                    GRANT AND CUSTER
There is a story of two Civil War Generals:  George A. Custer and Ulysses S. Grant.  Both graduated from West Point -- Gen. Grant, being the oldest, graduated in the 1840's and Gen. Custer in 1861.  Grant fought in several wars and was a field General in every sense of the word.

                    GREATER THINGS
You know, for me, one of the most intriguing promises Jesus ever made was this: "I tell you the truth, anyone who has faith in me will do what I have been doing. He will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father." John 14:12

                    WHAT WILL YOU DO WITH JESUS THIS CHRISTMAS?
Many years ago in the countryside of Bethlehem the townsfolk prepared for just another day, though this day was quite extraordinary.  The shepherds were out tending to their sheep and the Jewish nation was feeling the restraints of Roman oppression.

                    Some time ago I returned from a missions trip completely full of faith and ready to set the world on fire with the love of Christ. During my first church service back in the states I was asked to close our service in prayer. I joyfully obliged and went whole-heartedly into prayer full of faith and
