Comfort in the Promised Presence of God

Date: February 15, 2015 | Speaker: Phil Pike

A child who awakens in a dark room in the middle of the night is often gripped with fear, yet all it takes to comfort him is the presence of his father or mother. The same darkness is still there, but the child’s heart is now at rest simply because he is not alone. As we walk through the dark seasons of life, we are easily filled with fear. The one thing that will bring true peace and comfort into those situations is knowing that Jesus has promised to always be with us to the very end of the world!

Spiritual Food

Date: January 5, 2014 | Speaker: Jon Stewart

A Spiritual Life requires Spiritual Food. As born again believers, we must nourish ourselves with Christ; He is the bread of life. Do you feel spiritually dry, or spiritually dead? Have you been eating at the table with Jesus; enjoying fellowship with Him? For the two on the road to Emmaus, it was once they sat down to fellowship with the stranger that they understood. Their eyes were opened when Jesus broke and shared the bread.

God Shining In Our Hearts

Date: September 8, 2013 | Speaker: Jon Stewart

Light radiates from a source, reflects off an object, and we observe the reflected light with our eyes. The very same principle is true for followers of Christ. We have observed God’s love in the face of Jesus Christ. A born again believer must radiate God’s love to the world around.

Do we have any right to withhold God’s Love from anyone?

“By this all people will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.” – John 13:35

To Live is Christ

Date: April 28, 2013 | Speaker: Phil Pike

What are you living for? It’s a simple question, yet how you answer it has profound implications. For the apostle Paul, the answer was unmistakable. He said, “For me to live is Christ!” Could your life’s statement be that clear; that there would be no need for additional words or further explanations? Is Christ the very purpose, priority, and passion of your existence?

Persevering When Life Doesn’t Make Sense

Date: August 15, 2010 | Speaker: Phil Pike

How is it that two people can go through a terrible hardship and one will come out the other side bitter, while one comes out better? How is it that the Apostle Paul wrote his most joyful letter while in chains as a prisoner? Are you facing hard times right now? Do you sometimes think that God is being unkind? If so, this series will help you learn to see life through God’s eyes, which makes all the difference in how we respond to life.

Protection from the Enemy

Date: February 1, 2009 | Speaker: Phil Pike

The Bible has given us everything we need to stand against Satan’s attacks… do you know how to use these spiritual weapons to protect yourself?
