    Naomi and her family have wandered a long way from God’s promises - what sort of welcome will she find when she turns back?

    When it comes to handyman repair jobs, I reckon there’s a strange fascination. There is for me, anyway. If you want anything fixed around the house, CALL ME. You’ll probably be sorry. Because to be honest, the problem is, in my own mind, I’m BOB THE BUILDER. But in practice, all I usually do is ...read more

    Powerful biblical principles for starting over in life from the story of Ruth.

    Don’t you love a good comeback? Don’t you love it when the underdog wins? It does our hearts good to see someone get back up after they’ve been knocked down by the tragedies of life.

    Do you ever read Romance novels? I don’t – believe me! I’m not particularly interested in that kind of literature. I’m a “facts” man. I like non-fiction. I like theology. I like pastoral administrative type books too. I like the kind of books that put most people to sleep. But I found a ...read more
