"I want to know Christ and the power of His resurrection...." - Phil 3:10 If I asked you why God made you, what would you say? Is it that you might serve others, or is it that you might give your life in working for God?

It has been said, "You can live a few days without water, but you can't begin to live without hope." Hope has been illusive to many in recent days. So, the greatest gift anyone can give you is hope! This gift is not in the form of a payment from the government or the promise of a politician; it comes from God alone!

"Greater love has no one than this, that one lays down his or her life for someone else." -Jesus Human relationships need a lot of sowing, watering and cultivating. Don't expect magic on Valentine's Day if you have not prepared the soil. Jesus said that our hearts are like soil, and what we plant won't grow unless the soil is well prepared and the conditions are right. In interpersonal relationships, two hearts have to be prepared if Valentine's Day is going to be a success.

Love is one of the central themes in the Bible. From the first chapters of Genesis to the concluding verses of Revelation, God ’s love for humanity, as well as the love between individuals, is highlighted throughout the Scriptures. The Bible presents love not just as an emotion but as an action and a commitment. The Bible speaks about love in various forms, from the unconditional love of God to the romantic love between spouses. When it comes to married love, the Bible em

Reasons I'm prolife I'm prolife because my family is prolife. If my ancestors...every one of them were not prolife, I wouldn't be here. If my children weren't prolife, I wouldn't have any grandchildren. If my neighbors weren't prolife, they wouldn't be here. This is pretty simple. So, everyone alive makes me thankful for the prolife movement. That makes it obvious that we live among a lot of prolife people. I am prolife because Abortion is a Tragic Choice. Abortion end

Gluttony: Overindulgence or overconsumption of food or drink. Greed: Excessive desire for material wealth or possessions. Sloth: Laziness, avoidance of work or duty.

I thought I'd send the outline for Sunday to folks so you can study ahead. Welcome to Worship @ Faith Fellowship on 1/11/26 Message: Dealing with Anger -various Scriptures I. The Problem of Anger James 1:19–20 “Everyone should be quick to listen, slow to speak and slow to become angry, for man’s anger does not bring about the righteous life that God desires” II. Understanding Anger A. Anger as a physical response - Proverbs 29:22 “An angry man stirs up dissension,

Isaiah 43:19 “See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland.” A new year doesn’t magically erase the wilderness seasons we’ve walked through. But God’s promise in Isaiah is not about our circumstances changing first—it’s about His presence breaking in with newness, direction, and hope. God specializes in: Making paths where none existed Bringing life to dry places Renewing hearts that

“Thanks be to God for His indescribable gift!” – 2 Corinthians 9:15 Christmas gifts come in all sorts of wrappings, but the greatest gifts aren’t wrapped in paper or placed under a tree. They were given over 2,000 years ago in the person of Jesus Christ — gifts that never fade, break, or lose value. When you receive Christ, you get a great number of other wonderful gifts.

"Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you." — Ephesians 4:32 Kindness is more than polite words or gentle actions—it is the overflow of a heart transformed by God’s love. When we show kindness, we reflect the very character of Christ, who reached out to the broken, welcomed the outcast, and forgave even those who betrayed Him. In a world often marked by harshness and division, kindness becomes a radical act of faith.

Scripture “Be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving each other, just as in Christ God forgave you.” — Ephesians 4:32 “Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins.” — 1 Peter 4:8 It's Friday Early Devotion As a believer, forgiveness is a vital part of our spiritual growth. When we forgive others, we open our hearts to receive God’s forgiveness and healing. Holding onto grudges or bitterness only hinders us, while letting go and

Today I would like to give you 10 important ways to pass on your Christian faith, including: Living it authentically, sharing it intentionally, and weaving it into everyday life through family, community, and worship practices. 10 Practical Ways to Pass on Your Faith 1st.

“Bear each other’s burdens, and in this way you will fulfill the law of Christ.” (Galatians 6:2) Pray for Each Other: Lift up the needs of others before God, standing in the gap when they feel weak or weary. “Therefore, confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed.” (James 5:16) Encourage and Build Up: Share verses of hope and comfort that remind them of God’s promises and presence. “Therefore encourage one another and build each other

In one of our closet walls in our first home, we had a growth chart for our children. Every year just before Christmas we would mark down how much our children had grown that year. Grandparents were always anxious to know how big the children were getting when we sent our Christmas letter. Every year our children's report cards would reflect their growth in knowledge. Some growth is fairly easy to measure, but, spiritual growth is a bit more tricky. So, how do we measur

(That is the question I will ask you next week in my message.) Psalm 107:8-9 "Let them give thanks to the LORD for His unfailing love and His wonderful deeds for mankind, for He satisfies the thirsty and fills the hungry with good things." Does it ever seem a little much to you that God made the Israelites wander in the wilderness for 40 years because they grumbled? My kids maybe spent 30 minutes in their rooms for griping, but 40 years? Now, that's pretty severe discipline!

Nehemiah 8:4 "And Ezra the scribe stood upon a pulpit of wood, which they had made for the purpose ." ( This allowed him to be seen and heard by the large assembly gathered in Jerusalem after the return from exile.) For several years I used a music stand for a pulpit, because I could raise it to where I could read Scripture at my level. Recently I have used our church pulpit with a box under it to raise it up. That box was not good enough for Jack Novak, so, he built a I

Good morning Lord. We pray for courage and witness for those going through persecution because of their Christian faith. May they stand firm against threats and to share their faith boldly, as did Paul and Silas. We ask for wisdom, and grace to love their enemies and to reflect Christ. May the Holy Spirit give them the right words to say when brought before the authorities. Amen. (About midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God, and the prisoners wer

Hiding God's Word in our heart must become a priority in our lives. Studying Bible Hub I found several reasons to memorize Scripture. I pray this will be a blessing to you. 1. The Bible tell us to Treasure God’s Word The Bible tells us in Deuteronomy 6:6-9 in Moses words, “These words I am commanding you today are to be upon your hearts. You shall teach them diligently to your children and speak of them when you sit at home, when you walk along the road, when you lie down
