Community. Challenge. Change.
Romans 10:14-15: “How then shall they call upon Him in Whom they have not believed? And how shall they believe in Him of Whom they have not heard? And how shall they hear without a preacher? And how shall they preach unless they be sent? As it is written, how beautiful are the feet of…

We Are Christ’s
Galatians 5, verses 24 & 25: “And they that are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with the affections and lusts. If we live in the Spirit, let us also walk in the Spirit.” The book of Galatians is a very powerful expository teaching from the apostle Paul. The Galatian Church was dangerously close to defecting…

Rivers of Revival
Isaiah 41, verses 18-20 (AMP): “I will open rivers on the bare heights, and fountains in the midst of the valleys; I will make the wilderness a pool of water, and the dry land springs of water. I will plant in the wilderness the cedar, the acacia, the myrtle, and the wild olive; I will…

Nothing Without Him
John chapter 15, verses 4 through 7, read “Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me. I am the vine, ye are the branches; he that abideth in me, and I in him,…

Jesus Is Highly Exalted!
Philippians chapter 2, verses 5-11 state “Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus; who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: but made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness…

Nothing but the Word
Romans chapter 1, verse 17, says, “For in the Gospel, a righteousness which God ascribes is revealed, both springing from faith and leading to faith (disclosed through the way of faith that arouses to more faith). As it is written, the man who through faith is just and upright shall live and shall live by…

The Riyadh Miracle
I have just returned from another incredible time of ministry in Saudi Arabia. I am not at liberty to disclose all information here via the website, but what God is doing through Grace Outreach Church is nothing short of a miracle. The Church has literally exploded! This revival meeting was a celebration of four…

En route to Riyadh
Chresten has safely arrived in Dubai for a lengthy layover before his final leg of the journey to Riyadh.

Your prayers are welcomed!
Tomorrow I will depart for Riyadh, Saudi Arabia by way of Washington, D.C, returning next Sunday, October 21, 2012. I would most certainly welcome your prayer support for this exciting endeavor. Saudi Arabia is at peace currently but, as you know, things can turn quickly in that part of the world. I simply ask for…

Profession & Possession
Jesus was teaching His disciples, both then and now, that this tree was making a profession of bearing figs, but had no possession of figs. If it had leaves, it was supposed to have fruit.
