In this unprecedented time of local, national, and world shut-downs due to the corona virus spread, our call as Christians (as always) is to trust in the Lord with all our heart.

Pastor Charlie also gives statistical information from the Great Influenza of 1918 and what...

Jesus has called us out of the world and into His kingdom and presence. We are not to be like the world nor mimic the lifestyle of ungodly people. Jesus said in Matthew 6:8, "Do not be like them."

Yet, so many Christians are compromising and giving in to the prevailing moral values of...

The confrontation of David and Goliath is a story for the ages. Goliath was the largest man who ever lived. In this teaching on 1 Samuel, Chapter 17, Pastor Charlie points out insights for spiritual warfare and slaying the giants in our own life.

It is not external. You can change environments, schools, churches, and even friends, and lust will follow you because it is a battle within. This...

Paul said that he would not have known lust unless the law had said, "You shall not covet." The 10th commandment is the "killer commandment."

Are you constantly defeated to the same sins over and over again? Our victory is not in trying to...
