Every mother has to go through a progression that involves three things: sorrow, faith, and joy.  Listen as Pastor Abraham LaVoi teaches about a Gentile mother who went through this progression and how Jesus went out of His way to minister to her.

Do you need a refreshment in your faith?  The first thing we must realize to have a fresh faith is that we are deeply loved by Jesus.  Using Psalm 103 and what happened at the Last Supper, Pastor Abraham LaVoi will show us how much love Jesus has for us.

According to Pastor Abraham LaVoi, “There is a connection between what we do in the physical and what happens in the spiritual.”  Listen to Pastor Abraham explain this big idea as he tells the story of Naaman and his step of faith. 

According to Pastor Abraham LaVoi, “There is aprogression that everyone has to go through to have a fresh start.” That progression is painful past, present perspective, promised potential.  Listen to Pastor Abraham as he explains the progression that the two people, Mary Magdalene and Peter, went through after being the first two to see the resurrected Jesus on that first Easter morning.  May these two people’s stories inspire us to realize that we, too, can have a fresh start because Jesus has been raised from the dead.

What do the laws of sowing and reaping have to do with a fresh start? Listen to Pastor Abraham LaVoi explain these five principles.  If we sow the right seed, we can expect a great harvest and a fresh start with God.

Do you need a fresh start? To have a fresh start, something has to end.  Listen to Pastor Abraham LaVoi talk about the last words Jesus spoke on the cross before his death.  Then listen to the first words Jesus said on the morning of His resurrection.

What actually happened after Jesus gave His last teaching? Why would anyone step up to endure the cross? Listento Pastor Abraham LaVoi as he describes why our Savior was willing to move forward toward His death.

As Jesus rode into Jerusalem on the first Palm Sunday, people shouted, “Blessed is the King who comes in the name of the Lord!” This irritated the Pharisees, and they asked Jesus to rebuke them. Instead of quieting the crowd, Jesus answered, “I tell you, if these were silent, the very stones would cry out.” If stones could talk, what would they say? What lessons could they teach us? In this message, Pastor Abraham LaVoi shares stories about three stones and what they can teach us about the power of Jesus.
