The Oilfield Christian Fellowship Bible Ministry is a multi-faceted outreach ministry dedicated to get the Word of God to men and women of the Oil Patch.
“For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life.” John 3:16
In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. The earth was formless and empty, and darkness covered the deep waters.
We have partnered with Faith by Hearing, an organization committed to reaching the nations with the Word of God in audio.

QUESTIONS GOD ASKS – WEEK 28 – “WHY ARE YOU FEARFUL, O YOU OF LITTLE FAITH?”By Mike Chaffin But He said to them, “Why are you fearful, O you of little faith?” Then He arose and rebuked the winds and the sea, and there was a great calm. Matthew 8:26 Wars and rumors of wars. Diseases and contagions. Tornadoes, hurricanes, and floods. They all have one thing in common. They make us worry. Worry and fear come naturally to us. Concern for our safety and those we love can bind us. Insecurity as to where the next meal is coming from, how to pay the bills, and our health can crowd out other thoughts. For a non-Christian this is a normal part of life. However, for a Christian, we don’t have to give in to worry. Jesus posed this question to His disciples during a storm they were in on the Sea of Galilee. Jesus, sleeping in the stern, was awakened by them. They cried for Him to save them as they thought they would perish. Jesus rebuked the wind and the waves. The storm ceased and the disciples were amazed that even the wind and waves obeyed His command. Jesus wasn’t questioning their response to the storm. They came to Him for help, just as we would pray for his help today. He questioned why they were afraid and why they had so little faith. Heathens should be afraid, but Christians haven’t been given a spirit of fear. For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind. 2 Timothy 1:7 The question Jesus asks is how do we respond to hardship and peril? Do we go to prayer in faith, knowing Jesus is there with us? Or do we let fear get the better of us, confusing our minds? God has power over nature and throughout the Bible He has given that power, through prayer, to people of faith. Moses, through prayer, parted the waters. Joshua’s army marched through faith around Jericho for seven days not knowing exactly what was going to happen but won the victory. Elijah prayed that it wouldn’t rain, and it didn’t for over three years. Peter walked on water, until his faith wavered.
