Seek the Lord and He Will Be Found
God is never hard to find. If we call out, He will answer. The difficult part is when we drift from the Lord, and we recognize we are lost. God is still there, but if we’re confused or disillusioned, it can be hard to know which end is up. That is where Judah found themselves […]
Is the Resurrection True?
Conspiracy theories abound about the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. This can be confusing for a new believer or someone who is going through difficult times. Is the resurrection true? The Apostle Paul lays out his defense of the resurrection in 1 Corinthians 15. 1 Corinthians 15:14, 16-17 “and if Christ has not been […]
Live the Overcoming Life
Foxes Book of Martyrs tells the stories of men and women who died for their faith in Jesus Christ. These people were bold and stood up to those persecuting the church.

The Importance of Teaching Scripture
There are all types of churches. I think this is a good thing because it allows people of all walks of life to feel comfortable worshipping the Lord. The color and variety of different groups brings life to the church and glory to God. One thing that should be common in each is the teaching […]
Love Reigns Supreme

Recognizing the Approved Among You

Everything Your Heart Needs
Getting old is hard. Your body doesn’t work like it did in your twenties. Muscles ache, eyes and ears become weak, and you move slower. What’s most important, though, is your heart. You have to take care of the organ that makes everything work. There is no shortage of medicines and diets to keep your […]
Be Careful that You Don’t Fall

This guides me when I am deciding to do things like snow skiing. Using the same thinking when it comes to temptation can prevent some long term […]
