told his disciples how he must go to Jerusalem and suffer many things and be crucified, Simon Peter rebuked him, "Let it never be so Lord!" To which Jesus replied, get behind me satan, you savourest not the things of God, but only the things of man. This still happens today, in our pulpits and among others who name the name of Christ. And the satanic message is still the same, Jesus did not have to die, and neither do we. But Christ answered immediately, clearly, and definitively: If any man would come after me, he must first deny himself, take up his cross, and follow him. Making sure tomorrow that none of us are followers of "Satan's gospel."

In the beginning of life on earth, there was man, there was satan, there was sin, and there was God. And what followed after man's sin is still the most amazing thing ever recorded, an opportunity to be forgiven. But we cannot cover our shame, our covering must come from God.

Disappointment is a part and parcel of every believer's life. It is a reality, but not a residence. God plants trees of beauty out of the soil of our disappointments.

This story is a strong reminder that we cannot approach God any kind of way. There must be a reverence in our heart, and our approach must be one of spirit and truth. Many good people shipwreck in their faith because they trust their soul to another. God's word never changes.

There comes a time where we must start to take action on the promise God has given us, but we find courage to act by looking back on his faithfulness.

Before we can fight for our promise, we are invited to first know the God of the promise.

Joshua had the courage to choose God, but he found that courage by immersing himself in the Word of God.

A series on the life of Joshua and how he took hold of the promises God gave him.

God must be the cornerstone of your life. From the cornerstone is how each building block of your life will be laid.

This message deals with the issue of God bringing you out of any relationship, any place, or any practice that keeps you out of God's will against your will.

This message deals with the condition of the fallen man, his symptoms, and his opportunity. Some believe and others do not.

When God rewrites your story, he puts his pen to the paper of your life right where you are, and with one stroke at a time, changes the very testimony that comes out of other's mouths concerning you.
