Karen Marsh taught on the things that come from the Word of God: Life, Healing, Peace . . . A wonderful picture of God's love for us. His Word is who He is, powerful, almighty & never changing!
Pastor Al sharing his testimony and teaching on the power of God in your life
Allowing God to work in your life takes commitment, surrender & obedience . . . How much do you want to give to the Lord?
To follow, serve & have intimacy with God you need to allow Him in to every area of your life. When you came to know the Lord as your personal savior you were given a measure of faith. Who took it? Did the things of life, the enemy steal your faith?
Everybody is seeking something for identity in life. For 48 years Pastor Al ran from God until he was left alone & everything was gone. At that point he fell to his knees on his living room floor and surrendered his life to Jesus Christ.
Faith comes by hearing and hearing by the Word of God (Romans 10:17). When life gets busy and the things of the world draw you away, the devil will steal the seed planted in you. For the backslider, who has walked away from God - if you gone so far away from Him, if you still need the seed restored, if you need the fear of God, ask Him. The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom (Proverbs 15:33)

Kathy Davidson from Women Anchored in Hope her testimony
The storms of life . . . Sometimes He calms the storm other times He calms his child. As a little girl in her room with her Bible listening to her parents fight, Kathy knew suffering. But there was a point where she grew up and got it. Going through the hard things, realizing we're all born into sin, that we won't arrive until we cross over into heaven. The light bulb goes on and Hope is born. When you get to a place where you need something more it's through the Holy Spirit that will help you. You only need ask God for strength. He knew you when you were in your mother's womb! He knows you.
Psalms 107:23-32 "Those who go down to the sea in ships, who do business on great waters, they see the works of the Lord, and His wonders in the deep. For He commands and raises the stormy wind, which lifts up the waves of the sea. They mount up to the heavens, they go down again to the depths; their soul melts because of trouble. They reel to and fro, and stagger like a drunken man, and are at their wits' end. Then they cry out to the Lord in their trouble. And He brings them out of their distresses. He calms the storm. So that its waves are still. Then they are glad because they are quiet; so He guides them to their desired Haven. Oh that men would give thanks to the Lord for His goodness, and for His wonderful works to the children of men! Let them exalt Him also in the assembly of His people. And praise Him in the company of the elders.
The journey of forgiveness with all of the feelings & emotions from making decisions that aren't in our best interest can eventually draw you in the right direction. That is hope. The faith like a mustard seed. After being displaced from her home to coming to terms with there being no greater suffering than what Jesus endured on the cross for us, Kathy's faith & hope in Him kept her. As she stated, she didn't like it, but it made her who she is today.
