Simple Truths for Life

As star witnesses--Jesus wants us to live out our faith in such a way that it reflects God's light for others to see. And this week, Charles Tapp continues his series "The Church On Trial" by examining whether the Church has been a star witness or if it is guilty of giving false testimony, with Part 6: "The Star Witness."

It's a pretty amazing thought that God chooses to love us--warts and all. And this week, Charles Tapp continues his series "The Church On Trial" by asking whether the Church, the Bride of Christ, will remain faithful and committed until He returns to take part in the grand celebration he has planned just for her. This is Part 5 in the series: "Here Comes the Bride."

And the trial continues. This week, the claim is that the church is to be the salt and light of the world. But has it lost its flavor and contaminated the world instead? You get to play the jury as Charles Tapp continues his series "The Church On Trial" with part 4: Good For Nothing.

When it comes to being a part of God's Kingdom, is there a limit to what you're willing to pay? Charles Tapp continues to examine the evidence whether the church lives up to the claims it's made about itself in his series "The Church on Trial" with part 3 "The Cost of the Kingdom."

What does it mean to love? Does the world know the people--the church--by our love? Charles Tapp examines the evidence with part 2 of the Church On Trial with his message "The Love Church."

In the court of law, it's up to the jury to determine guilt or innocence based on the facts that have been presented. And some cases are more clear-cut than others. So if the church were on trial, would it be able to live up to the claims it's made about itself? For the next several weeks, you become the jury. And Pastor Charles Tapp will be presenting the claims the church has made. Will you find it innocent or guilty of those claims? We begin with part 1 of "The Church On Trial: Upon This Rock."

It’s not always easy to ask for help. But there is someone who truly understands what you may be going through. This week, Charles Tapp reveals what God has promised us, and challenges the believer to not be afraid to make your requests known to God, as he continues with part 2 in this series “Strength for the Journey” with his message “A Bold Request.”

It would be nice if God could just remove the pain and obstacles in our way. But as Charles Tapp reveals this week, there is a grace that God offers every believer when they find themselves faced with the most challenging circumstances. He shares what that looks like, and how to receive it, as he begins a new series of messages “Strength for the Journey” with part 1 “Perfect Weakness.”

As followers of Christ, we were never meant to spend our time preoccupied with his return. And this week, as Charles Tapp explains, we should instead be occupied with his return. He explains what that means in his message “Occupied or Preoccupied?”

Most of us can attest to how much a mother loves her children, and the lengths she will go for them. And as Charles Tapp explains this week, this love of a mother, in a very real way, is God’s way of revealing his heart towards us. As he shares this special Mother’s Day message, “A Mother’s Love.”
