The laws of God decree that those who refuse to forgive enter their own private torture chamber, sentencing themselves to a lifetime of needless pain. John MacArthur says, “Unforgiveness is a toxin. It poisons the heart and mind with bitterness, distorting one’s whole perspective on life. Anger, resentment, and sorrow begin to overshadow and overwhelm the unforgiving person – a kind of soul-pollut...

What Mountain in your life needs to move? We have seen God answer prayer, and respond to our faith so many times. What is important to you that God do, but is impossible for humanity to accomplish? If you are in an impossible situation - it could be JUST THE THING God has orchestrated in your life to increase your faith! FAITH isn’t a FEELING, FAITH is a KNOWING! Some of us struggle with this. Our...

Why is there such a discrepancy between our understanding of forgiveness and our willingness to grant it to others? Occasionally, it’s a major crisis that forces us to choose between forgiveness and unforgiveness (i.e. an unfaithful spouse, an unwanted divorce, an unfair termination from your job, sexual abuse you experienced as a child, a slanderous rumor that has cost you your reputation). But m...

This illustration shows us how highlighters can be a good study tool. We can highlight God's Word by memorizing scriptures and hiding His Word in our hearts, so we won't sin. His Word gives us a lamp and a light to guide us in the right direction.

There is suffering in obeying God, but it does not compare with the blessings of obedience! Obedience is not obedience until we have completed all that we have been told to do. Our faith increases as our obedience continues. With each step of obedience comes a new level of faith. We can learn how to overcome sin and have a lifestyle that pleases God when we understand the blessing of obedience to...

Heaven is Near - Philippians 3:20-21 “Our citizenship is in heaven, and from it we await a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ, 21who will transform our lowly body to be like his glorious body, by the power that enables him even to subject all things to himself.” Heaven is Near, we should make sure our faith is in place and we are ready. Soon this life will be ended and eternity with Jesus will begin! L...

This lesson is about how God cares about the little things. He is always there to help us even when we think it's too small for Him. An iron axe head floating is not natural. God stepped in and did the supernatural so the man could return the axe he had borrowed.

This illustration shows us how easy it is to break a crayon and how being a bully breaks people. However, we are taught to love everyone. Only God's love can heal and mend the hearts of broken people. So always be kind so you aren't breaking people.

We must be prepared as we walk in the way of obedience. How can we grow spiritually? In this service we cover the Biblical way to prepare ourselves spiritually. Settle it in your heart that there will be hardships in serving the Lord. We do not need to look for opportunities to suffer. But as we live obedient to God they will present themselves. Thank you for joining us for our Midweek Bible Study...

It is not a question of whether or not you will fall, the only question is when you will fall? Notice that according to Proverbs 24:16, if you are a just person, you get back up. You’re going to fall, you’re going to mess up, make mistakes, and blow it big time! What you need to know is that your failure is not final! Trust God. Pray every day. Seek after His guidance and wisdom. The Bible tells u...

The Potter is still working today. Over fifteen times in the Old Testament the term “out of their hands” or “out of the hand” is used and this is very important. If somebody can be taken out of somebody’s hand or they can be delivered out of somebody’s hand according to the scriptures, I want to know why. It matters because of what we read in the Bible regarding the hands of the potter. The script...

What a mighty God we serve, His name is Jesus! This Sunday we continue our series encouraging everyone to "BE READY". - Revelation 20:12 And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works. Please don't miss thi...

This object lesson reminds us that our faith will be tested, but we do not have to be unprepared!! We already have all the answers to this test!!

As believers we need to battle against the foe of pride rather than battle for our rights or privileges. We waste so much time defending ourselves. In tonight's study we will cover our secret weapon of Humility and how it is directly tied to our Obedience to God's Word. We would love for you to consider joining us in person if you are able, and we are very glad that you are gathering with us onlin...

God is doing incredible things in our church and in our community! What an exciting time to be alive. Today we will be discussing SIGNS. 1 out of every 30 verses in the Bible mentions the subject of the end of time or of Christ’s return to earth. So yeah, it’s kind of important to understand! The proper attitude towards the signs we see is to BE READY for Jesus to return! Please don't miss this ex...

This kids lesson and illustration is a breakdown of the pieces of the Armor of God and why we need EVERY piece.

In this Bible study we are discussing the book of Jude. In these last days we are not only facing a struggle outside of the church, but we have to be spiritually minded and fight the good fight of faith in our own lives and even in the church. We must be on guard that we are not pulled away from God by our own lusts and desires...this takes faith and courage. We would love for you to consider join...

Join us for this lesson about how we should pray. We use a sandwich to help us remember the parts of prayer.

Join us for a lesson about how if God can use a donkey in a miraculous way, He can use YOU to do miracles also.

This illustration shows that when we have bad things in our heart they come out and are nasty. We need to guard our hearts and not let nasty stuff get in. Jesus wants us to have pure and clean hearts. We have to be careful what we allow into our hearts.
