Look at the world’s current state with the war in Ukraine, rumors of wars, Covid-19, and much more, it seems that there would be a push for unity.

Weekly Spotlight: Salvation: It Belongs To God 26.02.2022 12:31
The notion that grace is just grace is vague and does not have the power to save. Many believe in grace and they believe in a god but not the God of all grace. The grace and gods of their hope do not have the gracious saving power to vindicate, forgive, nor bring victory and salvation to the lives of their followers. There is even a form of the “Christian God” that some “professing believers” put...

Weekly Spotlight: Victory It Belongs To God 25.08.2021 10:10
Look, let’s be honest, there will always be men and women who equate our victory that we have as believers in God through Jesus Christ as a life that is winning.

The more we mature in Christ through the...
Weekly Spotlight: We Need To Pray 19.07.2021 12:32
It seems that we live in a society that is growing more and more anti-Christian by the day. A society, which declares right wrong and wrong right.

Paul, in 1 Timothy 2:1-4, deals with one area where we can all impa...

Weekly Spotlight: Vengeance: It Belongs To God 06.06.2021 8:59
Have you ever wanted to "get even" with those in whom you feel have wronged you? Like many others, you are not alone.
