Throughout Scripture we are reminded that remembrance is important. In Ephesians 2:11-12, Paul gives a list of “remembrance” to the gentiles in Ephesus – reminding them that they had no access to God or the commonwealth of God’s family before Christ. In this expositional sermon, Nathan Johnson talks about the significance of being brought into the family of God and why we should remember what God has done in our past and desires to do in our present.

Study: Man up!
Every man could do with hearing this message — and not just once, but periodically again and again. This is a message spoken directly to men, commissioning them to "man up" as fathers, husbands, ministers, friends, and businessmen. As the darkness grows in our world, so must the men grow up in the strength and authority of Jesus Christ to meet this darkness with the Light of God’s Word.

This is the sixty-sixth installment in Eric’s series entitled Spiritual Lessons from WW2. In this episode he brings us into the 10 days of lockdown prior to the Allied invasion of France on June 6, 1944. Most of us had never experienced a lockdown prior the year 2020. And most of us would be happy if we never experienced a lockdown again. However, it is amazing to think that there actually was a lockdown prior to the enormous Allied victory of D-Day. May it be proven yet again that the good guys rise victorious after this current lockdown.
