Samson had a problem. He continuously turned his strengths into his weakness. Which ultimately led to his capture and the gouging out of his eyes. Samson could not afford to reveal his weakness, but he did. We are no different.   Join us this episode to learn about Samson and look at him as a cautionary tale. As the scripture states, "Therefore let anyone who thinks that he stands take heed lest h...

Our command is to l ove as our neighbor as ourselves . But here's the catch, we don't get to pick our neighbor (Luke 10:25-37).   As this is our command, here are the three things we need in order to love our neighbor. Ask for a burden. Realize the urgency. Must be willing.   We can never get to point of being The Good Samaritan if we don't care about others. Join us this episode as we learn what...

Join us this episode as we continue to explore how Elijah prayed. We've established that in order for our prayers to be effective, we must learn how to pray God's way.

We want God to answer our prayers (every time), but are we willing to pay the pr...

A relationship with Jesus is a relationship that you can't keep a secret. Jesus requires that He goes with you everywhere that you go. This is not up for debate. There's a good reason though. We can't keep him a secret because society needs Him. Society needs Jesus, and we are the ones who must carry His message to all people, in all communities (Matthew 28: 19-20). Yes, even the ones you look dow...

What does it mean to be a servant of Jesus, and are you willing to do what's necessary to be His servant? Being a servant of Jesus will require our most prized possession, our will. When the Lord (or His servant) approaches you, will you respond like Mary by saying, I am the Lord's servant, and I am willing to accept whatever He wants (Luke 1:38) or will you walk away like many others? For more in...

The Bible, though beautiful, can be very offensive to those who take issue with submitting to Its authority.

Join us this episode as we explore what it means to truly submit to scripture while not being offended in the process. For more information about A Word of Light M...

When we surrender our lives to Jesus, He wants all of us. Not a portion…all. If we are to have a successful walk with Him, we have to come clean.   Note: Our deepest apologies: there were some technical difficulties which resulted in the rest of the audio being unusable. We pray that the portion we captured is able to be a blessing to you and your family.   For more information about A Word of Lig...

There's an adage about "sticks and stones." Though this may sound profitable on its surface, we can't afford to ignore that words can direct us into bondage or freedom. While action does have to be attached to our confession, speaking is the first step. Please don't allow your own words to prevent you from experiencing freedom and peace in Jesus Christ   For more information about A Word of Light...

Have you ever placed a leaf or a stick on a calm body of water? Have you watched the object(s) for a while only to notice that the object(s) have not moved? What would happen if you decided to run errands? Upon return, you will undoubtedly notice that those objects have since drifted far into the middle of this body of water; the drift was gradual. The same happens with our faith when we disconnec...

Join us as we discuss what it means to follow Jesus and whether or not there have been benefits. Whenever we follow someone, we should always assess if following them is truly worth it. Is Jesus worth your follow?

Jesus faced a difficult choice; endure excruciating pain and death for the salvation of mankind, or walk away and disobey God, the Father. We all know what path Jesus chose and we forever grateful that He made that choice. We are forever grateful that not only did Jesus not run away from the challenges He faced, but when He encountered those challenges, He didn't flinch. -- Stay Connected IG: @awo...
