Sacrificial Giving
Mark 12:41 And Jesus sat over against the treasury, and beheld how the people cast money into the treasury: and many that were rich cast in much. Mark 12:42 And there came a certain poor widow, and she threw in two mites, which make a farthing. Mark 12:43 And he called unto him his disciples, […]

Emoji Prayer
With access to world news, the compounding tragedies have provoked civic and world leaders to respond to almost every event. Social media platforms allow quick replies or “call outs” to those matters which affect the lives of people beyond their borders. The current and most common statement is “Thoughts and Prayers.” However, the shallowness of […]

Evidence Of Belief
Is it possible to be a faithful church member, believer, giver and still be lost? Is it possible to preach, sing in choirs, teach Sunday school class and miss the rapture? Paul faced the possibility of this matter with great sobriety. 1 Corinthians 9:27 But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: […]

Decoration Day
The honoring of a life given in war was first known as Decoration Day. It originated following the bloody conflict that was America’s Civil War. Americans fought for the freedom of all people and it cost 646,392 souls, the most in American history. In 1971, the federal government declared it an official holiday, calling it […]

“disinformation”
It may be my age, but when I was young there was no such thing as “disinformation.” We called it a lie. The term we use today is a broad stroke of ambiguousness.

Governments, political parties, celebrities, and media have joined to dismantle the scripture’s established truth. The Bible has guided us for centuries, but now […]

Motherhood
William Ross Wallace once wrote, “The hand that rocks the cradle is the hand that rules the world.” He wrote of the power and preeminence of motherhood; that almost all views are given by the voice of motherhood. The Bible bares this truth in the light and life of Hannah, Jochebed, Jedidah, Eunice, and more. […]

All of Him or nothing
Matthew 26:4 “And consulted that they might take Jesus by subtlety, and kill him.” In every age there is a resistance to receive the fullness of Jesus Christ. Pieces of Him are palatable, but the whole of Him is distasteful. He offers “hard sayings” and straightforward commands. He tells the rich to sell all; the […]

Please, Don’t look away
Many years ago a young woman was being attacked in a nightclub. While others stood by, her life was forever changed. The onlooking crowd could have intervened, but they chose to walk away. The laws were challenged that day concerning the bystanders. States adopted new directives, which imposed a legal duty to act in some […]

Easter….Sunday
Passover-Easter-Sunday. This is the Day of Resurrection! Easter is the day when we celebrate a Risen Savior Who loved us enough to die for our sins and powerful enough to rise from the grave. He redeemed us with His own Blood and gave us the victory when He rolled back the stone. However, from the […]
