September 25, 2026 Signs, Wonders, and a Fresh Burden for the Lost Join me as we pray from Acts 4 A few days ago I was reading John chapter 3, where Nicodemus, a Pharisee, came to Jesus.

The Lord Will Come Like Rain
The Lord is waiting for the latter rain, that big shower that comes just before the harvest to push the crop to completion. When the fruit of the earth, the harvest of souls, is brought to the barn, then the farmer will come for His crop.
Happy 250, America!
250 years of America! What a great place and time to be alive. We are privileged to be here. We are purposed to be here. Let's do our part.
Pray for One Another
Don’t let condemnation or shame keep you away from God’s promise. It may help to share with someone you trust and let them pray with you. Remember the goal: God wants you whole, inside and out.
Why Do We Anoint with Oil?
