Prevailing Light
How difficult is it for us to always pray and never give up? How necessary is it?
Power… When the Holy Spirit Comes
Pentecost, the gift of the Holy Spirit to believers, is all about the power of God — the power to live a new life, the power to give glory to the Living God, the power of faith that transforms us and that beckons to others to come to God as well!
Faith-ful Light
Why is this Awake’s longest Sunday message? We stepped out in faith and asked God to act!
My Witnesses… To the Ends of the Earth
It is easy to get distracted by other things — some of them perhaps important things — but Jesus makes it clear to His followers that our primary task is make disciples. To that end, we are to be His witnesses, “even to the ends of the earth.”

Marvelous Light
Does God work miracles today? If so, why? What are His purposes for doing such wonders?

Armor of Light
To prepare for the Lord’s return, we are to put on “the armor of light” — and that armor is the Lord Jesus Christ Himself!
