by Ministry Support on October 30th, 2022
“Jesus spoke to the people once more and said, ‘I am the light of the world. If you follow me, you won’t have to walk in darkness, because you will have the light that leads to life.’” - John 8:12  The thing about light is that it can be harnessed as a source of power.

Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we can ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us. - Ephesians 3:20   Genesis 19 tells us about Lot’s wife. As we looked at yesterday, this was a woman whose name was not even identified in the Bible. She was simply known for the struggles she had rather than the good she had done. To her demise, she was ultimately found...  Read More

Take Heart, I Have Overcome
by Ministry Support on March 2nd, 2022
“I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” - John 16:33  Psalm 37:5 tells us to commit our ways to God. Trust Him, and He will act. As important as trust is, it is made real during times of struggle and difficulty. It is easy to trust during times of comfort. It is easy to obey the voice of the L...  Read More

by Ministry Support on November 4th, 2020
He said to me, ‘It is your son Solomon who shall build my house and my courts, for I have chosen him to be a son to me, and I will be a father to him. – 1 Chronicles 28:6  When trying to discover God’s will, sometimes what we want and what God wills are in conflict.

A Counter-Cultural Decision
by Ministry Support on August 11th, 2020
“For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways,” declares the Lord. “As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts.” (Isaiah 55:8-9)  When the week of triumph and spiritual success started when Jesus rode a donkey into Jerusalem, we see that we must choose what matters to God over and against what matters to...  Read More
