Abounding Grace

Whether it’s after our feelings get hurt or things don’t go our way a fight or squabble can so easily lead to contention and even division. It even happens within the local church. Today on Abounding Grace we take a look at the damage on the other side of contentions and divisions that are birthed out of our flesh.

Heaven in not simply a destination - for the Christian it’s a motivation. That’s what the apostle Paul wanted the Corinthian Church to know and believe. In Second Corinthians chapter five, we are reminded that we all will give an account to the Lord for the things that we’ve done on earth even believers. That ought to inspire us to make it our goal to please the Lord. To support this ministry fina...

The first century church of Corinth certainly had its fair share of problems... lawsuits, division, fighting, immorality, and mistakes were occurring left and right. In light of all of this, it’s interesting to note Paul’s approach to them as he introduces First Corinthians. He was thankful, hopeful, and focused on who they were in Christ as well as God’s grace. Today on Abounding Grace we visit F...

Today on Abounding Grace we begin a helpful series in First Corinthians with pastor Ed Taylor.

Here recently on Abounding Grace we’ve been encouraged to Take it All! But before we can actually do that we need to say to God, Lord You Can Have It All! This necessitates surrender and obedience on our part. We’ll talk about it today, as pastor Ed Taylor visits Proverbs chapter three and Romans chapter twelve.

There’s a physical world all around us. It’s very real to us because we can see it with our own eyes. But there’s also a spiritual world as well, that is just as real! Problem is we can’t see what’s going on in this hidden spiritual realm. So today on Abounding Grace pastor Ed Taylor is going to challenge us to start praying, Lord open our eyes to see what we cannot see! That’s actually a prayer o...

Pastor Ed Taylor has been taking us through the Book of Second Corinthians and we invite you to open your Bible to chapter five.

We’ve all experienced it we’ve done or said something terrible, and feel bad about it. But where do you go from there? Pastor Ed will show us how to experience godly sorrow that leads to repentance. If we’re going to enjoy all that God has for us then we’re going to need this godly sorrow. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/302/29

You can probably look back on your life and think of quite a number of things that you did in the past that you now regret. Maybe it was using drugs, hanging out with the wrong people, or lying to someone. But God wants us to take it one step further and move from regret to repentance which is turning from the sin to Christ. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/don...

Rise up and go take the land! That was God’s message to the people of Israel in Joshua chapter one, but today on Abounding Grace we’ll pause to consider that the Lord may very well be speaking that to us too! We’re to go forward by faith and take all that God has for us. Perhaps this is the day for you to embrace that. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/30...

We’re nearing the end of our studies in the book of Acts. And in chapter twenty-eight the apostle Paul is making his way to Rome through a storm, then he’s shipwrecked and to top it off snake bit. You might be thinking at this point, why is he here at Malta why the storm and so much trouble? On a personal level, maybe that crosses your mind when you’re in a storm? Pastor Ed will point out that God...

Some travel for enjoyment, others for business and others still to advance the gospel. Paul was in that third category, and could write a book on it! Today we’ll hear of Paul’s travels in Acts twenty-seven. And it wasn’t an easy, comfortable trip that’s putting mildly. In fact it ended in shipwreck!

How do you react to change in your life? If you’re like a lot of people you resist or frown upon it. But today on Abounding Grace we’ll learn that God sometimes brings the winds of change into our lives to shake things up and push us in another direction. Sure it’s not comfortable, and often hurts. But as we gain God’s perspective on it all, it makes it much easier to go with the program. To suppo...

We’re at the tail-end of a study in Acts called, Be the Church. So often in our lives God is preparing us for what’s up ahead. That trial you’re going through right now, could very well be part of the preparation process. And here in Acts chapter 26 we see God doing that for the apostle Paul. We need to learn to submit and obey, trusting the Lord along the way. To support this ministry financially...

We’re in a series called, Be the Church! It’s a study in Acts, from pastor Ed Taylor. And today we come back to chapter 26, where Paul is sharing some of his testimony. Before he came to Christ he was a religious man. Which raises the question, can you be unsaved, and yet do a lot of good things and involved in religious activities? Absolutely! And Saul of Tarsus, later to be known as Paul, is a c...
