How can we know if we are mature believers?  When His purpose is more important to us than our pain.  Some people won’t get involved in ministry because they know that they’re going to get hurt.  But Pastor Ford will explain today that we all must ask ourselves, is Calvary more important than our own personal comfort?

There is no such thing as coincidence with God.  Only providence.  Nothing is accidental.  Everything is Providential when it comes to the things that God allows to happen to His people. So, Pastor Ford will remind us today that it’s never too late to call on God to work through His providence on our behalf.

Today, Pastor Ford will help us identify some very practical ways we can tell if God has called us to a certain ministry, before we dive in headfirst to what we think we’ve been called to do.  We’ll learn how to discover our passions and priorities and identify our desire to glorify God, all while following His guidance.

Sometimes, when we’re taking care of God’s business and serving in ministry, we are hesitant to acknowledge the gifts of other people in our midst.  We see them as an intrusion against our own ministry, instead of an infusion of help from God. And instead of seeing them as a threat, Pastor Ford will encourage us to discover...

You may be going through a tremendous struggle right now, but as we begin to look at how there is purpose in our problems and pain, Pastor Ford will encourage us to not waste our sorrows. Instead, we should embrace them, realizing that God is up to something and is working in our lives.

And why is He doing that?   Because in the current shape we’re in, God won’t give us what He...

As we continue to look at how we should treat our brothers and sisters in Christ, we’re going to take a closer look at meekness. When someone is meek, it means that they have strength under control. Pastor Ford will explain that God delights in people who are meek. And God wants to use people in their meekness to restore the things...

Pastor Ford will remind us today that sometimes the solution to our problem is in our problem.  In other words, our deficiency—which is apparent to us in our problem—may be the provision for the sufficiency that God wants to provide for us.  But often, we can’t easily see the truth about our situation. So, we must...

What do you do when Jesus doesn’t do what you want, how you want and when you want? Today, Pastor Ford will point out that the mother we meet in Matthew 15 decided she was going to go beyond her expectation. She expected Jesus to help her, but He was silent in that moment. So, she began an exercise in faith by deciding to sit and wait...

Today, Pastor Ford will challenge us today to consider these questions—Can you worship Jesus, even when you don’t get what you want? Even if you don’t get the job, if the sickness isn’t healed, if you never get a husband, if you never get a wife, or if your children never come back from “the far country”? ...
