Where do you need to repent before the Lord in according to Proverbs 6:16-19? 2. Is there someone you need to forgive and help out? 3. What have you been disgusted by lately?

UNSHAKEABLE (Sunday Morning Message - 3/29/2020) Here are study questions for you to consider alone or discuss with your family: * What has been “shaken” in your life these past couple of weeks? * Are there priorities in your life that has taken away from your relationship with God? * If so, are you planning on “life as usual” once all of this passes or will you readjust your priorities? * How can you spread hope to your friends and family during this time? * Will you commit to or continue a reading plan to study God’s Word?
Where is God in all of this? (Sunday Morning Message - 3/22/2020) These are times unlike we have ever experienced. How do we as Christians address the issues of today? Take some time this morning to be encouraged from Pastor David Giles! Enjoy the message! Here are study questions for you to consider alone or discuss with your family: 1. Have you or your family members experienced worry or fear in the past couple of weeks? 2. How has this change in culture has impacted you and your family over the past few weeks? 3. What does it mean to you that God says He will be with you and He will go before you? 4. How can you and your family be intentional about worshipping God in this season when we are not meeting together in church? 5. It’s easy to prepare practically for this season (purchase food, wash hands, etc), but how do you prepare spiritually as the weeks continue? 6. Where is your heart in this? Are you adding to the fear of those around you or are you bringing courage and strength? 7. Do you know someone who is very afraid now (outside your family)? How can you minister to them?
The Founder of Foursquare, Aimee Semple McPherson, had the phrase “We Would See Jesus” inscribed on her pulpit. Jesus has revealed himself to us and wants us to see Him clearly! This study leading up to Resurrection Sunday will examine how Jesus revealed Himself, in His own words, to the world!
“Kingdom of God” or “Kingdom of Heaven” can be found over 80 times in the New Testament. Every kingdom has a rule (authority), region (people to rule over), and a realm (land/territory). God gave mankind rule over the Earth but they rejected this responsibility with their sin. This sin handed authority to the kingdom of darkness. Jesus reestablished the Kingdom of God with His death and resurrection! He has given authority to believers to build the Kingdom in His Name!

Every Christmas, we sing carols that remind us of the Christmas season. For some, it brings back childhood memories. The carols have a certain “feeling” that tells us it’s Christmas! In this series, we are going to look at how some of the carols came to be and examine the deep, Biblical foundations that explains the reason for the Christmas season! We will gain a perspective from Isaiah, Mary, the Shepherds, Joseph and the Wisemen.

Role of Parenting PARENTS...some of you are, some of you will be, some of you want to be. Parenting is something we need to talk about from time to time. It can be tough, exhausting and may bring you to your wits end! But, be encouraged that God gives us great insight because He cares very much about how we raise our children. Let’s turn to His Word to help us train up our children well and with purpose.

Welcome to Summer Fellowship Sunday! We are thankful to have Iglesia Filadelfia with us today. We are the family of God! ...Every tribe, nation and tongue! Today, Pastor Luis and I will share from John 15 about some benefits of being part of the family of God. God’s presence allows people from different nations, backgrounds, preferences and economics to dwell in unity.
RISK Believers who have given their lives for the cause of Christ took a risk for Jesus. These believers took another risk even after disappointment from taking that risk. We can be tempted to live out a “safe” Christian life that really doesn’t involve a lot of faith. But, Jesus is calling us to risk it all for His kingdom. Are we truly willing to risk it all for the Gospel?
Calling Must Be Greater Than Significance Paul addresses the issue of the importance of the calling of God on our Lives. That call must be greater than any form of signifi-cance we may seek after. Significance has invaded our culture within the church and we can seek it above the presence of God. Today’s sermon is from the Foursquare Convention and address-es the idol of “significance” over the Presence of God. May we be drawn back to our First Love!
The Presence of God If you had to Choose between guaranteed success in life and many blessings without God’s presence or to live in the “Wilderness” with God’s presence, which would you choose? The obvious answer is the later… But, what does your life reflect now? Let’s talk about the importance of the presence of God!
The Father’s Heart Happy Father’s Day! Our Heavenly Father is perfect. Today, we will see just how good of a Father He is. He is the role model for earthly fathers. But, how do we measure up to that standard: Let’s look at six characteristics of Father God and see how good He is and how we can work to achieve the title of, “World’s Best Dad” in our own home.

You Can Pray - Pastor Stasia Giles Prayer is the way we communicate with God and learn His plan for us. Prayer is both marvelous and mysterious. The idea of communicating with the creator of the universe can seem a bit overwhelming and intimidating. Is there a right or wrong way to pray? Is prayer for me or for God? What if my prayer isn’t answered? How does my faith affect my prayers? How do I know what to pray? These may be questions you have asked about prayer and, thankfully we find answers to these questions in His Word. This morning I want to share with you the simple yet unfathomable truth of the power of prayer.

Once you ex-perience the story of Easter, absolutely everything changes in your life. Let’s hear the story again…or for the first time…and grow spiritually and bond with each other and the eternal mes-sage of Easter.
