Maranatha Teachings

In this final message in our series on Romans chapter eight, we wade in and dive down into the wonders of God's everlasting love for His people.

Foreknowledge and predestination, God's sovereignty and man's freedom of will are weighty subjects worthy of deep contemplation. The truth of their realities offer us great encouragement and practical paradigms for a victorious life. Join us as we examine God's destiny for our lives.

Scripture tells us plainly that life is trying. Experience tells us all is not well. Hope tells us all will be. Join us as we examine how the Comforter, the Holy Spirit of God, comes along side us in prayer to carry through hard times into the realization of the good purpose of God.

In Christ, none of our suffering is pointless or without reward. In this second message in our series on Romans 8, we look at the reality of suffering and God's promises to us in the here and now and for hereafter. 

The Apostle Paul defined the Christian's struggle succinctly when he wrote, "when I want to do right, evil lies close at hand." In this first message in our series on Romans 8, we examine our recreated identities and how the Spirit empowers us to live right in our life for Christ.

No one gets through this life unscathed. How do we respond when tragedy touches us? In this message, which begins with an encouraging prophetic word, we examine the sovereignty of God in life and death and Jesus as the resurrection and the life. Our Father hasn't freed us from suffering in this life, but He has given us great hope to carry on.

One of the great tensors of the Christian life is the dynamic pull between the hope of our future redemption and its present reality. The Lord leads us over this tight rope through the encouraging admonition to behave now as He has promised to fully make us then. He asks us to walk in the resurrected mentality of being dead to sin and alive to God in Christ Jesus. Join us as we delved into this truth and its powerful impact on our daily lives and the lives of those around us.

Shortly after the fall, Adam and Eve hid behind a tree when they heard God walking through the garden. In sin, they had lost the revelation of the true omnipresence of God. In this message, we examine the encouraging and exciting realities of God's omnipresence, His abiding presence, and His manifest presence.

From the broken house of Jesse came King Jesus as prophesied centuries before. Isaiah saw his full anointing in the seven-fold Spirit of God. John the Baptist proclaimed that God had given Messiah the Spirit without measure. In this sharing, we examine these aspects of the Spirit of God and what they tell us about our Lord and our life in the Spirit.

After calming the Sea of Galilee, Jesus came to shore in the Gadarenes; an area bound in fear because of the demoniac there. Join us as we discuss Jesus' impact in one man's life and how it affected the entire region.
