Godly women in Biblical history who motivate us to fight our spiritual enemies. Women who demonstratedphenomenal courage, while their male counterparts wavered in unbelief.
A scriptural dive into how Christians should view politics and what level of engagement we should have and how do our attitudes and interactions with others on these delicate topics, reflect our relationship to Christ and how He loved even His enemies. This teaching will give you Biblical principles for interactions and how Jesus taught us to impact our world. It will also inspire courage in you as you are reminded that ultimately: Jesus, and His gospel are the true hope for mankind....not a politician. Put your hope in Christ!

Detailing the beauty of Jesus resurrection revealed in this feast!
This episode also contains some information about Jewish dietary laws and if we should or should not follow them.
So exciting to see Christ revealed in the feasts of the Old Testament!
Jesus was reflected so perfectly in the the Hebrew Passover!
Sometimes we get caught up in the routine of communion and forget or miss the purpose and beauty of it, entirely. This short message will draw you closer to the Bread of Life. Selah.
If you are having a “why me?” moment, this will truly encourage you!
What did Jesus mean when he admonished us to “give in secret” and to not “let your right hand know, what your left hand is doing”
As always, if you haven't listened to the other parts, you will gain much better context, if you go back and listen to them first. In this segment, we will discuss giving lavishly from the heart, rather than the law, to those who labor among you in the teaching of the Word, and equally as importantly, to those in financial need, sitting right next to you in the pew.
In this episode we will take a deep look at Hebrews 7 and Genesis 14 to examine Abrahams tithe to Melchizedek. This is a frequently used argument by those who believe that the Levitical law of tithing is still for today.
Today we examine the commonly used passages in Malachi, that are either sincerely misunderstood by well meaning pastors or worse, are intentionally being used out of context in order to manipulate church members for their own personal gain.
Is the “Tithe” commanded in the Old Covenant a requirement of New Covenant believers? We will deeply exam the origins and purposes of tithe in the old covenant and the popular scriptures on this topic, that are misused (some purposefully and some unintentionally) today by many church leaders, to attempt to convince their congregations that tithing is a new covenant REQUIREMENT. Both Jesus and the apostles encouraged new covenant believers to give lavishly (especially to the poor) but neither of them EVER commanded the new covenant believers to give a tithe (10%). Jesus did however, address the Pharisees for their hypocrisy of tithing faithfully while simultaneously neglecting deeds of mercy. During this multiple episode series, Dean will discuss this scripture in Luke, along with Malachi and Hebrews and many many others. So we encourage you to take notes. This message will open your eyes to many misunderstood and misapplied texts of scripture. The light bulb will go off and you will absolutely be liberated!!!!
In this episode we will look at a different perspective than what is often taught on this simple verse: “Jesus Wept”. I believe this will greatly encourage your faith.
A short testimony of a sick and bed-bound Christian woman who's prayers were responsible for over 400 conversions!!! This is SO encouraging!
I feel like this may be a specific word for someone who is really fighting temptation right now. I feel like God spontaneously just put it on my heart this morning, that someone needed to hear this. If you are that person and you need prayer, please by all means, feel free to reach out to me for prayer: daturn777@yahoo.com

With the recent downfall of a trusted minister, Ravi Zacharias , we as the body of Christ have much to learn. God forbid we do not learn it!!!
This is somewhat of a continuation of our topic of Election, as we move from Romans 9 into the next chapters that tie into the apostle Paul’s message in Romans 9
This is our final look at Romans 9. Today we look at the hardening of Pharaoh’s heart.
Today we take a deeper look at God “raising up” Pharaoh in Romans 9:17
A short encouraging word from brother Dean. Bless you guys this season as we remember Christ together.
Today Dean will be unpacking the difficult passage in Romans 9: “Jacob I loved, Esau I hated”. There is so many other passages that dean will bring out that brings out the far bigger picture here, than simply trying to make full sense of this passage on its own.
Today we take a look at the significance of Isaac and Ishmael in verses 7-9 of Romans 9. Understanding the significance of Isaac and Ishmael is key to a correct understanding of Romans 9.
In this section we will begin our journey through Romans 9.
We will take a look at one of the commonly taught doctrine and beliefs of Calvinism, which states that God has chosen people before they were born, to Heaven or to Hell and that the common man just has to hope he’s one of the lucky ones to get picked...if he’s not, no matter how bad he wants it....there is no hope for him....atleast that’s how Calvin sees it.
We continue to examine as a group, the very questionable book circulating in the church: Physics Of Heaven. This is a discussion that is very eye opening and important for us as Christians to be more aware of Satans devices.
In the next few episodes we will take a close look at a book, being sold by Christianbooks.com and by Bethel Church online bookstore. The book is Physics Of Heaven and it is a compilation of different article of various pastors and teachers (from Bill Johnson to Bob Jones). It seems to be, that the collective belief of these writers, is that Christians have a lot to learn from the New Age movement. The Forward (endorsement) of this book is written by Kris Vallotton. If you are a mature believer and very well grounded in scripture, you may wish to purchase the book to verify the content for yourself, although it is certainly not necessary. There is a lot of group involvement in this discussion , which makes for a very very interesting and thought provoking episode! Much input will be given by our friend Cindy, who was deeply involved in the New Age, before fully surrendering her life to Christ. (Dean or Cindy are available if you have further questions)
In this session we will dive deep into multiple scriptures to refute the deceptive theology that God has made us “little gods” like Himself, who have equal authority to God Himself. Has God given us authority? Absolutely! But have some Christians taken this too far? Absolutely! Get your Bibles out...we are going to dig deep.
What are some of the various new age rooted deceptions that are creeping into the church? Are they obvious or cloaked in Christian lingo? How common are these deceptions? How concerned should we be? Hint: VERY!
There are various dangerous doctrines slowly gaining a foothold in the American Church, a few of which are the little gods doctrine and new age mysticism.
Ruth Westbrook draws from some Old Testament history, to challenge us to both endure our current trial while also listening closely for the Masters voice.
Learning to endure trials on this narrow road of Christianity is both possible and can in the end, be rewarding. Jesus promised: “In this world, you will have tribulation, BUT, be encouraged, I have overcome the world”. If someone lied to you when you got saved and told you that Jesus was going to meet your every desire and you would never go through hard times, then this message will be both eye-opening and encouraging.
This is part B, a continuation of: Encouragement Through The Book Of Job. (Please go to Part A) In this class (A & B), we will be discussing the life of a godly man in the Bible named Job, who suffered more than most of us have ever imagined, yet, in the end, he came out of those struggles victoriously. We will take a look at his well meaning, but often misguided friends, as well as his own struggle with thoughts of despair. This study will show you that you are not alone in your pain and that God knows full well, how to walk you through it, to the other side.

Ever been abandoned or deserted by a friend or family member? Ever feel like God has abandoned you?
“I’m so lonely. Can God help me with my loneliness?” “I just can’t seem to get away from this deep sense of shame I feel, no matter what I try! How could God possibly forgive me, I can’t even forgive myself!” “I heard Jesus gives you the power to overcome temptation, is that true? Because I’m tempted every day!” Please email Dean or Amy if you need prayer or have questions: thirst4god@live.com
Should my church heed the social distancing guidelines? If I practice extra hand washing or avoid large crowds, am I lacking in faith? Is Covid-19 a government conspiracy to close down the Christian churches in the world? Where does wisdom come into play?
Is it possible that the human race is under the judgment of God?
What is going on? How should we as believers respond ? Will we be protected? Should we be worried?
This is a powerful message and unique perspective on what is currently happening in our world!
