The influence of what we are is deeper than what we do. We are called to be the salt of the earth and the light of the world in a decaying dark environment. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/508/29?v=20251111

A parable is defined as an earthly story with a heavenly meaning. And the parable of the prodigal son found in Luke 15 may be one of the most famous parables in Scripture. The story of the prodigal son is about God losing something very precious and sending His son, Jesus, to get it back. This is God’s world, and He wants it back!

Every day we fight battles: teaching our kids to clean up their toys, dealing with difficult co-workers or family members, getting society to clean up the environment. But even though these battles are big, there is an even bigger war going on—a spiritual one. While we know that God is the ultimate victor, we live every day surrounded by Satan’s armies. The judge and prophetess Deborah was surroun...

Have you ever felt wrongly judged? Rahab was someone who was judged for her outer appearance. A harlot, known for keeping brothels within Jericho, no one would have believed by simply looking at her that she was seeking God. Thankfully, God looks beyond what man sees to the desires of our hearts, and changes us from the inside out. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace....

When we think of someone with a good attitude, Abraham’s wife Sarah is probably not the first person who comes to mind. We might think of her arguments with Abraham, how she laughed at God’s good news, her harsh dealings with Hagar, how she lied to Pharaoh. But in 1 Peter 3, Peter commends Sarah as a model for all women for her “quiet and meek spirit.” What happened in Sarah’s life to turn this fe...

Jesus assumed that His disciples would faithfully fulfill the commission He had given them and that as a result there would be future generations of believers, including present day believers. So when He prayed for future believers His prayer included us! That He prayed for us is highly significant. What He prayed for us should be clearly understood.

When faced with a crisis do you find yourself prepared knowing where to turn, or do you panic and simply react? As Jesus faced the reality of the cross, He instinctively turned to His Father in prayer. Is prayer your first line of defense in a crisis? In this teaching, Stuart Briscoe looks to Jesus’ example to teach us about the comfort available to us through prayer. To support this ministry fina...

Dealing with grief and loss is something most people go through sometime in their lives. Trying to get through difficult situations on our own can leave us feeling hopeless and alone. The apostle Paul said, “We sorrow, but we do not sorrow as those who have no hope.” But is it possible for us to experience hope in the midst of grief?

Sometimes we try to understand how anything good can possibly come out of the bad things that happen to us. The disciples certainly felt like this when Jesus told them it was to their advantage that He would leave them via the cross. The advantage of which He spoke to them is to our advantage too. So we need to be clear about the promise He gave to them and to us. To support this ministry financia...

Jesus tells us not to be surprised when we face troubles, because the world around us loves the darkness rather than the light. He also tells us to step out of our comfort zone, thoroughly convinced of who He is, ready to respond differently than the world. In this message, Stuart Briscoe unpacks John 15 to show us how this kind of response is possible and how to find comfort through trials. To su...

Are you in a dead-end relationship? Disappointed because that “special person” doesn’t meet all of your needs? We hear about situations like these all the time. It’s clear we’re created as relational beings, so why do we struggle so much with relationships? In this message Stuart Briscoe teaches about the ultimate relationship that brings both comfort and meaning to our lives. To support this mini...

Have you ever experienced disappointed hope? To put all your trust in someone or something only to find they were untrustworthy—to be fooled and have your hope shattered. Maybe that’s why we tend to distrust rather than to trust. Jesus said, “Trust God, trust Me, don’t let your hearts be troubled.” But what does it mean to trust in God in the midst of things that are deeply troubling or discouragi...

Even when your theology aligns with the Bible and you recognize that sometimes the righteous are called to suffer, when pain and suffering come your way it can feel a bit like diving into cold water—it can take your breath away and test your faith. How do we cope while we wait for God to intervene in our painful circumstances? We can look to the story of Job to find answers. To support this minist...

Suffering can seem like an endless battle, because as soon as you get in it, you just want to get out. Hours, days, weeks, months, or even years can go by and you’re still asking, “How long, oh Lord?” So what do you do when you’re in a seemingly endless season of hardship? In this message, Jill shares how when we’re willing to wait out our seasons of suffering, God won’t let the time go to waste....

When trouble comes your way, are you quick to question it? Have you ever gone so far as to question God Himself? The world can tempt us into asking, How could a loving God let something so terrible happen? Have you ever found yourself pondering that question? Instead of questioning the character of God, Job willingly received suffering from God’s hands. But how was he able to accept the seemingly...
