Luke 15:1-2 If one was to stop you and to ask, “What is God like?”, I wonder what answer you’d give? What attribute would come first to mind? Would it be God’s holiness or omnipotence?

Associate Pastor Devin Warfield continues our series "Righteous Rewards” encompassing almsgiving, prayer, fasting, and giving to the church.

Part of our mission is to live the Word of God in our daily lives. In Galatians 5, Paul says that we need to walk by the Spirit, but how do we do that? We must set our minds on the things of the Spirit. As we go through each fruit of the Spirit in the coming weeks, remember that spiritual growth is neither instantaneous nor self-generated. We must …

Romans 8:14 There’s one feature of the Holy Spirit’s leading that I’ve learned from experience, one that is widely attested to in the Sacred record, and that is the spontaneity of His leading!!!

1 Corinthians 15:42-44 It is the earnest desire, to lay before you the certain and definite hope of the Christian. Assurances like this cannot be found in this world due to its transient state of temporariness. Search high and low, with diligence and scrutiny, but O man, your search will be in vain.

Often, we let our circumstances determine how we're doing. Yet, Jesus reminds us that while we will face trouble, we can take heart because He has overcome the world. Our true source of life is found in Him. If you're struggling, turn to Jesus—surviving relies on our own strength, but thriving comes from abiding in Him. Additionally, God has given …

Pastor Jonathan Barbee concludes our series on the Messianic Gifts as we looks at the gift of Jesus' sacrifice. The problem with Old Testament Sacrifices was that sacrifices were temporary solutions and institutions. Sacrifices never met the demands of sins.

Proverbs 22:3 It’s one thing for an unsaved man to be a fool, but for a Christian to be counted as a fool? It’s a great shame and a reproach and ought never to be!

Part 13 Every cult without exception denies the doctrine of salvation by grace alone, through faith alone, in Christ alone. Although they may utilise concepts such as grace and faith, what is written outside the box is never what’s inside.

Judges 8:22-28 The secret to obtaining heaven’s revival blessing; the key to unlocking heaven’s grace is humility. “Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time” (1 Pet. 5:6).

Life without Jesus is chaos, and we spend our lives looking for temporary relief. However, Jesus offers us new life in Him. New life is a gift of God, unmerited, undeserved, and Jesus patiently waits to give it to anyone who would receive. Through Jesus we are made alive. We are no longer defined by our past, our sins, or our failures.…
