THE THRONE OF CHRISTMAS
In the very centre of Christmas cheer, amidst the silver bells, coloured baubles and lights, enormous sparkling chandeliers, banners and wreathes and beside a gigantic Christmas tree, there in the middle of everything stands a huge throne that dominates the centre of the

"I'm No Moses!"
When I received my call to go into ministry, I was praying. Immediately, I rejected the call, telling God that I was a business person, not really minister material. I knew how to speak about marketing. I knew a bit about managing people. I could talk about that. On and on I

HOW YOU FINISH
James was excited as he turned the two hundred mark heading towards home. Two and three-quarter laps had gone and he was still in the lead. His one and only goal was to win this race and he was full of confidence that he could do it. His thoughts race ahead to the podium, the

The caste system is a unique feature of the Hindu religion. The account of its origin is an interesting story. Brahma created Manu, the first man. From Manu came four different types of people, as the creator Brahma determined. From Manu’s head came the Brahmins, the best and most holy people.

In the Movie At First Sight, not only does Jesus make man's eyes, but he also creates in the man’s brain the necessary apparatus to see. As neurologists will tell us, this man is the recipient of a double miracle. Not only did Jesus fix his optic condition, but he also installs in the man’s brain

One of my favorite football stories is credited to Vince Lombardi of the Green Bay Packers. It’s probably an urban or sports legend but I still like it...
It seems that there was a rookie running back (Paul Horning?) who celebrated wildly in the end zone when he made his first professional

HE DIDN'T LIFT US UP TO LET US DOWN
The Christian group the Imperials recorded one of my favorite songs over 20 years ago. It is called, “He Didn’t Lift Us Up To Let Us Down.”
“He didn’t bring us this far to leave us.

I like what Jesse Duplantis says about it, he says that we were all made of dirt, that there’s white dirt, red dirt, yellow dirt, brown dirt, and black dirt, so we all came from the same place, we’re dirt. We would think that it crazy if we saw one clump of dirt telling another clump of dirt"I’m

GUARDED BY THE SHEPHERD
Charles Spurgeon says this about the Great Shepherd:
What is there in you, dear friend, more than there is in any other professor, why you should not prove an apostate after all? What is there about me that I should stand where so many others have fallen?

PRAYING THE 23rd PSALM
Because Thou art my Shepherd,
I commit my needs to Thee.
Provide green pastures for me to lie in,

Through the valley of the shadow of
