2024 Fellowship Meeting. Elder Chris McCool looks at the type of Boaz pointing towards Jesus Christ as our greater Boaz. Christ is our mighty man of wealth that takes care and provision for his bride by allowing us to glean among the sheaves and dropping handfuls of purpose for his dearly beloved church in our […]

2024 Fellowship Meeting. Elder Jonathan Wise considers four references to “last” in 1 Cor. 15. Paul was the last witness of Christ’s resurrection. Christ destroyed the last enemy of death. The last Adam was made a quickening spirit. Finally, we are all anticipating the last trump for Christ to return and ever be with our […]

The fear of man is a snare. If we allow the fear of man to be the primary factor dictating our decisions – instead of the fear of God – then we will inevitably fall into sin. We have to be God pleasers first, not man pleasers. We have to be comfortable being alone standing […]

Fear is a natural emotion to help protect us from danger, but the spirit of fear left uncontrolled can be debilitating, creating bondage and torment for the child of God.
