There are trends all around us that present challenges to the church and its mission. We have no reason to believe these trends will lessen anytime soon. The result of all of this, can be great discouragement of heart. King David who was familiar with discouragement, has a great word of encouragement for us living today. Join us as we look at Psalm 11 for strength to face the future.

A study in Deuteronomy 26-27 from our Midweek Service at Harvest Fellowship with Pastor Paul Mowery.

Revelation 9:13-21

The Sixth Trumpet

During times of disaster we are prone to believe that the disaster is proof that God does not care. During the time of the Tribulation period the world will suffer six major plagues. The reason for the plagues isn’t that God is finished with man, but rather He is longing for man to turn. Join us as we look at God’s final attempt to bring men to repentance.

Revelation 9:1-12

The Purpose of Great Tribulation

We have been conditioned to believe that the 1260 days of great tribulation is God judging the world. But what we discover as we read chapter nine of Revelation is something entirely different.

We will also discover that for the child of God we have been given a wonderful promise to be kept from this hour of wrath.

The Problem with Lukewarm Christianity

We come to the seventh and final church of Revelation. The Laodicean Church is the only church that Christ had nothing good to say about. The problem was the absence of passion for Christ. This Church provides a wakeup call for us in the church today. We need to ask ourselves was there ever a time where we were more passionate about the things of Christ than we are today? If the answer is yes, then we are headed into troubled waters. Please join us today as Christ gives us wise counsel to conquer lukewarmness.
