Contributed by Pastor Charles Wilkins on Feb 5, 2026
Black history is not a sidebar in America’s story; it’s a sacred chapter in God’s story. It’s chains breaking while prayers rise, faith whispered in fields, hope sung in spirituals, and courage passed down when tomorrow felt forbidden.
What Black History Means to Me Theme Scripture: Psalm 44:1 – “We have heard with our ears, O God, our fathers have told us, what work thou didst in their days, in the times of old.” As Christians, we have much to consider, learn from, and celebrate during Black History Month.

Contributed by Richard David on Jan 3, 2001

The Showdown In The Desert (Matthew 4:1-11)
Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Nov 6, 2024
After being baptized in the Jordan river, Jesus was driven into the Judean wilderness by the Holy Spirit to face forty days of hunger, thirst, and a supernatural battle with His archenemy and ours, the devil.
The Holy Spirit led Jesus into the wilderness of Judea, a barren, dry, and desolate area. It would be a place of severe testing where He would encounter the works and wiles of the devil, a real being whose aim was to try and tempt Jesus to abuse HIs power, lose His faith, or submit to the ...read more
