Faith vs Reason or Faith and Reason

October 14, 2018 04:00 - 1 hour - 27.7 MB

Faith vs reason.  It is a hot debate these days.  What if in reality we should be looking at it as Faith and Reason.  The reality is that Faith and Reason work quite well together when seeking answers to life's biggest questions. Listen in to be challenged in your faith and your reason as well as being challenged to give the Bible a chance when it comes to your search for the answers to life's biggest questions.

The where and when of our trek

October 07, 2018 04:00 - 51 minutes - 23.7 MB

As we look forward to our plan to read through the bible in two years beginning in January, we want to do some prep work. No one would just travel across the world for a trek without making adequate preparations so why would we think that a trek through the Bible in two years wouldn't require some preparation as well. In this message we begin the preparations for our journey through the Bible which will begin in January of 2019.

A proper response

September 30, 2018 04:00 - 47 minutes - 21.6 MB

What do you do with a letter? Do we even receive letters anymore? In days gone by if you received a letter from a friend you would read it and reread it. You would go to great lengths to understand what they were saying and even try to figure out what they may have been thinking. You would have responded back to them as well. What do we do with the letters from Jesus in Revelation? What do we do with God's communication to us as found in the Bible? Listen in to this message to find tha...

A new name

September 23, 2018 04:00 - 46 minutes - 21.3 MB

Our past. Our reputation. Our name. All of these things identify us. Sometimes this is a positive thing but too often we are desperately trying to rid ourselves of our past or the reputation we have built for ourselves. We really want to be know for who we truly are. The person on the inside that no one else sees. There is good news. If we walk a life of obedience to Jesus, we will get this wish when we cross into heaven. In this message we look at Jesus promise of a new name to those...

Training to reign

September 16, 2018 04:00 - 53 minutes - 24.5 MB

Have you ever wondered what we will do in heaven? In this message we will take a look at God's plan for mankind from the beginning and how he is going to restore that original plan throughout eternity. We will also see that we are in training while on this earth for what God has planned for us in eternity. Listen in and be encouraged.

Life giving food - Cradle to grave security and beyond

September 09, 2018 04:00 - 53 minutes - 24.4 MB

We are all looking for paradise. We are all looking for ways to extend life. We are looking ways to make life better for ourselves and long for life free of evil and difficulties. What if there was a way to have all of this and more. In this message we see that Jesus promised such things to those who would follow after Him. Listen in and find out that you can live eternally in paradise and be sustained in this life by what God has to offer you.

Acknowledging, interceding, and wearing the proper clothes

August 12, 2018 04:00 - 53 minutes - 24.6 MB

As Christians we love the promises of God. But, do we realize that many promises have conditions on them? In this message we continue to look at the promises that are found in Jesus' letters to the seven churches which are found in Revelation. Are we acknowledging Jesus before men or are we disowning Him? This is a very important question as the answer determines Jesus response in regards to us. Are we wearing the proper clothes - clothes fit for heaven? How does one get these clothes? ...

Hearing and overcoming

August 05, 2018 04:00 - 54 minutes - 24.9 MB

God is speaking but are we listening. Really. God is trying to get our attention in so many ways, yet we too often fail to hear what He is saying. In this message we are challenged to really listen to what God is telling and to walk in such a way that we will reap the blessings that come along with hearing and obeying.

Strong

July 29, 2018 04:00 - 42 minutes - 19.5 MB

We are all in a race and every race has a beginning and an end. This race is not a foot race or a bike race. It is a spiritual race. Where are you at in your race? We all need to start by coming the Jesus for forgiveness and yielding our lives to Him. This is only the beginning. We must be steadfast and diligent in order to finish the race given to us. Listen to this message to find out what it means to start and finish this spiritual race as well as how to run it effectively.

Hot or cold, not lukewarm

July 08, 2018 04:00 - 45 minutes - 21.1 MB

Some things were meant to be hot, like coffee. Some of you may disagree but coffee is predominately drunk hot. Christianity is the same. Christians are supposed to be hot. Jesus said he wants us to be hot but if not hot then cold. What He can't stand is lukewarm. Listen in and see what Jesus has to say about lukewarm Christians.

An open door

July 01, 2018 04:00 - 47 minutes - 21.9 MB

Is there a door or a vault that when sealed shut, is impossible to open unless you have the code? How about a door that is open which is impossible to shut. In our world, such things don't exist. It is just a matter of time until someone cracks the safe or forces the door shut. But when it comes to spiritual things, God opens and shuts doors, spiritually speaking, and when He does, they can't be opened or closed by anyone or anything other than him. In this message we look at the stateme...

Fatherhood is leadership

June 17, 2018 04:00 - 38 minutes - 17.8 MB

Men often wonder what being a father is all about. Fatherhood is leadership. We are called of God to lead our chilldren and to lead our wives. What does it take to be a good leader? In this message we look to answer this question and others regarding leadership.

Attacks against the true move of God

June 10, 2018 04:00 - 57 minutes - 26.7 MB

Did you know that God has a plan for your life? Your family? Your church? It is a powerful plan, one that will further His kingdom. He has gone to great lengths to prepare you for plan and equip you to successfully accomplish it. Yet, we have an enemy, Satan, who is dedicated to thwarting God's plan anywhere it shows up. In this message we look at the attacks that come against those who are walking in true spiritual authority and leadership from Jesus' letter to the church of Thyatira. ...

Standing against sin like Jesus would

May 20, 2018 04:00 - 54 minutes - 25.3 MB

We have heard the statement: Love the sinner, yet hate the sin. How does one do such a thing? Is it even possible? Is is something that Christians should strive for or is it merely a statement made up by men? In this message we see that we are called as followers of Jesus to stand against sin with a heart of love and compassion like Jesus did while on this earth. It is never easy to stand against sin in our own lives or in the lives of others. Thankfully we can find encouragement from J...

You can trust Him

May 06, 2018 04:00 - 45 minutes - 20.9 MB

We don't write letters very often these days nor do we receive them. Even rarer is a handwritten letter. In days gone by, letters were often the only form of communication available. Even Jesus saw to it that letters from Him were given to His people. In this message we take an introductory look at the letters Jesus communicated to 7 different churches and see the importance of us looking for personal instruction, correction, and encouragement in them. Listen in and prepare yourself to r...

Spiritual Navigation

April 29, 2018 04:00 - 55 minutes - 25.2 MB

We have many "tools" to use when we want to navigate to a specific location. We use GPS units and maps in our cars. We use compasses and maps for orienteering. We even have the stars, specifically the North Star, that will point us to true North. God had also given a way to successfully Navigate our way to eternity in Heaven with Him. It comes through obedience. In this message we clearly see that obedience is equated with truly loving God and truly loving Jesus. Listen in and be chall...

A valid testimony

April 22, 2018 04:00 - 54 minutes - 24.9 MB

A paradox - something that doesn't seem to make sense or or seems contradictory. A paradox in the Bible often contains deep and encouraging truth when we take the time to look deeper. In this message we look at such a paradox - Jesus quieting demons becasue they knew who He was. We find that the cause of Christ is not always served by those who merely state truths but by those who state truth that they know and understand experientially. Listen in and be both encouraged and challenged in ...
