1 Kings 16:29-22:40 . A sad story tonight. It is sad because it is a story of departure from God to a new level. A key statement among the kings of Israel is that no longer when a new king is introduced did they do evil like Jeroboam, now you will see that they did evil like Ahab who went much further…

Today we resolve conflicts in the bible. How do we work through the challenge of Christ with the challenge of life? This passage presents the concern at hand. Jesus is doing an ordinary thing - walking to Jerusalem and this seems to forfeit the extraordinary thing of Conversions and miracles. But the…

The prophet Elijah had a moment of losing faith when he thought his whole world was falling apart. God restores Elijah’s faith; God can restore our faith too.

Be careful what we say. We can unintentionally be like Jezebel as we hear what God has done in other people’s…

1 After many days the word of the Lord came to Elijah, in the third year of the drought, saying, “Go, present yourself to Ahab; I will send rain on the earth.” 2 So Elijah went to present himself to Ahab. The famine was severe in Samaria. 45 In a little while the heavens grew black with clouds and wind;…

I have made the statement over this past year that “I would rather take a decade of 2020 over six months of 2019”.
