Timothy J. Keller, Pastor of Redeemer Presbyterian Church in NYC, remarks:
"...when Jesus weeps, we see that he doesn't believe that the ministry of truth (telling people how they should believe and turn to God) or the ministry of fixing things is enough, does he? He also is a proponent of the

The phone rings. It is Kremlin. Mr. Putin heard a sermon and invites me to bend his ear. A limousine arrives; attendants open doors, carry luggage, and ensure my every comfort. A police escort takes me to the airport where a private plane waits. When we land in Russia, a red carpet cushions my

HURT VS. HARM
There is a wonderful book entitled "Boundaries" in which the authors differentiate two words - Hurt and Harm.
Think of these examples. If I were to eat an entire 2 pound bag of peanut M&M's (which I sadly am fully capable of doing!) would it hurt me? No, it would feel great!

An old preacher friend told the story that before he got saved, he had heard his wife praying for him one day. He had abused her, and she could take no more:

I heard the report on a Navy Seal who lost his life in Iraq. They were on a roof top returning fire from several buildings. One Seal was assigned to watch the entrance to the roof. He saw someone down below but couldn’t get a clear shot. Before anyone knew it a grenade came up through that

When Joe Wright was asked to open the new session of the Kansas Senate, everyone was expecting the usual politically correct generalities. But, what they heard instead was a prayer delivered with grace yet full of truth. "Heavenly Father we ask Your forgiveness. We know Your Word says, ’Woe on

PRAYER AND SPIRITUAL WARFARE
"Life is war. That’s not all it is. But it is always that. Our weakness in prayer is owing largely to our neglect of this truth. Prayer is primarily a wartime walkie-talkie for the mission of the church as it advances against the powers of darkness and unbelief. It is

[250]. A MESSAGE FROM A POEM – THANK YOU LORD
This is a “Thank You” poem. There is much to thank God for. Should we thank God for our birth that is the start of an eternal relationship in joy, bathed in the love of God? Yes! That is love that God wants to share Himself in so many

Most of us could stand to think a little harder about using credit wisely. Especially if we are like the man who was speaking to his coworker: "I'm proud to say that I have worked for 30 years, saved, scrimped, budgeted, invested - just so I could give my kids what I never

Jenna and I boarded a -1:00 A.M. flight in Tel Aviv which would carry us back to the States. Travelling is always hectic, but that night it was especially bad. The plane was packed and we were delayed because of extra-tight airport security. As we boarded, I realized that our seats weren’t
