IT'S NOT ABOUT REPENTANCE
Today it's not about repentance; it's about our feelings.
It's not about prayer; it's about going out for coffee.
It's not about revolution; it's about the status quo.
It's not about sanctification and righteousness; it's about making money.
It's not about

Some of you maybe you’ve never had a good church experience. My wife Liza makes this great dessert – called the blueberry. Once you’ve tasted it, you’ll keep coming back for more. Don’t just be content to go to church to sing the songs and hear the stories about what God did in the past, but rather

The Bully and the Boy
Bavaria. 1934. It was the wrong time and the wrong place to be a Jew. And Heinz was a Jew. The little Bavarian village of Fürth was already overrun with Hitler’s young thugs. To be a Jew…of any age…was to be a target. And Heinz was only eleven. It was the first minute of a

I did a review of holiday specials for December 2-the 16th. These don’t include all the “musical” specials or worship services. They are the run-of-the-mill specials we saw as kids and subject our grandkids too. I counted 62 totals in those two weeks. Of these only four had any direct reference to

Quote: Glamour is not Greatness
James R. Sizoo said: Let it never be forgotten that glamour is not greatness; applause is not fame; prominence is not eminence. The man of the hour is not apt to be the man of the ages. A stone may sparkle, but that does not make it a diamond; people may have money,

Too many children hear empty threats. I’ll be walking through a grocery store and I’ll hear a parent say, “Now I’m warning you. I’m going to count to three. One, two, two and a half, I mean it, you are going to get it. OK, you just wait till your father gets home.”
It’s just threat after

Here are 5 facts about storms of life that we need to remember:
1. Storms are INEVITABLE (John 16:33).
2. Storms are UNPREDICTABLE. You don’t know what tomorrow will bring. (James 4:14).

THE HEART OF A CHILD
Whatever you write on the heart of a child,
no water can wash away.
The sands may be shifted when billows are wild
and the efforts of time may decay.
Some stories may perish, some songs be forgot,
but this engraved record, time changes it not.
Whatever you write in the heart of

ii. Be strong!
We are not here to play, to dream, to drift.
We have hard work to do and loads to lift.
Shun not the struggle,
face it: ’tis God’s gift.
Be strong!
Say not the days are evil. Who’s to blame?
And fold the hands and acquiesce, O shame!
Stand up, speak out
and bravely, in God’s

HOLY CHILD
Ah, dearest Jesus, holy Child,
Make thee a bed, soft, undefiled,
Within my heart, that it may be
A quiet chamber kept for Thee.
My heart for very joy doth leap,
My lips no more can silence keep,
I too must sing, with joyful tongue,
That sweetest ancient cradle song,
Glory to God
