Believing That God Loves You
Believing Love New Life Island (Upper Black Eddy, PA) Nickerson, Isabelle 08/15/2025
God made the first move in loving us. We are instructed to live our lives not just knowing God loves us but actively believing it. An example of how Jesus Christ represented God’s love is given, and we are encouraged to to love others as a response to God’s love. We will grow when we do things with the love of God.
Believing
Believing New Life Island (Upper Black Eddy, PA) Mercado, Dean 08/14/2025
This is the opening teaching of the 2025 Youth Advance on believing. The teacher goes over what believing is, how we need to believe that God loves us, and building believing in our lives. We are given the examples of the flea in the box and the elephant chained to a stake so that we can learn not to limit ourselves in believing God, and we look at an example of Jesus Christ’s believing.
The Love of God
Love Carr Home (Milltown, NJ) Carr, Jerry 07/13/2023
Before the teaching, Eric Rosa and Kristy Nafey perform two songs, “You Are with Me” and “Our Love Never Fails”.
This teaching goes through some things that the Word of God says about the love of God. The teacher looks at how we need to truly accept and believe that God really loves us, how we will love ourselves once we see how God sees us and then can truly love others, how there is no fear in love, how we can manifest God’s love so that it impacts everyone we interact with, and more.
Pentecost Picnic
The New Birth The Property Diaz, Aneira 06/08/2025
This teaching is from the 2025 Central Area Pentecost Picnic.
We look at how God isn’t looking for perfect people, He is looking for those who will believe. We could not have earned all of things that we have been given, and God doesn’t call people by mistake. The teacher emphasizes how our pasts don’t matter to God and aren’t up for discussion by others or by ourselves. We are instructed that, since God has forgiven us, we are to forgive now. God has called us to be His family for eternity.
After the teaching, the song “On My Way” by the Harbor Light Fellowship Band is played.
Forgiveness
A Few Things About Marriage
Marriage, Family, and Children The Great Mystery The Fellowlaborers’ House (Milltown, NJ) Armstrong, Joe 06/21/2025
In the first part of this teaching, Rev. Armstrong sets God’s heart for marriage and the importance of following His design for it instead of the world’s. He covers how the marriage relationship is to be a living example of the Great Mystery in action, with the husband and wife’s roles being different but complementary, just as it is with the members of the Body of Christ. In the second part, he covers three things that can ruin a marriage: anger, lack of forgiveness and selfishness; and then three things that can bless a marriage: edifying words, kindness and unconditional love.
