the roles of men and women in the church:

This Message focuses on Paul's Charge to Timothy to tell Certain People to quit Teaching Different Doctrine.  As Christians we must Place our focus on the Essentials: 1 Timothy 1:1-4

1 Timothy 1:5-11 The Apostle Paul taught about Certain Men Swerving from the Faith and Teaching a Different Doctrine. How do we swerve in our Faith. We swerve when we lose our focus. When we are captivated by someone for something else.  

1 Timothy 1:5-11 The Apostle Paul taught about Certain Men Swerving from the Faith and Teaching a Different Doctrine. How do we swerve in our Faith. We swerve when we lose our focus. When we are captivated by someone for something else.  

There are two metaphors Paul uses in this section when it comes to our faith. Warfare and Shipwreck.  How you handle warfare determines if you will dock or shipwreck. As a follower of Jesus, you must be a good soldier and a good captain. 

After the 2024 Elections, many thought it was the end of our country. Fear was ramped. Social media was filled with hatred towards the candidates they did not like. How should Christians respond? We are to Pray for them, and those in high positions of authority. Why? God's desire is that all may come to repentance and be saved.  

What is the role of the man in the church? What about the women? Is this a temporary or a timeless role? Throughout history this has been a sensitive and controversial subject.  The important question is what does the Bible say? That is the basis of this teaching. 

Elders are Called to Lead the church. What are the most important traits or skills one needs to have to become an overseer? Well. it is not skill, occupation, or business background, it is character. 

Today, we unpack the Office of a Deacon. We also explore what that looks like practically for those who never take on the Office of a Deacon.  

What are the Two Pillars of the Church? They revolve around two areas. Our Conduct and our Confession. 

The Roles of the Christian Household was Revolutionary when it was First Instituted back during the times of the New Testament.  It leveled the playing field, and held everyone accountable in a patristic culture. Today, the roles are questioned, especially the idea of submission by the wife.  The focus is explaining how having roles bring harmony to the home.

Knowing who You ARE in Christ is the most important thing in your life. 

There are many Christians today that make you feel like you are missing something spiritually. They make you feel like they are at a higher spiritual level.  But is this true? This message discusses this and correlates this to what was happening to the young Christians at Colossians church who were confronted with false teachers who claimed secret knowledge.

The First Chapter of Daniel Reveals the Babylonians Attempt to Recondition a Teenaged Daniel and his Three Companions from the Exile. Though Daniel is Willing to Take a Name Change and Learn the Arts of Divination; He takes a Stand and Draws the Line when it Comes to Defiling Himself with the Kings Food.  

 The Lord Speaks to Us in Various Ways. The Bible. Through the Inner Voice. Through Visions. Through Dreams. In this Message we Explore Dreams, and how the Lord uses them to Reveal Himself to not only God's People, but with People who are Not. We also discuss the features of dreams, including description, interpretation, and the connection of dreams with symbols. 

There are three Parts of a Dream that are Essential. The Revelation. This is God's Perfect Communication. Actually being able to Describe Your Dreams. Best to Write Down. Secondly, the Actual Interpretation. This requires God to Provide the Interporetation. However, the Human Element can make interpretation wrong.  Lastly, the Application. How do You Apply this in Your Life.  In this phase Nebuchadnezzar Got it Wrong. Since there is a Human Element, so can We. 

 Pride Keeps us from God. Pride Keeps us from Growing Spiritually. Pride Keeps us from God's Blessings. Sometimes one's pride is so thick, the ONLY Way the Lord can Penetrate it is to Scare someone in a Dream. In Chapter 5, God has had Enough! He sends a Watcher to Issue a Decree from Heaven! 

  The Writing on the Wall is a Phrase coined from Daniel 5. It is a term that is Predictive, after making many bad decisions. Eventually, everyone can see this won't End Well.  In Such was the case for Belshazzar, King of Babylon.   

What is the Difference between Jealousy and Envy? How does this factor into the the story of Daniel and the Lion's Den? This will be the focus. 

   Daniel has a Bad Dream, one that's frightening. Four Beasts, the Last One Very Terrifying. However,  the Lord Uses Dreams to Communicate with Us. This is important NOT only for Daniel, this is also for Us. We cannot forget that in the end, God's Kingdom will be the Last One Standing.

  Coming this Week, March 24th 

 The Western Mindset dismisses angels, spirits, the devil and the supernatural. We live in a so called age of "Enlightenment." Even within the church, some denoinations dismiss the supernatural. However, the Biblical Worldview paints a different picture. Not only are there angels and spirits, but there are also regional principalities. In this talk, we get a taste that reveals how the spiritual realm influences the political realm.   

 The Battle between the North and Southern Kingdoms of Syria and Egypt, will ultimately produce Antiochus Epiphanies, who will be a foreshadow of the antichrist. He is the first person identified as the abomination  of Desolation. 

 When it is All Said and Done, there will be only one kingdom Standing. The Day of the Lord and God's People.. This message discusses the second coming / Day of the Lord.

God wants His people to take a stand. However, often, we want to give God a part of us, yet we want a part of what the world has to offer us.

in this talk, we explore the theme and character in the first two chapter. In doing so, we reflect on whether God works in the lives of those who have no knowledge or desire to know Him. 

Have you ever been overlooked when you deserved a promotion? Have you ever reached a point in your life where you have to make a decision but you're not sure if it is the right or wrong thing to do? There comes a point where you have reached a crossroads in your life and you have to choose.

In this Talk, Pastor Kene focuses on how God's providence and human pride intersects in the story of Esther and in our own lives. In the end, God can work through anything.

The seventh chapter of Haman is a defining one because it focuses on identity. Esther had experienced hiding her identity, having her identity taken, and had to come to a point to were she would reveal her true identity.

Have you ever had your plans backfire, even though they were brilliant and thought out? At times like that you wonder if it is a coincidence or the fate of God. 

The message focuses on how God works thru Esther and Mordecai to grant the Jewish nation the ability to defend themselves. In the process, we learn that God is not silent; instead He is faithful to His promises. The same is true in our lives.

The Priority of Jesus was not to heal and meet physical needs. Find out his real priority

Often, we think we know what's best for our life. This story makes us realize we need to dig deeper

People know many traits about Jesus. Compassion. Forgiver. Lover.  But what makes him angry? 

Jesus always wants to stretch us. There are seasons in life where he wants us to go to the other side, where the trials of life can rock our faith.  In such cases, Jesus wants us to hold on to the boat. 

He couldn't escape his demons until Jesus came to the rescue. This story in Mark five is filled with Jesus, Surprising Prayer Requests, and of course, many demons.

We've all been told to wash our hands and use soap at some point in our life from our parents and educators. However, in this talk, the religious leaders equate improper washing to be an offense against God. Listen to find our more, 

In this message Jesus teaches his disciples and us a very important lesson in Divine Math. 

The supernatural rational. He can do more 

The Transfiguration is an Over-the-Top Story that Communicates a very important lesson. Whoever you compare to Jesus, in the end he will be the last man standing. Soon.

There comes a point where the Heart is torn between the Beautiful Treasures of Earth and the eternal ones of Heaven. In this talk, we will explore which one is truly Good. 

When Jesus overthrew the tables of the money changers and the stools of those who sold pigeons, he illustrated the importance of proper worship in God's house.  A good question for us simply, "What is it that Hinders our worship? What is it that Jesus needs to overthrow? Soon

When  you  have  a  major  decsion  to  make,  that  involves  pressure.  Who  will  you  trust?  God  or  man?  Who  will  be  your  judge?
