THIS I KNOW
After the Communist Government of China kicked out all foreign Missionaries, most contact with China was cut off. A lot of people wondered if Chrisitianity would die out completely. In 1972, a group of American Christians were thrilled to receive an unusual message from contacts in

George Foreman: "The truth is, my relationship with God is the reason I have such a positive outlook on life. Before I found Christ I was blind...but when Jesus came into my life, He opened my eyes and started showing me all the good things that I couldn't see previously. God changed my heart and

Pressing Through the Pain
Too many young Christians expect endurance to come quickly and easily.
We bought a trampoline this summer for the girls. I love it too. The first time I got on that thing I thought I would have a heart attack. I've been using my legs for 40 years, but they were on

CLEANING UP OUR WOUNDS
Moira, Stephen and I love watching ‘Casualty’ on BBC1. We were catching up on an old episode this week, so please turn away if you’re squeamish! (But I won’t show you my scars!) A lady had an open wound in her foot. As the nurse rolled back her thick socks to reveal the

MIRACLES
I’m reminded of the poem by Clay Harrison entitled "Miracles:"
"Miracles can be large or small
according to God’s Plan.
And they need no explanation
for the unbelieving man.
The heavens declare His Glory;
the harvest proclaims His Love.

One day as my two year old daughter and I had finished our shopping at the mall, I was walking ahead of her continually asking her to "hurry up." I wanted to get home, but she was enjoying all the sights and sounds. As she walked right behind me, I looked back to see my daughter had stopped to

I believe that most everyone in this audience remembers Jim Jones of the Peoples’ Temple Church, or at least have read about him or saw the movie about him. The reason he had so many FOLLOWERS when he began his MINISTRY was because he had CONCERN for people—a GENUINE CONCERN. He showed them

C.S. Lewis said, “The gospel means we can stop lying to ourselves. The sweet sound of amazing grace saves us from the necessity of self-deception. It keeps us from denying that though Christ was victorious, the battle with lust, greed, and pride still rages within us. As a sinner who has been

Our family has been outdoors people most all of my life.
Many of our vacations were camping, hunting, and fishing.
It may be hard for some of you to imagine, but my Mom can be an outdoors lady.
She always caught the most fish and she would always get a good Buck.
One thing we loved as boy’s, and
