The Front Porch Devotions

As we anticipate Jesus' arrival, we may well need to tend, moment by moment, to that which gives even fleeting life to our spirit and to the spirit of others. Our desperate prayers, our bread of tears, may be that which keeps us alive until we experience Immanuel. Join Pastor Chris as he explores this topic tonight on the Front Porch

One of the challenges we can often face is too much. We take on too much, we promise too much, or we just live were too much is never achieved. God has shown us that little is better than too much. Join Pastor Chris as he explores what it means to be stuffed in our spiritual lives and how to unstuff ourselves.

The directions in our lives often need changes to them. When this occurs God steps in and provides us with the change. Will we accept this opportunity or miss it.

We receive a dream and vision from God as to our purpose and plan for life. When this arrives and we begin to take the steps we must not give up or even stop, we must finish the journey.
