Restoration Christian Ministries presents Restoration Place, featuring pastors John and Darlene Bazemore, who present the Word of God in order to encourage everyone through our daily lives.
Acts 27:9 tells the story of the apostle Paul, as he made his way aboard a ship that was destined for disaster. However, Paul was in the minority on his opinion. Low and behold, Paul's prediction came true. At the end of the day, it comes down to who will we listen to? How do we know who to listen to? Pastor John Bazemore returns to the mic to tell us just that. The title is self-explanatory, so we just encourage you to listen to this week's edition of Restoration Place on the King James Radio Network.
Every so often, we all have doubts in our mind about whether certain things will happen for us. On this week's episode of Restoration Place, First Lady Darlene Bazemore goes to Phillipians 4:6-9 to help us understand that we simply need to make our requests known to God, and not to worry and be anxious about them. Time to let go of those anxieties and be encouraged by this episode of Restoration Place on the King James Radio Network.
Minister Thomas Gilbert addresses the question of what is your definition of church? Some people look at church as a building, others look at it as a community? Which side do you fall on? Minister Thomas takes us to Acts 2:42 to help separate the two, and explains which side is the right one. Follow along with Restoration Place on the King James Radio Network.
There will be(and probably have been) times in your life where the people who you count on for support will not be as excited for you as you would like. There may even be times where your friends and family will try to talk you out of something you believe that you are destined to accomplish. Even Jesus had his share of detractors from within his own rank and file. Mark 3:20-21 accentuates this point with Jesus and His disciples, and as Pastor John Bazemore says in this week's message, sometimes you have to stand by yourself. Listen here at Restoration Place on the King James Radio Network.
There are many places in God's Word(starting at John 17:17) that talks about renewing or cleansing your heart and thoughts, when it comes to our everyday lives. Every day is a new opportunity to get it right, and to start with a clean slate. First Lady Darlene Bazemore goes one-by-one through each Biblical passage that tells us to shed those dead things of the past, and smooth things out for the future. We take a look at the true meaning of exfoliation on this episode of Restoration Place on the King James Radio Network.
Acts 6:1 gives us the names of those who are not particularly well known in the Bible. On this episode of Restoration Place, Pastor John Bazemore picks out Phillip to demonstrate the point that someone can come out of the shadows, and make an impact on his surroundings. All of us can't be in the spotlight. As a matter of fact, some of us don't really want it. However, when it comes to the Kingdom of God, it's not about your spotlight. It's wherever God's light will shine, and lot of times, it will illuminate those people in dark, unknown places. Find out more from Pastor B at Restoration Place on the King James Radio Network.
Pastor John Bazemore, Jr. relays the story of 2 Kings 7:3, and the four lepers who had a choice to make: Go backwards to the people who rejected them, or go forward into a potentially perilous situation of famine and possibly death. This is where your faith has to spring you forward. Find out the decisions that the lepers made, and how it all turned out - plus get a valuable lesson on using your faith, all on this edition of Restoration Place on the King James Radio Network.
There are those moments where we all lose our patience, some a lot sooner than others. It's at these times where we need to heed to God's request, and let patience get us to where we need to be. First Lady Darlene Bazemore talks about what's required in crucifying the wants and desires from our fleshly nature, in order get to want God truly wants for us. Take a listen to how we can keep our "flesh" under control on this edition of Restoration Place.
Mark 11:23-24 gives a description of what happens when you use your faith to bring about what you desire. After all, Luke 1:37 says "with God, nothing shall be impossible".

Start the year off right with an encouraging word at Restoration Place on the King James Radio Network.
Acts 15:36 takes us to the story of Paul and Barnabas, and their point of contention - John Mark. Barnabas wanted John to accompany them on their next trip, but Paul had other ideas. This would lead to a whole new turn of events. In life, every decision we make matters. Pastor John Bazemore connects the dots, and explains how our decisions can create a positive lineage - or a negative one. Before we step into 2020, understand how the decisions you make right now will affect your future on this final 2019 episode of Restoration Place.
As a general rule, we as a people, are not very fond of being called remnants. However, in this case, being a remnant is considered a good thing. After all, when God decided to do away with either parts of, or the entire Earth in the Old Testament, there were some people left behind, otherwise considered as "remnants". Using Matthew 28:18 as one example, First Lady Darlene Bazemore goes into the details of it, as we take a look at exactly what it means to be a remnant on this edition of Restoration Place on the King James Radio Network.
As eluded to in the book of Ecclesiastes, there is a time and a place for everything. In the Kingdom of God, there is an appointed time for everything. Pastor John Bazemore explores this principle even further in this week's message at Restoration Place. Find out exactly what to do, while you're working toward your own appointed time for what God is ready to pass down to you, courtesy of Restoration Christian Ministries, and the King James Radio Network.
This week at Restoration Place on the King James Radio Network, Ephesians 6:12 says that we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities and powers. We can all agree that this is a crazy world that we are living in. This is why God calls believers of the Lord to act as beacons of light to the rest of the world. As an example, money has become the gold standard for why we do what we do. However, we cannot forget that God is the source of that money, as well as all things. While the rest of the world is going crazy, believers are ordained to stay calm, and reflect God's message. Pastor John Bazemore gives us a better understanding of what the code of conduct really is, and on this week's episode of Restoration Place.
1 Samuel 1:2 takes us to the story of Hannah who wanted to have a child, but was unable to. There are times where we want something that we simply cannot have. When that happens, these are the times where we can lean on God to get us through it - and to remind us of what we do have. Minister Nikki Gilbert takes us through the scriptures to make exactly that point. Happy Thanksgiving from Restoration Christian Ministries, and Restoration Place on the King James Radio Network.
Faithfulness is part of the Spirit, but in order to receive the fullness of what God has to offer, we must do things God's way. There are many adjectives and qualifications to doing things God's way, and First Lady Darlene Bazemore will talk about a few of them in this week's message through the passage of Galatians 5:22 from Restoration Place on the King James Radio Network.
As part of giving our all to God, Proverbs 3:1-10 elaborates on this principle a bit further. Pastor John Bazemore breaks it down verse by verse, and specifies what needs to be done to receive the blessings from the Lord that we are all looking for. It's another informative edition of Restoration Place on the King James Radio Network.
In Genesis 3:1-9, after Eve took the forbidden fruit, God came looking for Adam to get his version of exactly what happened. However, Adam was not where he was supposed to be. He had lost his connection to God, and could not properly recognize the sound of the Lord, when the time came. For most of us, there are times where we lose that connection to God, and cannot hear the sounds we need to, such as God's voice when he calls us, or when he commands us to be faithful to Him. How do we keep that connection? How do we properly hear the sound of his voice. Pastor Troy Bazemore has the key to that issue, and you can catch it on this edition of Restoration Place on the King James Radio Network.
In the book of Galatians 5:22-23, the Bible talks about gentleness and some of the traits that surround it.

Doubt and faith cannot live together as opposites. There either has to be one or the other. In the passage of Mark 5:21-23, Jesus has some healing to do, and he certainly doesn't want any doubters in the room. It's a lesson to all of us. The burden of proof is on us to remove all doubt in our minds, in order for our miracles to occur. Find out the rest of it on this episode of Restoration Place on the King James Radio Network.

This week, Pastor John Bazemore addresses the ongoing issue of people who call themselves Christians flocking to other organizations that do not represent Christian values, or the principles that Jesus taught. The message is to be careful of places and people that are not productive towards what God has commissioned us to do, and to believe. Each of us has an assignment, and part of that assignment is not to get distracted by what appears to be righteous, but is far from it. Pastor John Bazemore explains a whole lot further on this episode of Restoration Place on the King James Radio Network.
There are many times where we can clearly see what's visible, but can easily overlook what's invisible, assuming there's nothing there.

There is a difference between having a passion for the things of God, and a passion for what's out in the world we live in. 1 John 2:15 instructs us to not follow those things of the world.
