Repent and Turn
Repent and turn! God calls today;
Oh, do not close thine ear, I pray!
Listen! It is the voice of love –
Grieve not that tender heart above.
Repent and turn! Now is the hour,
The time of God’s redeeming power;
Tomorrow it may be too late.
Just now wide open is the gate.
Repent

On Tuesday night, we went around to a friend's place with a group of young leaders to share with them some insights – you know, from the vast accumulated wisdom of our years (Just joking – more like from the mistakes we have made). They did something so precious to us – they gathered around at the

SPIRIT: A LIFE CHANGING FORCE
There are those who think the Spirit is a thing. They view Him as a lifeless blob that God sets inside of us that doesn’t physically affect us during our lives.
They tend to view God’s Spirit like a coin you put in a pop machine or a candy machine. The coin goes in

THE ROPE HELD by ADELA ROGERS ST. JOHNS
Sometimes on sunny days, when I could see my way and feel the pathway firm under my feet, I wondered--Would the rope hold if the worst happened?

CHOICE AS A DISCIPLINE
Your will enables you to choose. Choose wisely. He who marries the spirit of the age will soon find himself a widower.
God asks no one whether he will accept life. This is not the choice. The only choice you have as you go through life is how you will live it.

"The fear of man is being more impressed with man's reaction to our actions than with God's reaction. That's bondage. When we have the fear of God upon us, we are impressed only with God's reaction. We are freed from the concern of what people think. That's freedom! That's release! That's great
