The Empowering Effect of Encouragement, Part 2 16.07.2024

Haggai delivered a prophetic message to the despondent, dispirited, and distracted people, temporarily reviving their hopes.

Finding Hope and Comfort in Hard Times, Part 2 12.07.2024

When trials and suffering come, where do we turn? We ought to turn to Godthe God of all comfort. Suffering in this life is inevitable. David knew that. He wrote some of his psalms about it.

Encouraging People to Carry On 10.07.2024

aul described his work among the Thessalonians as "encouraging, comforting, and urging you to live lives worthy of God." But Paul and his colleagues also needed encouragement themselves. In fact, everyone could use encouragement! So how do we encourage people who desperately need it, and how do we remain encouraged and hopeful in our own lives? Stuart, citing Scripture as always, shows us the way....

He Promised Me, Part 2 09.07.2024

Faith Requires More than a Little Effort 05.07.2024

Growing Weary and Losing Heart 04.07.2024

Various metaphors have been used to describe the Christian life.

Faith, Hope and Patience 02.07.2024

It’s easy to place your faith in people, parties, and programs. But it’s impossible for all those things to sustain and uphold your heart.

In this message, Stuart Briscoe opens Scripture to reveal the character of our promise-keeping God. He is true, He...

The Faith We Profess 01.07.2024

Whom we confess and the faith we profess are both translations of the Greek word homologia, which is defined as an act of proclamation in which the concrete relation of man to Jesus is expressed in binding and valid form. Jesus expressed the importance of such a homologia (Matthew 10:32), and Hebrews confirmed it. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/508/29

Be Wise About the Word of God, Part 2 25.06.2024

Blessed Are the Pure in Heart 19.06.2024

Every year the news shows shocking scenes of houses washed away in mudslides, hurricanes, or floods. No matter how grand or beautiful the homes might have been, they end up in rubble when strong storms hit because they weren't built on solid ground. Life is the same way. Storms like job losses, health problems, or broken relationships can sweep you away unless your foundation is built on something...
